Right Rotation Approach Videos...POST HERE!

[freeflyit 0]

I want to see your right side rotation approaches....270's and 450's.

Let's limit it to ones that crush the target only. 'Cmon, time to brag :)

[skow 6]

There's some good approach in this video. Not sure why the pilot decided to bail at the end...

I was that kid jumping out if his tree house with a bed sheet. My dad wouldn't let me use the ladder to try the roof...

Here's a quick compilation of some of my rookie katana swoops, all right hand.

Why ask what height one starts one's turn? It would appear considerably more important at what height one decides to finish it.

From mid 2015 season after about 10 450s.

Yeah, the pause before snapping the last 180 is a tad too much on these turns.

Top end looks a little quick as well but, I don't do 450º so, IDK.

That´s Skydive Spain (Aerodromo la Juliana in Seville) if I am not mistaken

At what height did you do your set-ups? What exit weight or WL had you got?

Hola amigo. Si es Skydive Spain. The setup has minimum height of 700ft, the best is around 780ft. Exit weight is around 87kg and WL on KA120 around 1.6 I guess.

You jump here with us?

Forgive my ignorance but can anyone explain the purpose of the pause before the 180 snap? I see a (well two!) pause(s), albeit slightly shorter in this video, so it seems to be a desirable component of a swoop?

Glad to say the vid is on topic being a 630 right handed approach! ;-)

The jury is still out on whether its the best technique or not, however I was taught that it gives me a better chance of getting entirely vertical just before my roll out. I've tried a bit back and forth and for me this "feels" right and I've been getting better results across all three disciplines with this technique.
Do note that the pause in my video was too long as I had just started to do them and wanted to exaggerate.

In addition to having a better chance on getting the dive angle right, I also use it as a "check point" in the turn as I divide my turn up into several stages for training purposes.

Thank you sir, very interesting!

[Brutus 1]

I did and I will in the near future.
I got injured and need to build my foundation again on the canopy hook turns

Here's a vid from this past weekend. RH 270 on a Valkyrie 103. Slightly high on the roll out but that's my tendency these days.

Hey, what's your starting altitude at the top and at the snap? (For these jumps in particular)

[sswain 0]

Here are a few jumps from the past weekend...this is a new to me VK96. I have only put 10 jumps on it so far. All right hand 270's.

WL: 2.6
RH 270 @ 710'

The first one looked good ;) JK...good job. I'm good with 270, trying to understand 450.

[AdD 1]

700' is too low for 270 with a VK at 2.6. I'm above 800 and only loading 2.3... just my opinion.

[danielcroft 2]

Really depends on the type of turn you're doing. Flare start, no fronts, full speed start... etc.

I do my 270º from 850 (maybe should be a little lower) at sea level VK75PS loaded at 2.4.
