Paralog Performance Competition

The Competition

In the spirit of competitive wingsuiting, wingsuitcompetition.com brings you yet another kind of competition. This time, against the clock or the altimeter.

GPS technology has become prevalent, and through it, we can accurately map many parameters of a wingsuit flight. This now allows us to compare our performance with other wingsuiters.

How does it work?

We want you to upload your GPS tracks so everyone can see how good you are!

In addition, you can compare your own tracks, to see what works and what does not. In effect, competing against yourself.

To get started, select one of the competitions on the right hand side. The tracks are shared between the competitions, but each focusses on a different aspect of the performance.

• Time: the longest freefall

• Distance: the greatest distance

• Speed: the greatest forward speed

How do I enter?

You can participate in this competition if you have a GPS and the software Paralog. After downloading the track in Paralog, you can now upload your performance data to the competition site.

What do I need

You need several things to be able to participate:
• Paralog Software.
• A compatible GPS or freefall logger.
• A computer connected to the internet.

Paralog is used to download the tracks from your GPS or freefall logger (a Neptune, for example), evaluate them and transmit the results to PPC. It is not necessary to purchase Paralog for this, the free trail version can be used.

To upload your track to the competition website using Paralog:
1. Download the information from your device using Paralog.
2. Click on the generated graphs on the lower left corner.
3. Click on the button 'Details...'
4. Click on the button 'Submit to PPC'
5. Edit your details if necessary. For equipment, for example, it is only interesting to know what wingsuit you are flying.
6. Click on the button 'OK'. Please wait while the data is gathered and uploaded. This can take up to 30 seconds.

To view the 3D tracks of the flights, you need Google Earth installed on your Computer.
