Radikale Head Down Big-Way. Booyah!

Melanie Curtis — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 12:50:37 +0000

Great video of the Radikale head down big-way in Germany (September 2012). Building, flying, and breaking off. Lots of different angles, both inside and outside the formation. Badass feets up right here. Also, check out the 138-way vertical world record here. What’s the largest big-way jump you’ve ever done?

Add in some pretty spot-on freestyle moves and funny video edits at the end and you’ve got yourself a solid skydiving video to start your week off right. TGIM. Should you watch it? Oui, oui!

The Antigravity Machine

Sydney Williams — Wed, 04 Jul 2012 11:50:50 +0000

So here’s the deal: it’s starting to feel like EVERYONE can do this in the tunnel. Well, not quite everyone. But I mean, these guys — Antigravity XP, a vertical formation skydiving (VFS) team — make this look so easy. Every tunnel video I’ve posted lately is just super sick ninja shit and it makes me excited to go drop my hard earned dollars in the tunnel. Well done, Antigravity XP, well done.

Whoa. We think of skydiving as fast and furious, but this video slows us all down and focuses on the pure beauty that is our sport — as seen through the lens of Team 4Loko (now known as STF Block Party). At the very least, check out Angela’s freestyle. Stunning.
