What is "tracking"?

Tracking in wingsuit flying is a technique where the flyer positions their body in a way that allows them to move horizontally through the air, rather than just falling straight down. By adjusting their arms, legs, and torso, the wingsuit flyer can control their direction and speed. The goal is to cover more distance while staying in control and maintaining stability before deploying the parachute. Proper tracking helps the flyer glide through the air and reach a specific landing zone.
