[!\[\](https://templepilots.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/SIV_1.1.2.jpg)](https://templepilots.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/SIV_1.1.2.jpg)   Day 2 & 3 – High Octane, High Adrenaline, Full Action & Drama. We did over 30 Full Stalls on day two, all with good exits & recovery save one splash in the lake. [Shantanu](https://www.facebook.com/shantanu.purandare.71?fref=gs&dti=228025497251140&hc_location=group) just didn’t want to go into the water & he happened to be the first one. He didn’t deploy the Reserve either but got away with a small injury on his left knee. We had some ‘A’ Wings, mostly ‘B’s’, two ‘C’s’ & a ‘D’ n lots of pods. Full Stalls n Tail Slide Recoveries, Asymmetrical Collapses with Speed Bar, Exit from auto rotations, Spirals & progressive exits, Stall & Spin appreciations, 90 degree Spins & Recoveries, Full Flat Spins & Stall Recoveries, Spin & Back Fly Recoveries, lots n lots of Wing Overs practice & some first time SAT’s.

Recovered well but then he too didn’t want to get wet. Did a nice flare & we all enjoyed the drama as he came out all drenched & smiling. Awesome looking SAT’s by [Vainik](https://www.facebook.com/vainik.shetty?fref=gs&dti=228025497251140&hc_location=group), [Chris](https://www.facebook.com/chris.wood.31521?fref=gs&dti=228025497251140&hc_location=group), Jaydev & the Omri from Israel.

Tomorrow is the grand finale where almost everyone will join the Big Splash Club with Reserve Deployments. Looking forward to more fun n glory tomorrow !

I wonder why we do all these crazy things & play with our lives. No one wants to grow up I guess ! Love from the skies ![](https://templepilots.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2764.png)❤️
