“Earlier this year I first heard about wing suit performance competitions. At the time I only had 80 wing suit jumps in my Swift 2 and really wanted to learn more about wing suit performance. I scrolled the web and found a few articles explaining the competition rules, but only very few articles related to the technical side of it.
I did ask the Squirrel team if there could help me to find someone who could help me understand the discipline. Chris Geiler was the man!!!
As I am based in the UK and very busy with work so I opted for some remote coaching with Chris.
Every time I went flying I use to send him the data of my best jump of the day in each discipline (Distance/Time/Speed).
Chris was then analysing each of my jumps and sent me a 10min video explaining what was right and wrong. He was also setting up my Flysight profiles according to my progression.
2 month later I WON the 2017 UK wingsuit performance national in the rookie category.
Chris is the best coach out there.
Keep charging.”

“Hi Cruza. I am a coach myself and I have to say that your course was spot on. I have been watching all the videos a lot and the amount of information I got out of it is amazing. Couldn't be happier with the results. A great learning experience while being fun. Awesome flyer and a great teacher. Thank you!”

“Learn from the best!
Prior to lessons with Cruza I considered myself experienced at 600 or so wingsuit skydives and around 200 wingsuit BASE, mostly in advanced suits. However, being self taught I had developed several habits that made my flight inefficient. Cruza helped me correct several of these habits and I saw my performance improve dramatically! In addition to dialing in my performance, I learned the intricacies of the flysight. If you want to maximize your performance you MUST understand how to use that doohickey. I don't know anyone who understands the numbers and how to interpret them as well as Cruza, and I'd still be using the flysight sub-optimally had he not taught me. The bottom line: He's a great coach, a friendly guy, knows what he's doing, will save you a lot of time/jump tickets/pain, offers a service very few can provide. Beginner or advanced, he can make you better!

“Chris Geiler ... after a week end coaching course he helped me to get the third place in my wingsuit performance nationals! I'm one of his remote coaching student and I'm very happy to have a world champion giving me first class advice. A true humble champion and a friend. Thanks for everything.
(sorry for my english ahaha)

“Being a fairly old man coming into the sport of skydiving I have seeked out a lot of coaching to help with my progression. My whole reason was to get into wingsuiting. I quickly and probably to quickly, sized up my wingsuit. Learning to fly in a bigger suit is a lot harder than smaller suits. When I heard of Cruza and the WOWS (Wide Open Wingsuit Series) camp I signed up. With two jumps he was able to help me fly a lot more efficient and in more control to give me an edge in the camp. The camp introduced me to fly sight and helped me to get into wingsuit competition. I look forward to training more with Cruza in the future, as his coaching skills are top notch and so are his piloting skills. If you want to be the best then train with the best. He is one of them!

“I just completed two amazing days of 1 on 1 coaching with Cruza (Chris Geiler) assisted by Will Kitto. The goal was to learn how to fly my new C-Race and refine wingsuit competition profiles. The list is very, very short of those that that can keep an experienced wingsuit performance flier in video frame from exit to deployment during 85 degree head-down dives, 3.5 glide ratio no-wind distance runs, and flares gaining a couple hundred feet. I have actually never watched video of myself doing time, distance and speed wingsuit runs and I just got to see it 9 jumps in a row coupled with full Flysight graphical data analysis after every flight. I can't recommend this coaching highly enough. What a game changer. Thanks for the world champion level mentorship, gents, and the friendship!
