    Line twists and tracking.

    I had a rather scary experience last weekend. I had line twists. Can anyone give any pointers as to what could have caused it?

    My theory is:
    - slight rotation on opening.

    Any other possibilities?

    On tracking does Yuri have any pictures of his optimal track?

    Is it like a birdman position?

    Well, from my birdman expierence with my stiletto. FLY the opening!!! You should be able to pull in a track and fly the opening even though it's quick as fuk.

    RE: Line twists...

    There are two kinds of line twists:

    A) your opening was greater than 180 deg off-heading. Usually caused by trash-packing or bad body position or bad luck.

    B)Induced line twists. Your opening was relatively on heading, but your body position was so bad that you rotated in the saddle AFTER line stretch.
