Is that climbing due to trajectory or lift?

Easy, trajectory.

And you're welcome to borrow the clip I'd rather learn something than hide it.

What happens if you do not speed up the lower leg and release it later? Lasse, It depends. When the rod leg is angled down and back after a late release of the rod leg the bead chain loop does roll out. You can see in the last video the rate of roll out increases when the rod leg touches the ground...

Do a search for the flexistripper, that's the one Carl used to well, still in produktion.

Hi Gordy

Hi Will Thanks :D I'l try: Targets are double, ½ ameter and 1 meter in diameter, hitting the smaller one gets you 2 points the bigger 1 point, you have one practice cast on each lane and 3 deliveries to score a maximum of 6 points on each of the 7 lanes. 6, 12 and 18 meters are straight line precisi...

Hi Gordy Just for the record, I think I've thrown the yarnline about a couple of hundred times to study how different release times impact looplife, and to be honest, it does not fail... The clip is shot in windstill, as are the two clips of me throwing a orange shootinghead on 4x tippet as holding ...

Hi Gordy

MPR stands for Micro practise rod, it's The thick yarn line that comes with Tim Rajeff 's practice tool. The one I'm handcasting in the clip.

What weight sinking line would you like? Got from leadcore down to a 4weight sinker.

Gordy, I used 4x tippet for the eksperiment, about 10 feet of it.

I'll be happy to redo it with a lighter line, gonna chop up a 3 weight, redo both that and the mpr line in a headwind and again as in the two clips without Wind.

To be honest, I don't think it will make a difference.

Cheers

Hi Gordy I've been using floating shootingheads made from either a 6 weight DT or a 8 weight DT, both have been around 10 meters long. I've done the full blown distance blast with a longer shootinghead with the same results. So far I have been casting in no wind or a back wind. With the MPR line it ...

I can't say I've ever seen a loop cast where that is not true - I guess the minimum is using a thin shooting line behind a shooting head - but always there. Magnus Hi Magnus Well minimum would be setting it free wouldn't it? 18269800 5429252 Gordy's experiment with the loop crashing into a wall and...
