leroydb 0 #1 September 2, 2005 MAX regular Tracking We were doing dome "big ways" at the DZ today and really got to do some MAX tracking since we broke at 5k. Well I tried something I had heard before and the technique worked sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went max track and looked between my leggs and watched the formation as I speed away. I was slightly (few degrees) more head down taht usual, but the fwd speed was awesome! That was an awesome visual! I wish I had my camera on. I will hopefully have it tomorrow and will post what I see. Might be old news/boring to some, but if you havent tried it, you might be missing somthing if you dont.Leroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio...

Tonto 1 #3 September 5, 2005 Depending on the size of your bigway, it may be a real good idea to see where you're going, rather than where you were. tIt's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KrisFlyZ 0 #4 September 5, 2005 Yeah. As the flocks get bigger, break off procedures need to be re-addressed. Even though the organizer always says..clear your air space and give a strong deployment signal. Most of us at one time or another are guilty of concentrating on maxing out for maybe too long. If a big formation breaks off and everyone flies for 20-25 secs after breakoff, there may be issues of proximity on opening. Kris. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
