Skyjester 0 #1 November 9, 2007 Ha Ha- the other day I have had the idea to put weights on my ankles,because the upper body is too heavy-to change the bodyposition makes no sense. (just have a look to "fly like brick" - flight manual no.7) So I used 6 kg of weight, 3 kg each and my common flock partners wasn´t able to follow me, while I´m flying fully relaxed bodyposition. It´s quite simple. Every plane is balanced. Over the angle from ankle to center of body a small weight can change a lot . . . I stop explaining . . . I´m sure you can do that by yourself. If you try that- do dummy-pulls, pulling is slightly different.don´t pester the jester . . or better: WHY SO SERIOUS ? ? www.pralle-zeiten.de Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
