Awesome Ketch. I'm very stoked for you and Joseph and for who else will join the ride. I'm sure that using all these vehicles will be a blast for the final images. I'm curious to what kind of stabilization you are able to use.

Have a great time and thanks in advance for letting us follow your ride a little;)
 
That's awesome Ketch, just the kind of stuff I like! I hope someday I can work along side you and a team on a project like this. Best of luck, sounds like you guys are going to have a blast with this one.

He he, don't worry about our last lunch experience Andrew... It happens... What is important is that we got to meet up, and I very much enjoyed your company,
and appreciated you taking the time to come get me at Media City and show me around Dubai, very impressed of the Palm Island and the Atlantis.

Can't wait to be back, and for sure we'll hook up, but most likely will be for Dinner, as I'll be booked solid working hard all Lunches till I leave... ;)


Be sure that if we ned anything we'll place a call on to you buddy!!
 
Ketch, have you skydived with EPIC before? I'm a little worried if hard chute opening could damage something inside the camera...

I would not worry about g-force.

The Epic is mostly solid state. The only moving parts are for cooling. There is plenty of airflow on the way down.

The fans are user replaceable.

The chances are slim to none I think.

I mean the sudden stop when you pull your chute. Sometimes it's from 200km/h to 5km/h in a fraction of second.

Hey Josh, as my buddy Michael said, no problems expected, as one of our Skydiver Master, Joe Jennings, has done this before with the R1, and has been doing it for a while with his Epic M... ;)

Don't worry . Joe does this in his sleep. Joe has jumped with all formats of film including 16mm and 35mm . Id put my money on a mechanical film camera crapping out before a solid state camera in frefall. He has been jumping with the Epic on his head for a little while now. Check out this other footage.

This one of a parachute on fire - shot with the Epic [video]http://www.skydive.tv/burn911.htm[/video]
Check out the behind the scenes video of a laptop commercial in free fall which was Joe's first experience jumping with the Epic and shows Joe in action. http://www.skydive.tv/business.html
