  24. My thought isn't that you will outfly the tumble. My thought is that the more experience and skill you have flying your body in different orientations the more likely you will outfly the instability that leads to tumbles. This doesn't mean that tumbles can't or won't happen and that you don't need to know how to recover from them ... You are correct about this Butters. I have had many situations coming off the camera step where Ive been able to merely push off a bit on someone and fly straight out of the burble. However, occasionally you catch some air that you didn't expect, and you are quickly accelerated in the rotational direction.:P Especially if you have a natural arch as I do.. I Spoke to Matt Gould the night of the incident and we had this conversation. In my experience, you can catch the initial rotation of a flat spin and recover from it quickly. But if you miss it, due to poor timing or G forces slowing your response, you can easily exacerbate the situation quickly. I have a rule that I stick to. Unless I really believe I can without a doubt catch the rotation or fly out of it, I will only attempt to do so within the first one and a half revolutions. the risk inherent in attempting to catch it after that point and missing it, is akin to what has happened to both Matt, and Heffro, and im sure a few others along the way. once you miss catching the rotation, you turn yourself in to a human helicopter blade, and it can take more effort than you can exert to recover. Take heed all of you who fly larger suits... Scott Bland and I do just about the same thing with our zips btw. Mine are never closed more than halfway. The suits have more than enough pressure with them totally open, it is only our minds that make us think More = Better, when all it does more often than not is increase the risk, because they do get quite a bit more difficult to collapse when they are closed completely. I have had my share of being "Spun Up" from being hit, bad exits, broken wings, even being peeled off the airplane ~ U name it. Keep on fighting, but more often than not, just ball up... wait for the rotation to slow, open slowly and smoothly.. all you lose is a little more altitude, and a lot of risk.. don't accelerate the problem by not decelerating your brain... when the spin is not stable, i.e. a non constant rotational speed/axis, your chances of catching it before being "spun up" (a quick acceleration of a spin in a similar direction to its original, due to an input by the pilot), are slim to none. Only if the spin is stable, is it relatively safe to attempt to fly out of it. Also, the higher your wingloading on your suit, the exponentially faster you will spin up. just food for thought. Good Job on saving your life Matt~ Good to still have you around! Both of these incidents between Matt and Jeff, had similar injuries, I believe Jeffs may have been a little more intense, but not by alot... he did have to pop his eyeballs back into his head a little though.. Nither of them have a Cypres. Not saying it would work perfectly, but hey, both of them were within 2-5 seconds of Redout, and LOC. I think a grand is pretty cheap life insurance, dont yall?
