Physics of Gravitation and melee fighting

OK, so Gravitation changes the vector of gravity. So I think you can acceerate your body in every direction. However, you cannot turn it with the Surge. Hence I am afraid there is one fundamental difference in fighting while you are falling with Gravitation. You do not have a stance. Sure you can move your legs, but other than changing the shape of your body this does nothing. A stance transmits forces into the ground. But there is no ground. So every time a force would turn you, you indeed turn, until friction with the air stops you. And that is a long time.

So what is to be done? Now. this may be ridiculous, but you should probably have stabilizing fins as part of your equipment, specifically on your legs. Like the fletching of an arrow, because that is what you effectively are. And you must keep moving, because for aerodynamic control surfaces to work, you need an air flow. And you likely need to change your fighting style. Forget swinging a weapon. Action equals reaction. Go for thrusts instead.
