Holding Your Gripper, and Positioning the Leading Edge of Your Suit
Holding your grippers correctly is an important part of controlling your CREATURE. The carbon
fiber reinforced end cell allows you to move your hand easily from the top surface to the bottom
surface as you transition and move through maneuvers, while providing an aerodynamic inflated
wingtip which is partially enveloped by your hand. We like to cradle the top of the gripper gently
between thumb and forefinger, or let the top of the gripper rest in our palm. We frequently change
hand position on the gripper as we transition from back to belly flying and back again. It is
NOT
necessary to hold the gripper tightly. You can comfortably fly your suit from exit to deployment with
a very light touch on the grippers. We find it very helpful to place the palm of our hand on the
front surface of the suit while backflying.
