    couldn't agree with you more, good point. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    You guys are giving way to much shit for this in my opinion. i think rhino will learn a lot on this canopy and it will probably make a great transistion canopy into the xbraced world. plus if he doesn't like the characteristics of it he's only out $450, a lot better than $1300 if you ask me. i've never flown a fx, but from what i hear it does sound like you'll be overloading it a little bit but if it suits your flying then go for it. just be safe and continue to do your high alti hop n pop's...later Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    currently fly a vx and for the first probably 400 jumps i did my 270 with all harness and the last 90 degrees or so I would gently add 1 front riser to get my butt in the air higher and get the canopy diving more. now after some coaching with Slaton, i have found out that this is definetly NOT the most powerful way to fly the vx. so now i do a turn with a lot more front riser and harness input, however, it's hard to tell you how i fly by typing it on the computer. Slaton just posted in the tips N tricks of canopypiloting.com about active piloting. read that and really think about every sentance. forgot to add that i have 23'' risers, start in full flight, use risers and harness, and move my leg pads down my leg a little bit Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    i've tried it all: pull-out, pull-down, pull-back, push-inward, push foward, ect. to me it just comes down to comfortability so i do a combination of down and out. go up high and you'll see and feel the changes in canopy with the different types of input you do to rears.

    you know with probably over 300 CRW jumps on a VX docking on velo's, vx's, and xaos's, i have yet to get into a rap. and the times that my canopy has wodded up was because the person on bottom (me most of the time) was in too deep of brakes. lesson learned: faster you fly=more rigded the canopy Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    Just curious to see at what WLing people started to work on "speed inducing" landings or swooping? i would define speed induced landings as something you do to PURPOSELY create more speed with your canopy for landing (ie front riser turns, double fronts, toggle turns, rear riser turns, harness turn, ect.) For me it was 1.2 on a stiletto 150 Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    what do most people focus on at your dz? is it an all RW all the time? all FF? CRW? swooping/canopy piloting? Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    nice shot, just shows you how insignificant we really are in the big scheme of things. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    check out in the back of men's journal kinda cool we got some recognition Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    it does take some getting used to. i went from an alpha to a xfire and thought the riser pressure was enormous. then i went to a vx and thought i was about to die trying to hold the fronts down. now that i've gotten used to it and have a few more "tools" in my bag of tricks its really not that bad. i can hold the fronts down for a full 270 starting from the 700' range.

    that would be the one. just love how calm everything looks, plus black and white pics are cool. hey if you're not filming 4-way or competing in the swoop comp, and if you have time, maybe you could take some pics of some of the swoopers during the competition. but that is if you have nothing else to do Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down

    i was thinking about it but i'm not going to be able to unfortunetly. i'll be heading to byron or davis, which ever one has the swoop comp that weekend. Slip Stream Air Sports Do not go softly, do not go quietly, never back down
