An alternative to the standard spiral dive is the Asymmetric Spiral. The asymmetric spiral requires supervised practice, but is considered by some to be a safer alternative to the standard spiral dive. An asymmetric spiral utilizes a series of brake and release inputs that results in a rapid descent without running the risk of entering a stable spiral dive. Supervision at a maneuvers clinic is strongly recommended for learning this or any rapid descent method.
Quick Review
Entry: Enter spiral, then exit, and repeat for practice.
Exit: Remain in exited stage of asymmetric spiral.
