| I'm about 15 minutes away from sustained sit flying. But my arms KILL! I've heard a lot of advice on sit flying, and as we all know, we all fly differently, but the latest (from an instructor) was that your arms shouldn't hurt once you're airborne. I just don't believe this. I'm 5'8" 175lbs and sit flying at about 135mph. I can stay off the net for about 5 - 10 solid seconds.
So how about you all? Arms hurt? Does more wind = less strain in the arms? |

| | My arms hurt a lot more initially than they do now, although I'm still working up to sustained endurance for long periods of sit-flying. It's funny, though--when you stop fighting the wind and fly it instead, the strain on your muscles goes way down. I had to think more about flying with my back than my arms. Maybe that would work for you, too. Sounds like it will come together for you soon! |
