Default Re: QQ & Kyle Free S

QQ is a legend and the Godfather of 3D, he is a crafty veteran and he knows what it takes to put together a winning Freestyle routine. Kyle is a legend in the making and he is still learning. It is always fun to watch a young talented upstart give a veteran a run for his money.

I miss seeing CPLR fly, he always flew with a flair that was both unique and spectacular.

QQ won by 5 points.

I was talking with QQ after the final freestyle and he has high praise for Kyle. Kyle is smooth and graceful, much like QQ. He also flew well to his music.

I think they both did a great job. Kyle is so talented it is amazing. I give a slight edge to QQ but to me it was a coin toss. In my view those two guys were standouts amoung a great field of pilots. Jason was great for the short time he flew.

Well said. I know everyone loves to do this, but the ONLY ones whose opinions matter are the judges. Given they flew thee round with 10 judges for each round it is REALLY hard to say that the winner did not deserve his win.
