hookitt 1 #28 December 10, 2002 Extremely aggressive 360 carve. It's very steep and dives for a long ways. LOTS and LOTS of front riser input, and the degree of input depends on outs altitude and sometimes my attitude the day. almost 3000 jumps on 97 stiletto with 1.7 to 1.8 wingload. Bunches of jumps on lots of other tiny canopies, up to 2.8 wingloading. It feels good to hang your hands back like Rickster is doing in the picture. That's allMy grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skygod7777 0 #30 December 13, 2002 well a hook (to me) is when you get flat with the horizon. a carve is when you never get completly flat with the horizon, but still pick up speed. most look at a hook at a violent turn that whips you around. and a carve is slower. later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cobaltdan 0 #31 December 13, 2002 basically the center point for your rotation is much further away from you in a carve. sincerely, dan<><>Daniel Preston <><> atairaerodynamics.com (sport) atairaerospace.com (military) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
