wildblue 7 #26 October 10, 2002 QuoteAll the lurkers leave at 4500ft. At 4000, the people in the raft lean out one side and roll (determine which side in the dirt dive) and track apart. A really cool tip I picked up from Scotty while lurking his raft dirt dive at WFFC this year: Inside people always roll to the left - you've got a hackey on your right that would love to snag part of the raft on its way by. In all the raft dives we've done, that thought's never crossed our mind. Thanks Scotty!it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd prefer to get out of the raft by 4500 at least. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A little extra comfort is always good. I like the "always roll to the left" idea. Thanks, I will add that to my raft "notes" list. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
