Wingsuit vs Tandem Skydive

Experience (Swiss) Skydiver Jenna Gygi, takes Austrian Skydiver Johannes Meier on a tandem skydive over the Swedish Grtyttjom dropzone.

Followed out by USA wingsuit pilot Stefan Gilbert, and expert Wingsuit Pilot Jarno Cordia from the netherlands.

The team was in Sweden for a coaching camp, teaching the special skill of flying a wingsuit at steeper angles. Normally wingsuits allow a jumper to gain longer freefalls, and make the body glide long distances through the air.

Through subtle manipulation of the wings, the wingsuits are now aimed downward, flying towards the earth in a headdown spiral. Due to the steep angle, and speed change, it allows the wingsuits to actually keep up with normal freefallers. And in a unique 'first' Jarno Cordia takes a hand dock, on the tandem pair. Flying gripped with tandem skydive and wingsuit.
