freekflyguy 0 #1 June 15, 2005 Well the pond at my DZ is finally finished. It measures 85m x 10mx 1.4m Attached are some pics of me swooping it for the first time. My technique isnt too hot on this one but I managed to cover about 55m making it out of the end and staying dry. Any european swoopers out there wanna coma and have a go???

Spizzzarko 0 #2 June 15, 2005 When you have a cross wind like that Start your swoop on the side of the pond that the wind is blowing from. Let the cross wind blow you over to the other side of the pond, so that you are not using as much of a canopy correction into the wind to stay in the pond. This will give you a little more distance. Hope this helps out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
