I suspect that this is due to the airflow over the tail feathers
continuing though the maneuver. Try a few going straight and level and
vary your speeds and see if you see what I saw....</font></div>

This is very consistent with what I've found. The<br>
keys for me seem to be speed management and less<br>
aileron in the snap than I was using last year. <br>
<br>
This maneuver is very speed sensitive. Previous snaps<br>
in the upright Avalanche or 45 deg down were much less<br>
speed sensitive. I'm flying a Focus II, YS 140L,<br>
17-10N prop and find I actually have to carry a little<br>
- very little - power above idle into the snap.<br>
<br>
Though I have yet to make it look very pretty.<br>
