bak_peter 0 #4 August 24, 2006 Lucky there werent any hard objects under the snow. But i looks very fun though, if you have the balls. I don't think my balls are big enough Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites rhys 0 #5 August 24, 2006 some newer aff systems have basic freefly incorporated to teach the safety of it all. why not straight away, but only once 'they' have learned stability on 'thier' belly. many solos and some coaching will get you there quick. if you're not going to do lots of FS then why spend too much time in it, but remember belly flying is still part of freefly!"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, then the world will see peace." - 'Jimi' Hendrix Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Erroll 80 #6 August 24, 2006 Quotesome newer aff systems have basic freefly incorporated to teach the safety of it all. why not straight away, but only once 'they' have learned stability on 'thier' belly. many solos and some coaching will get you there quick. if you're not going to do lots of FS then why spend too much time in it, but remember belly flying is still part of freefly!
