How did the Lodi Ninety Meet start?
The Parachute Center of Acampo / Lodi (often known as Skydive Lodi) does not
tolerate "any turn below 500 feet in excess of 90 degrees that takes less than 5
seconds."
This begs a question, "How fast can a canopy go with just a 90 degree turn?"
How much performance can a good canopy pilot squeeze out of a 90 degree
swoop? 25% of canopy terminal? 50%? 90% 100%?
The organizer of the meet just HAD to find out, thus the world's first 90 degree
swoop money meet.
It was held on 11/14 - 11/15, 2009 at Lodi.
