michaelflying 0 #1 August 28, 2003 A layout in a stand and end in a stand not a sit, any suggestions on how to do it I can get it right but very wobbly. Need to get it to get c licence any suggestions.?www.skydivekzn.co.za Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WrongWay 0 #2 August 28, 2003 What the hell? Since when did freefly come into the license requirements for a C license? Dude, somebody is screwing with you. Do your requirements on your belly, it's easy, no sweat. I'd try to help with the layout, but I can't even begin to put what I'm thinking into words.

michaelflying 0 #3 August 28, 2003 I have only really done free fly did my cat2 flat then started free flying and am getting c licence through freestyle to go 4 jumpmaster rating. i can do the layout but want to get hints on a smoother transition without having to go back into a sit. Need 8 ways 4 C licence on belly and my DZ has a 182 so not likely only at boogies.www.skydivekzn.co.za Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ianmdrennan 2 #5 August 28, 2003 Break the manuever down into pieces. Begin the transition, tuck up your legs, extend your legs just past the 180 degree mark into sit then stand (accelerated obviously). Hard one to explain, but it's not as difficult as you think.

michaelflying 0 #6 August 28, 2003 yeah I usemed that was it from south africa mission to do anything in this countrywww.skydivekzn.co.za Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michaelflying 0 #7 August 28, 2003 I know But the BSR on freestyle say you have to remain in a stand and can't bend your knees or hips. So I come round very fast and battle breaking, back into the stand thanks for advice will just press on and do it shot.www.skydivekzn.co.za Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianmdrennan 2 #8 August 28, 2003 You can do the layout with your legs extended through out the whole manuever (unless this is freestyle this is not the way IMHO to do freeflying transitions - I never did like those CAT tests anyway Break it down into pieces once again: Lay back and let the wind catch your legs (small arch) as your feet reach the 270 (horizon) mark lean your chest forward to stop the rotation. Throughout the transition keep your hands out at your sides in the "T" position and keep your legs straight. Hope this helps, Blue skies Ian ps: Next time I come and visit my folks in SA I'll stop by MaritzBARRAH and we can do some jumps if you're still there.Performance Designs Factory Team Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
