“Flight Line” – The awesome new wingsuit series by WWL with the best wingsuit pilots in the world. Ep 5 starring Jokke Sommer.

“Flight Line” Ep 5: Jokke Sommer started skydiving in the summer of 2007 with the modest goal of having fun with a sport he had dreamed of doing for many years. He liked it so much that he wanted more and eight months after he started, he went to the USA for two months to make enough skydives to start BASE jumping. When he stepped off the edge of a 1,000-meter cliff in Kjeragt, Norway, a few months later, he knew that he had found his biggest passion in life. Jokke soon became known around the world as one of the most intense, driven wingsuit BASE jumpers around, and he just as quickly set new standards for aggressive flight lines and proximity flying. Jokke placed 10th in the 2012 Grand Prix and he is again certain to be one of the most intense competitors at this year’s race – and one of the funniest too!

The World Wingsuit League (WWL) was formed to meet the demand of “proximity flyers” for competitions that tested their skills not just against the mountains but against each other. It administers invitational wingsuit flying competition events worldwide.
