RE: [ATM] Wind resistance & golf balls

["David Grennan" <dave@webtreatz.com>]

My understanding was the indentations on a golf ball create little low
pressure zones at site of the dimples resulting in less air for the golf
ball to travel through and thus reducing drag.

Surely creating all those dimples would just make it a little easier for the
tube to move through the air.
I do not beleive this will have any effect in making the tube less
susseptible to wind.

Hmmm isnt it April 1st tomorrow??  :)

Clear skies,

David.
