  5. if you want a safe freefly friendly container good for big and small get an infinity. the main flap will never come open in freefall and expose your pin. i am small and have one and love it. my husband is big and has one and loves it. He is 210 lbs, 6"

    good luck!

    There are some really creative points on there. hard to choose...but the artwork needs a bit of improvement ;)



    Once the new moves have been chosen by vote, the vrw4way.com team is going to do proper animated drawings just like the previous divepool and submit them to the IPC. To do the drawings for all the submissions would have taken too long. If you have any skills for assiting them I'm sure they'd appreciate it.

  10. Hi all,

    If you compete or fly VRW, go to vrw4way.com and vote. The voting window is closing and we have posted the voting page. You have until mid-night on Saturday the 24th to cast your vote! Sorry, but the IPC meeting is on the 27th and we need to create nicer pictures for the new dive pool. Please send this to any VRW fliers that would like to have input and thanks so much to all that submitted formations.

    May the best moves win!

  12. Working on drive backslide is best with a coach, but if you are stuck doing solos not only work on feeling the air on your front and back, but also the visual of the changing horizon. When you are falling straight down in a straddle with knees slightly bent, toes flexed and forward and shoulders over hips and head over shoulders you should see the horizon level. When you backslide bring your knees and toes forward and you should see more ground. When you change to driving forward push your heels back in relation to your hips and you should see more sky. Work on going back and forward more dramatic at first, then try to bring the control level in and eventually know what going straight down is. If you can be at the Vancouver boogie this summer, Dusty Smith will be there and he can help you.
    Make sure when you are doing this you are perpendicular to jumprun, or at minimum give alot of horizonal seperation in case you end up tracking up or down line of flight by accident.

  13. Hey Al & Brad,

    Looks like the next Head down skills camp with Amy & Curtis will be the weekend of February 17 & 18th at Skydive Arizona. This is a tentative date right now but will be confirmed soon. It is the weekend before the Freefly Money Meet so people travelling from out of town can come for both we hope!

    I'll keep you posted as soon as the dates are confirmed.

  20. Hey Samantha!

    Its an all around camp for girls and guys but Amy will be coaching along with Steve and it be the same format as the girls camps to get ready for the 2007 Women's World Record. Girls can practice for the record and guys can just work building more skills.

    Hope you can come out to play!
