The Avalanche

Another variation on the loop involving a roll is the avalanche. This maneuver consists of a normal loop with a roll on the top. It can also be performed a a double avalanche with two rolls on the top of the loop.

• Enter a loop maneuver as you would normally. (1)
• As you come over the top, in inverted flight, perform a quick aileron roll. (2)
• Complete the loop as you would normally. (3)
