OMG!

That was hectic!

Just wondering, what kind of G-forces those insane sharp turns could cause?

We have a course nearby at Round Mountain, a mate of mine that does a lot of headwork for them got the opportunity to navigate. The next day he was black and blue anywhere the harness had touched him. I would assume a "chitload" would be a conservative guess as to the amount of G's.
