“I would explain the difference between a descender dressed « normaly » (Jean’s and tee-shirt) and a descender dressed with a bodysuit. So, in first time, normally dressed we have made 3 downhill tests with the average of 2 GPS.In second time, bodysuit dressed we have made 3 another downhill tests with the same GPS, as a result we have find a difference between the tests of 10 km/h on 700 meters.”
