Sportsman may have a loop with a roll in it
Intermediate maybe a loop with 2 point roll integrated
Advanced may have an outside loop with a half roll, snap combo in it
Unlimited's loop has even more snaps or roll elements

You start to see negative snaps and maneuvers in Intermediate, and then the proceeding classes.

Enough thread robbing.... WAY TO GO GUYS! Man advanced is close!!!
Thanks Tank, that got me up to speed... Keep on with results Max... Thanks.... Great pics by the way too... Keith

It's the Jandals.

Dont laugh. You see its all basic anatomy. Bogan's jandals leave his toe hairs exposed to the atmosphere, you understand Bogan's toe hairs are no everyday toe hairs, they are sensitive to the slightest environmental change, They can tell him the wind direction and velocity, the temperature and humidity. They can divine water that is miles underground.

Legend has it that he once field repaired the pull-pull on his rudder using only toe hair and needle nose pliers. I heard from a reliable source that they are linked to the time-space continuium with quantum threads, and he can actually feel and react to changes in the aircraft's flight path before they happen. Unfortunatley timespace fails him from time to time.......

It's the Jandals!

Marcus you IDIOT!
How could you tell the world this?!? Now every country will go away and breed themselves and super-freak with hyper-sensitive toe hairs and beat NZ in the world champs!!! How could you!!!

Well, now the truth is out I better set a few things straight. Bogan is fact descended from a unique predator of the deep that has hunted our oceans since the time of the dinosaurs. Sharks. Yes, it is a closely kept NZ secret that Bogan's great-great-great-aunty-once-removed-and-then-once-again was a shark. You can still see signs of his heritage in his unique toe hairs. As Marcus alluded to, Bogan's to hairs are hyper-sensitive. They are evolved from the hairs in a modern Shark's nasal passages which give them a heightened spatial awareness that enables them to flush out their prey and nail it. Yet, Bogan's other ancestors haven't forgotten to pass anything onto him. Oh no, you see Bogan's toe hairs are evolved to the point where they can pick up radio signals on 72 MHz, thus allowing him to literally absorb the skills and knowledge of his competitiors by reading their signals during the manouvres they are peforming. It also allows him to quickly detect any frequency cross-overs and intrusions; thus saving his models; well, most of the time anyway......
Another fact not known by many is that precisely two sixth's of his toe hairs point magnetic north at all times. This gives him another advantage when flying; it means he can fly straighter 4-point rolls than anyone else because his hyper-sensitive toe hairs in the pull-pull cables of his plane gives him a real-time feedback on precisely which bearing his plane is flying on.
Just like Samson in the Bible, should Bogan shave his toe hairs off, his skills and talents (namely flying model aeroplanes) will immediately leave him!!!
Hope this clears up a few things,
Paul
