Default Define reversals..

Can someone explain exactly what a reversal is? I did a search but not a lot came up. I've heard it mentioned here and there and have a basic idea of what it is. But am wondering if there are any pro's out there that can really define it for me? Thanks!

im no expert on 3d but i think its when your doing some type of piro manuever like piro circuits, and you reverse the piro direction whilst continuing the circuit in the same direction. thats what ive always thought it was anyway.

+2 reversal is referring to reversing the piro direction during a pirouetting maneuver. Piro Flip reversals look awesome. Maybe one day in the far distant future..

Hmm...ok I kinda figured so. I'll have to watch some more videos to see when is best to make the transition into the opposite direction. Thanks guys.

If you can piro well in both directions it should not be hard to figure. You can transition any time but it will be always easier with the disk flat.
I do it fine randomly on the sim, it looks so cool
