    vertical landing?

    is possible to gain a completly vertical landing with a FOXv-tech?
    if yes, how is the reduction rate? too high for a safe landing?
    we have found a spot but the ####landing zone is quite near on the vertical of the exit(about 80-100feet).
    thanks in advance

    RE: vertical landing?

    Why not just try it from a safe object (dump high, fly to the very start of a good landing area, then try to sink in at as steep an angle as possible)?

    I think you can sink pretty steep with a FOX Vtec, but not quite straight down. With just a little headwind, it ought to be no problem, though (obviously, this may not be possible depending on the object).

    My advice--go somewhere relatively safe, try it and find out. You'll probably learn a lot about both yourself and your gear.
