lol you guys 
The slowest (also largest) wingsuit ever made has a vertical descent of ~30mph + a horizontal of 100mph+. There is no possible way to land a wingsuit without a canopy.

Ski-BASE was popular a long time before wingsuits were invented. The moment wingsuits were invented, ski-wingsuit-BASE was born.
All the shit happened at the same time.

Jeb Corlis and luigi Cani are trying to make this happen... Actually...
Jeb = World famous BASE Jumper Luigi = World Famous Canopy Pilot.
(Jeb is a cool guy I meet him before... BASE Jumping saved his life... Great Story)

And here is Luigi Cani flying the Worls smallest Parachute...
That parachute flies as fast as a wing suit falls... so landing a wingsuit is not totally impossible
Check it out:

 (Jeb Corlis on left in the Wingsuit, Luigi Cani is Right under the Parachute)
And here is the Video of Luigi Cani Flying the world smallest Parachute:

Yeah I got to meet Jeb too we talked a tiny bit about his wingsuit landing project but he kept get stolen away by hoes.
Luigi never comes to Australia to skydive so I haven't had a chance to meet him. I tend to not follow his stuff besides when he does the VX canopy jumps.

Yeah Jeb knows how to the ladies... everytime I have seen him there seems to be some skydive groupie wanting to His nuts...
Luigi Cani is kind of a pretty boy IMO... I attended his Canopy Piloting school years ago and he is a typical Italian. Egotistical, Treats Women like shit, and Looks Greasy. (My Opinion)
I always wanted to Jump Australia... And stay after hours on a DZ for beer and a bar-b-que Hopfully I can make it down under someday! Maybe we will run into each other and not even know it
