You are correct in assuming that their are few injuries at the top level! The reason for this is the people that are at the top were smart enough to take things slow while learning and learned the right way to do things. The key to being a good swooper is patience, common sense, and knowing when to abort a turn if it don't look right. It takes time to learn all aspects of swooping and the people that get hurt are the one's that try to skip important steps in becoming a good canopy pilot. The one's that make it to the top all have put their time in and are extremely safety conscious! Blue skies and safe swoops, Dave Hebert Free Flight is the way of the future!

skydive the farm which will be opening this spring in georgia has two swoop ponds. One is 420'x220' and the other is 300'x200' they are both natural, beautiful and great for beginner swoopers! Free Flight is the way of the future! Learn how and get on board the adventure train!!

loading the 21 that high is actually going to produce short swoops with no bottom end! If you want to load anything that high it would have to be a vx or a 27 xaos. Even with the 27 cell I would reccomend that you buy a canopy that you load at 2.1-2.2. You can always add lead but you can't take it off! Blue skies and safe swoops!

To all you swoopers with questions on this subject, The most important reason for starting your swoop in full flight is not weather or not you get a longer swoop, because a long swoop can be produced from either situation if the pilot flies the recovery arc correctly. The real reason for this type of setup is so that you go into each turn in the same manner so that you can learn to be more accurate with your setup. If you go into each turn with a different airspeed because you are in brakes then every turn will have to be different in order to produce the desired result. If you go into every turn in full flight then every turn will be theoretically the same, as long as you are at the proper altitude when you initiate the turn. And being in full flight every time will also let you judge your set up better because your wing is descending at a constant rate. So try to always fly your approach in full flight unless traffic is a factor, and you will soon understand what I am talking about. Blue Skies and safe swoops.
