The perfect tool for the cameraman. With the help of the suit’s wings, he can precisely adjust to the different fall rates of teams / tandems. The fall rate is directly and rapidly varied by adjusting the wing position. The camera suit can be ordered with small or large wings, depending on it’s intended use and the jumper’s body mass. The small wings extend from the lower arm to the waistline. They are constructed with double layered nylon material. The swoop cords are used to tension the wings. We recommend this version for small, light camera persons. The large wings extend from the lower arm, past the waistline and are attached at the mid-thigh with clips. The wing tension can be set using the swoop cords and the lower wing attachment tapes. We especially recommend this version for tandem video men and women weighing 70 kg or more. The choice of material for the front of the suit and the cut of the lower arm influence the rate of fall, (RW Suits). Nylon suits have a smooth surface and therefore a faster rate of fall than polycotton suits. Spandex lower arms result in a faster rate of fall than polycotton lower arms. The camera jumpsuits can of course be fitted out with numerous useful options. The camera suit is also available as a one-piece video jacket; see freefly jacket. |
