Hints, tips and advice on slinging

Hi guys

Ive just started learning to sling (100ft) in a AS350.

Just wanting to know any good tips or advice to help me improve.

I have a tendancy to start really moving the cyclic when Im looking directly down through the sling window, however find it more stable when I look through the foot bubble window and pick a stable spot and keep staring at it and take quick peeks through the sling window - is this a good way to do it.

I would really appreciate any tips or advice as I would realy like to steer my career in the long lining industry and would like to learn more on how to master it.

Not just interested in getting tips or advice on the pickups or setdowns, but on al aspects of slinging - rigging, stopping load swinging, etc etc

Does anyone know if there are any good learning videos, training articles etc etc or even slinging threads on PPrune (not sure how to do a search on this website).

Thanks in advance and look forward to hearing from you all

Cheers

BT
