Fastrax Blue
Episode
013 (time=01:45)
One Meet
Fastrax Blue. They are an all girl 4-way
competition skydiving team. Yes, this is a
real sport and a 4-way is one of the
categories/disciplines. We catch the girls
training in the Perris Valley Wind Tunnel.
Tunnels are great for training because you can get
many skydives worth of practice in a very short
period of time. One skydive=one minute of
freefall training but it takes a lot more time for
the entire jump experience (~40mins). Wind
Tunnels are continuous but you still need breaks as
it's a real workout to fly this much.
Stay tunes for
more teams, more diciplines, and more girls kick'n
it!
See our "Lindsay"
episode 005, for an introduction to wind tunnels.
Please
tell Ellen DeGeneres you'd like to see "SKYDIVERGIRLS on

SKYDIVERGIRLS follows real
life girls through their

on
the
sport of Skydiving, we share
why we continue to jump from
perfectly good airplanes and
what makes this a sport
anyway. Learn about
the many disciplines and
safety measures. Meet

world champions. Most of us
consider skydiving to be a
little nutz at best but once
you become familiar with all
of the science, technology,
and training, it all makes
sense. Then we
introduce the people and
their passion for the sports
show of our generation.
