wery nice tumble style- i remember watching Tucker do them at 150 feet fllying level end over end recovering level over and over down the flight line-ws the first time i saw level flight tumbles during practice with his super pitts-our jaws dropped wow AIrsahows were never the same again

The simple answer: Yaw Left and Push. However, there is a lot of finesse to get it right.
The pitch stability of the airplane would normaly prevent it from tumbling like this. The secret is to get the airplane flying "sideways" so the oncoming air does not inhibit the forward tumble.
You start by yawing left to produce about 30 degrees of sideslip. Then you push forward which produces a gyroscopic reaction that yaws the airplane even more. Once yawed, the airplane can tumble freely.
