clustermagnet 0 #1 October 6, 2008 Guys, when doing a right spiral, the canopy first turns in, but after doing 2 360s wants to level out, and not continue the spiral... is this the usual line trim issue? Sabre 1, 230 :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DALAILAMA 0 #3 October 7, 2008 It is normal. When you first start your turn, the body being thrown out to the opposite side of the canopy increases the speed of the turn because you are loading the risers more with the centrifical force. It is gyration and oscelation...Sorry about the spelling! Because you are not loading the canopy very heavy, eventually you will (swing) back under the wing or canopy making the turn seem less productive."Dropzone.com, where uneducated people measuring penises, has become an art form" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
