    It'd be nice to be experienced with Wingsuits but can only get experience from jumping as a Noob. This is also another thing that I don't trust myself doing.

    They deploy their chute, do they not? Obviously the terrain have to be right, ie some decent vertical elevation.

    Yep. They flare a bit to slow down then throw the chute. But, they’re base jumpers so it’s insanely low.

    Here’s another landing
    https://youtu.be/dRB-woVjlFY

    I’d try this with a chute but I don’t think I want to land in the water or cardboard boxes. Lol.
