bhale 0 #2 April 22, 2002 Booties do take some getting used to. You really have to fly with legs up more, to prevent unwanted forward drive. Forward movement/tracking with booties is much more dymanic. Really watch the additional speed you'll have when approaching formations. I love the additional range they provide.

Gives you even more mental amo for "why you need to skydive!" practice, practice, practice Fly Your Slot ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AiRpollUtiOn 0 #5 April 24, 2002 In dutch saying "RW" sounds normal, saying "FS" on the other hand sounds kinda stupid.I don't get it, we use expressions from different places, for instance, no one says sit-fly over here, it's chute assis, as JB Olivier (supposedly the inventor) called it @ espace boogie -Vichy Will jump for beer, bs AiRpollUtiOn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
