steveorino 7 #1 August 7, 2006 Look at image # 90 and decide before you vote. Did he or didn't he? Then look at the next pix. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steveorino 7 #3 August 8, 2006 Sure I did! Her feet and my butt were about 10 inches off the ground but, we surfed it out and I popped it up. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matthewcline 0 #5 August 8, 2006 That was what I was thinking, but wasn't going to ASS U ME, . It is pretty much how I land any way. A "swoop" and drag/bleed off speed with the feet and then "pop" the last bit of power in the flare to stand and stop, USUALLY at the Vid Kids feet!An Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveorino 7 #6 August 8, 2006 Well, it may not have been pretty but we ran it out after I swooped us up. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WILDBILLAQR 0 #7 August 8, 2006 I voted after seeing #90, but the angle on the canopy & your body looked like you could save it. If I had seen the other pics 1st I might have voted different! ---------------------------------------------- "Thats not smoke, thats BUCKEYE!!"

JohnMitchell 16 #8 August 8, 2006 Just don't let them F-@# up your knees doing that kind of stuff. It's funny when you're telling them "Okay, stand up, no really, stand up now, okay put your feet on the ground and stand up now, we've stopped." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveorino 7 #9 August 8, 2006 Yeah, I can imagine. She kept her feet up the whole way until I said "run". Then we looked kinda goofy with me straddling her running the thing out. You probably can't tell but I was holding her up by the side of her arms as we ran in case she stumbled. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
