HydroGuy 0 #1 July 2, 2005 totally cool...I just have to concentrate hard on my feet...my damn right foot has a mind of its own! Needs some polishing so I'm not sliding all over, and I want to bring my arms forward...but that will come with time. Have some cool vids and screenshots, but I'll spare everyone another noob sitfly picGet in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmason81 0 #2 July 4, 2005 Good job brother, upright flying is probably the hardest position to fly. Two ways are your best bet to improve your skill. Keep at it brother.pull low, fly fast, PLF! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FFlyer 0 #3 July 4, 2005 Well done, thats great!! Just as bmason81 said, 2ways are definitly the way to go. But make sure you are comfortable and completely stable so you are not a danger to anyone else in the sky. Solo's are great to learn the basics, but I made the mistake of doing too many solo's and now im definitly seeing how much I need to learn in terms of flying relative to others. Have fun!

outlawphx 1 #6 July 4, 2005 I got some coaching this weekend on my sit, but I still wasn't able to hit it I'd like to check out your newbie sit pics too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HydroGuy 0 #7 July 4, 2005 Thanks for the encouragement everyone. If I don't get too drunk in the upcoming hours, I'll be @ Perris tomorrow morning. Going to hit the tunnel for a 10 minute sit session, and follow it up with a bunch in the sky. I look forward to being stable enough to do some two ways with someone other than my coach or fly base for a group of more experienced flyers...Get in - Get off - Get away....repeat as neccessary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydvr69 0 #9 July 20, 2005 As a flat-flyer, is "transitioning to a sit" documented anywhere? I'm interested in trying, but don't know where to start... Thanks.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
