My IMAC Freestyle

[f3martin]

Hi guys

Here is my recent Freestyle where I got top points in the Freestyle at an IMAC competition in the North of Spain - Asturias.
I came second in Advanced following winning the freestyle.

Any ideas for improvement are welcome

Awesome flying buddy! You have some amaizing skills! Keep up the good work. Everyone has their style, so what is good for one guy's freestyle may not be good for anothers. Personaly, I like to have more straight lines with all kinds of snaps, point rolls, etc. But, that's just me, and our styles are different.
Your music choices are really good, and you also mixed everything up very well. I really enjoyed watching it, and all around, I think you've got a winner of a routine!
Keep up the good work, and keep practicing new elements, and you'll be up there with the best of 'em!
Congrats on 2nd in the Advanced too! IMAC makes us all better pilots, and it's a lot of fun too!
Have fun, God bless!

I think overall it is a good freestyle. The only thing I saw was much more rolling right than left, but you made it all flow and work together. Nice job.

Hi guys, thanks for the comments!

Danielph, I think I have seen one of your freestyles here on FlyingGiants, awesome, especially the precision on rolls and snaps
I agree that IMAC makes you a better pilot, quick, and that is one of the many reasons why I love it. The pressure makes you concentrate so hard and you improve much more than practice alone. Three years ago if you had said I would win the Spanish Nats twice at National level and 2nd in Advanced in the 3rd year, I would have believed you!
All achieved not only though practice, but the effort and pointers from competing.

jwilliams, I am afraid that even though I can roll both ways, I seem to be happier with right rollers, and end un going for the easy route. i will however try to integrate more left rollers, and maybe more changes in direction

Thanks!!!!

Thanks man! Yes, I love lots of snaps. ;-) It's just me. Fast rolls and snaps. One guy around here calls me "Daniel the 900mph freestyle." LOL I know I need to slow down, but I like speed. :-) Your speed through the routine is great.
Yes, IMAC is great, and I love the pressure. Another thing that's nice about IMAC, is that it's not very dangerous for the plane, but still fun. Keep up the good work man!

f3martin, your routine did show rolling in both directions. I just noticed it predominately to the right, like I said it is a good routine and it was the only thing I noticed, very good job.

Nice freestyle Martin!
freestyle is expressing your oven unique style!keep at it!the only thing i would say is there were a few repetitive maneuvers!and a few pauses or dead spots?make it interesting?add a few bits in when linking your key maneuvers together!and fly some tighter close in lines!use some of the Imac/F3M knowledge you have gained!oh and get it super low!you don't have to bust out maneuvers you are not comfortable with!sometimes basic or even easier maneuvers that you are comfortable with can look awesome with the right kind of music when flown well!

Music was good!keep up the good work!!
