Yeah man, good fights.

well it's waaaay high enough from sea level, what is the cliff face like? You'd need a bit of vertical to get tracking.

If you're really good with this specific wingsuit you can start gliding a 3:1 ratio with as little as 140m drop

check this vid out for totally insane low starts...

That's insane!!! The adrenaline rush must be crazy on those jumps.

Those guys could definitely jump from some of the spots there.

I've been up it twice now, one of my favorite hikes out here in Hawaii. My other two favorites are the Pali Notchs


And three peaks


I live out here, I get to do it whenever I'm not feeding my Aces High addiction :aok

Awesome place to hunt. If that is a bowtech soldier I have the same bow, couldn't quite make it out.
