Loop and Roll!

21/01/2007 by Pudsey.

After all the excitement of yesterday I needed to have a rest today… so I had a long lay-in! My head has now stopped spinning from all those aeros (Nigel keeps saying it’s just the tip of the iceberg… what does he mean?) The roll was brill and is a good move to start with as it’s over so quickly (and I sort of had my eyes open… I was peeping - one eye open and one eye closed!) - if you want to experience it yourself, there’s a video on the website taken from inside the cockpit - and yes, that’s exactly what it’s like!! The loop was good and I was looking forward to this after the roll - so I had both eyes open! You start by diving down to pick up speed and then pull up into the loop - all I could see out of the window was blue sky going up!… then the blue sky changes and becomes land - UPSIDE DOWN - weird!! I then closed my eyes at that point!! Again, there’s a video on the website from inside the cockpit… can’t watch it without closing my eyes yet!!
