  1. Only a few days and and a few slots left. The GSO is from 29th to 30th of June, at TakeOff in Fehrbellin, Germany. All information at www.swooping.de See you soon. nina
  2. I found out my right hand turns are more consistent than the left. So in competition I choose between 270 and 450 degrees to have the possibility to approach from both sides. nina
  3. If you visit the north of Germany this is the place you mustn't miss. Very open, friendly and expirienced staff. All staff are active jumpers. High standards in all disciplines. Coaching and people to jump with in all disciplines. The place to host the first german swooping competition! Hoping to meet you thereÉ

    Vengeance

    I just did about ten jumps with a Vengeance 97 while normally jumping a Stiletto 107. Had a great time getting much more swoops out of it. But will need a smaller one. My exit weight is between 140 and 150 lbs. My rigger, who lent the canopy to me, told me to be aware of dives to the right after opening. It started doing those dives after great soft openings. When I discussed that with the owner he told me what PD had told him. A parachute is an individual. I found that after the next jumps (anyway always hands on risers and no change in the packing-method) the canopy began to know me or other way round. I obviously learned to push down the left leg to stop it from diving. It never dove again. What a beautiful storyÉ I love this canopy Ñ thanks Brian. nina
