Key word is BELLY. No its not ff. If you can do 160 on your belly you need to go on a diet!

wngarner 0 #5 August 5, 2008 just roll over...apparently your belly is the only surface you can fly to be omitted from FF....or just tumble wildly...that should cover enough surfaces to be considered FF...and then if people ask, tell em that at some point you seem to recall being possibly most likely head down and then flash 'em the 180 mph on your ditter and dare those floaty bastards to challenge you... - ever the spazz Your work is to discover your world, and then with all your heart, give yourself to it...

rhys 0 #13 August 12, 2008 Quote I'm having a bit of trouble with that one, even intermediate freeflyers have no trouble what so ever in handling a 2 way star. in the speed rounds at world championship level i have seen teams making spocks, vertical compresses accordians etc really fast but they can take a little longer getting the belly star, not that they can't do it, it just looks more akward than the more complicated tricks sometimes. That is not the case for most of the teams though, I think the world record will be broken at the world meet this year, some teams can make 20 points now.

Did you pay for it? You can not call a jump you payed for a FREEfly jump. If you did not pay for it, it definantly qualifies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beowulf 1 #15 August 12, 2008 I would consider that I hybrid. The coolest hybrid I have ever seen was a 6 way base with 3 hangers. They then broke it apart into 3 sections, each section with one hanger and turned 3 points. (not sure of the number of points but it was definitely more the 2). I really wish I was on that dive, but I didn't make it out to the dropzone that day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve_Lewis 0 #16 August 12, 2008 That's because of the speed differences, not because they can't do a belly star. Both speed rounds complete in the Maubeuge 2008 championships.

klingeme 1 #18 August 13, 2008 Quoteso if I video a tandem and make money. it's a paidfly? or maybe a workfly? I used to call it flying like a vidiot, but I was filming CReW, so it was fairly accurate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
