Different styles of flying

The times that I’ve “flown”, it hasn’t ever been with the thought of recreation, but more of necessity. I just see a ledge or something that I want to go to, and I levitate directly to it and then stop flying, without even thinking about it. It never occurred to me (while in a lucid dream, at least) to just fly around for fun, which would be awesome.

ive got one for taking off, but it doesent really work for flying…well i think it does, but it looks kind of wierd.
the iron man way
i you know how to use telekenisis in lucid dreams, then its pretty easy, all you do is put your hands at your side, with your hands up like iron man, and push yourself forward , and your off.
havent tried it before, might tonight.
it would probably be alot easier if you had armor like i do in LD’s.
its kind of like a cross between iron man, and master chiefs armor, its pretty cool

I grow wings out of my back and arms.

I guess I’m just a natural at flying when I read some of the posts here, haha. I don’t know why, but I instinctively “know” how to fly. In my normal dreams I don’t always have full control (though actually I’ve gotten better and better at it). In my lucid dreams when I fly, it’s total freedom. I can fly as fast or slow as I like, I can do aerobatics, all that stuff. It just happens.

It’s kind of like how Peter Pan flies. Effortless is how I’d describe it. I just know that I can when I’m dreaming. Actually, even in my normal dreams I’ll just take off sometimes and fly around (have actually gotten lucid like that once or twice).

Different styles of flying? How about different styles of taking off lol. In my latest LD, I went through the screen in my bedroom window. It was pretty tripppy. I had a bit of trouble actually flying though. I was pretty wobbly at first. I think its cause im not used to it really as much as i was back when i had LDs more often.

I fly by flamin’ jets comin’ out of my feet

I fly pretty much with ease, I love to fly into space and over beaches its beautiful and the wind feels so calming, my big problem is when I try to carry another person to fly with me in my LD. They always weigh me down and it is hard to take off with them hanging on to me, anyone else have this problem?

I was racing rally cars in my dream, they were winning so I decided to cheat and fly over the obstacles. Only problem was that I lost altitude whenever I tried to fly superman-style, so I had to stay in a seated position (I remember thinking “wow, I must look so stupid right now”).

i fly by trying to “hold down” the happy excited feeling you get when you know you’re dreaming, and then, jumping, let it out. i am then in the air, and flying in any style. usually like superman, except with both arms out in front of me. i have only swim-flew in non lucid dreams. it is ssssllllloooowwwwwww, and you dont get very high, but it is very easy, and easy to steer and control.

Here’s a technique to try: I sometimes just make the ground crash beneath me to reveal the several miles of distance between the ground and you. It’s easier not to lose your confidence and fall to the ground if you can’t see it.

lol the swim style is weird cuz you can float on back like you swimming, your laying down in mid air.

i find it hard sometimes to stay afloat tho

Hello Everyone,
My friend told me about an LD that she recently had. She was trying to fly, but couldn’t figure out how to. So, she called in one of her friends that was a master of lucid dreaming, during the dream. She told her that she had to spin first then do a superman style. It actually worked!

So…
Maybe if we all call someone into our LDs, we will all become masters of flying!

That’d be great.

My general style of flying is like the of Super Sonic in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. I start jogging, then I sprint, then I finally throw my body forwards and my arms backand my feet just rise off the ground. It works a treat and I find it fairly maneuverable.

Normally I don’t have trouble flying, but sometimes it’s just funny when it’s not happening for me in a LD. Last week, for example, I was trying to fly through a grocery store, but what actually happened resembled scooting across the concrete floor on my stomach. Does that count as a flying style? I call it “the worm.” hehe

Nice tips on how to help flying im sure they will come in handy for me. I havent flown yet, but it is something I would simply love to try. My friend although did fly last night and she said she just ran and bursted through her window, flown for a couple seconds but then lost control and fell down to the ground. she said it didnt hurt though even though she landed on her back…

HEY PEOPLE,
Don’t you suppose to do watever you want?
Doesn’t your imagination suppose to be your limit?
There souldn’t be one style that works and another that don’t, you shouldn’t have problems at all.
It’s all in your head, guys.

Hahaha, I had a LD this night (first one since February or March)
I tried the superman-style for the first time. It seems that my right hand has more power than the left one, which makes me go round and around.
And I tried my new cool “jet shoes”. They had so much power, that I became up-side-down and I became dizzy. It was scary.

you know what i’ve done before, it’s a technique i kinda made up one time, idk, someone else has probably figured it out b4

i call it the iron man technique. it’s almost like superman technique, but you build up energy in your hands as well as in your feet, and point them towards the ground like iron man does in that movie. it worked pretty well for me

yeah, i’ve had that in a ND, tho, without the energy in ur hands, just the feet

what about fire flying? like torch does in fantastic 4, u’ll start burning and…yeah, I think almost everyone knows what I am talking about anyone tried it?
