misti flip

Hi every body
Just a question about the misti flip...if you start a misti with a light turn (Morpheus 21) , when you start to pull the break, is it important to put your weight to the same side, or you just have to maintain the center position?? It seems that different kind of technique exist...
Thanks..

Hi!

I would just stay in the center, wait until you pass underneath the wing (pilot symmetrically, straigh down below the center of the glider) and while you are already climbing up you pull the spin. You have to find the right moment, when you still have enough speed, but not too much (if you the glider is too slow, the tip will collapse like in a spin, if too fast, the brake will be really hard to stall the glider and you might end up in a mactwist or kind of dynamic sat...). Once you pulled in, you also have to release gently, just like in a helicopter, to keep the wing open. Then, use the outside brake to stop the rotation and make the glider shoot (more) symmetrical. Hope it helps...

Yes, is better to follow the maneouver with your weight and eyes for a better control and to evite one twist. Try to come on november 14 to Ecuador for "Acrolatino" the next week the web site will be update www.acrolatino.com
