Episode 72- Greg Hamerton and FlyBubble, gear choice, bivvy, and the road to Mastery

Greg is a former PWC pilot and is the man responsible for all those awesome FlyBubble videos, participated in the X-Pyr in 2016, is passionate about vol biv and has a lot of great thoughts and advice for pilots at every level. We discuss gear and choices and how to not get sucked into what others are saying vs what's right for you, how to get into vol biv and best practices, the difference and advantages and disadvantages of 2 vs 3 liners, why "flying slow" is a worthy chase, learning to develop intuition that's not "intuitive", comps and chasing the aesthetics rather than the result, quality vs numbers and distances, what makes a "champion" and mastery, how to find the winning line and so, so SO much more. THIS ONE IS AWESOME. ENJOY!
