  1. I've seen more than one person femur themselves going to rears during inappropriate situations. This is one of them IMO (inappropriate, not femur). Lately people have gotten obsessed with using rears low to the ground just to be trendy. Toggles are almost always a better option. Unless you have a broken line, the toggles are already in your hand. Plus they offer better slow speed flight characteristics than rears, which if done incorrectly will put you in the hurt locker. Should you learn to use rears? Absolutely. Just look around though, everyone suddenly thinks they need them to land properly. Blues, Ian so are you saying that i made the wrong choice by turning with soft riser imputs because knowing that i also had to flatten out to make it over the camper using a toggle would have most likely pounded me in the ground or slowed my speed to the point were i landed on top of the camper...neither of witch were a choice in my mind at the time...

  3. I can now say that a flat turn saved my ass.... I set up for my landing way to high and ended up between a pond a tree and over a camper and a car also headed for the hanger I had to turn to avoid going in the pond but i was low maybe 25 30 feet. i wish i could draw a pic. of the place i was in but it was not pretty. i had been diving my canopy to try to land short of the pond,but it didnt work and i was goin for the middle of it. there was little room between the pond and the trees to fly so i dropped the fronts when i seen it was not working and grabbed the rears. not pulling yet but i had them in my hands. when i reached the corner of the pond just beside the trees i pulled the right rear a little bit to make my turn then the other to flatten the glide to make it over the camper and the car. i let go of them and flared and landed softly about 20 feet from the hanger... it really scared me but i felt and my instructor who seen it happen felt the same that i made the right choice I don't know if that is the perfect flat turn or not but it kept me out of the hospital... i have seen a couple incedents were flat turns would have saved people but they toggled it and hurt themselves... Now i am glad i spent the time doing altitude hop an pops to learn things like this.... well my rant over... Pruitt Skydive The Farm

  10. Why not get the PF tracking outfit in the meantime? I am still getting mine dialed in (am averaging mid 80's now), but the forward speed is sick and I am having too much fun with it. I've got about 20 skydives with the tracking outfit and I am not even close to getting full performance from it. The learning part is fun though.
