Calvin19 0 #27 September 16, 2006 i believe it would. ir is a good. idea. of course, it would make these cascades become slack while the control lines are being pulled. right? -SPACE- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yuri_base 1 #28 September 16, 2006 yeah, they will be tensioned very little in full flight and slack when steering lines are pulled. They can also cascade higher than slider grommets, to avoid thick knot at the cascade. The question is, will they really work? If they cascade too high, they won't prevent unpressurized tail go up. However, they still will reduce the extent to which the tail can go up, by the principle that the triangle's side is shorter than the sum of the two other sides.Android+Wear/iOS/Windows apps: L/D Vario, Smart Altimeter, Rockdrop Pro, Wingsuit FAP iOS only: L/D Magic Windows only: WS Studio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
