Subject: Re: Bungee Wings of Death
Can you be more specific on this , Kevin ?

I thought the momentum created is defined by force ( up or down) x
distance between where the force is applied and axis of rotaion, which
will be very close to the center of gravity ( to be exact, to the
meta-center in an immersed body)

So the closer the up and down forces are to the diver , the less
momentum they create ( SS backplates, single bottle wings, no oversize
wings)

What did I not get right ?
