Skyper 0 #26 July 5, 2011 QuoteI read the part QuoteWhich means that any snag of the static line to any part of the plane or any part of instructor in the worst case may result in a bit premature opening of the main - and indeed nothing happens. and thought that you were saying that the worst case in SL is a premature, but re-reading I guess you didn't mean that. ohh, I c. I think the sentence was too long. Indeed, in some cases SL can be very nasty as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theonlyski 8 #27 July 5, 2011 QuoteIs there a reason why the instructor turns by pulling only one A line instead of pulling the front riser? Its a technique used in demos too, makes you turn/dive fast."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a technique used in demos too, makes you turn/dive fast. When I was doing classic accuracy it was a technique used to burn off altitude quickly when your flying a boat of a canopy. I was jumping a parafoil 282 loaded at 0.7 and I could get it to turn descend pretty fast this way.Have you seen my pants? it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream >:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
