make sure not to get stuck just trying one technique for doing a snap. Try all

this manuever requires years of preparation. First you must win both 402
and 403 at the nationals hands down....no doubt about it, back to back
then win Masters the followin year in the same manner. This creates the
desired halo effect which will then allow you simply "roll" through this
manuever without getting a zero.</FONT><FONT size=3> </FONT><FONT

discussions on single snaps (pull elevator first, follow with rudder and

begins, etc., etc.), but I've never seen any discussion specifically
regarding the 1 1/2 snap.</FONT><FONT size=3> <BR> </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2><BR>This year's Masters pattern has the 45 degree down
1 1/2 snap. I've gotten pretty good at both the inverted and upright 45
degree single snap but this 1 1/2 snap is a different animal in that the
up elevator that initiates the snap will cause the nose to drop after
the last 1/2 rotation if it's left in too long. I've not flown it too
many times, but the few times I've tried it I played with pulling out
the elevator and putting in a little down to try and hold the nose on at
45 degree angle.</FONT><FONT size=3> <BR> </FONT><FONT face=Arial
