Doug_Davis 0 #3 September 11, 2014 Ok so what kind of canopies were they flying? How were they able to do 360's over the top of their canopies without hammering themselves into the ground? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 643 #5 September 11, 2014 Awesome footage! Thanks for sharing. How do you barrel-roll those canopies ? How soon til we see barrel-rolling at our local swoop pond? Your swoop pond is way prettier than the swoop ponds at most DZs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 643 #7 September 12, 2014 councilman24 I'm glad someone else doesn't know how this is done. ............................................................ About a decade ago, Performance Designs published video of Stilettos, Katanas, maybe early Velocities doing similar barrel-rolls. Then PD shut up. Maybe they were afraid that amateurs would try to roll too slowly, lose positive Gs, lose line tension, wrap up in their canopies, then make a mistake??????
