Lilhunter,
I too was wondering if there is a movement that they can make faster than the acceleration of gravity. Falling to recoil so they can run seems to be one where gravity would control all of the falling part. However, I've seen deer spin incredibly fast and I believe it's quite possible that the turn happens at a faster rate than the "drop". Combine the two and you've got a real mess.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
