I'm currently in a 12 step program for spinnaker flying.

My name is Todd Bouton, and I fly a spin on my cat.

I agree with most of what's been said, especially Wouter's comments.

Before I got to his post, I didn't agree with this major lift thing, especially since:

I'VE STUFFED (PITCHPOLED) AND CAPSIZED MY CAT, MORE THAN ONCE, AND IT WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN AGAIN!
IF THERE'S ALL THIS LIFT (SINCE THERE IS AT TIMES), THEN WHY DO PEOPLE STUFF A BOW FLYING A CHUTE?

(I'll quit yelling now) And I've seen Many, that's right many, others do it also. PI Sailing on their I-20 in Rough Riders, etc.

It ain't ALL Lift!
