Hey Mike, was good to meet you and all the other guys there, cant remember all the nicks but maybe in time. We had a BLAST ! I gotta get video downloaded.....I may post the raw footage and then let Bren edit it and put it together and make something out of it.

As to the Cincy end of things, Craven took good care of all of us....Wizzard can add in things too. Had a really good time there too....thought it was about time to roll and scrable when the tube fell over shooting off fireworks and they went to shooting all directions across the ground lol.

Craven is NUTS lol.....oh, and he likes sissy drinks too LOL.

Wizzard, we shoulda done what we talked about doing, couldnt you hear the blood curdling scream at the break of daylight lol.

Thanks guys for the good time......we gonna have to do this when it cools down some in the fall.

Alright.....so I drank Wizard's gay juice! Does that make me...............ah never mind! We all had a blast (literally) together. We had great weather, flying, eating, gay juice, and fireworks! And Brendan.......WOW!! That kid and his dad are one great team. XFC.....look out! He's so much better every time I see him fly. He even taught this old buzzard a few things! Wizard, Danny, and Brendan are all really good people and a blast to hang out with. We definitely need to do this more often. We even shot a short video of the infamous "Craven Jr" this morning for the "snapasaurus thread" or whoever that funny talking man is! He's only 8 and was having a blast! He's best known for running out of the crowd collecting raffle prizes after Biff draws his name at the XFC. Thanks guys and let's do it again soon! And yes, the gay juice is really gay! Thanks Wizard!!

Yea Craven, you missed it, Bren was flying Wizzards drop plane WITH the sky diver attached to it doing 4 point rolls, they dropped the diver and then Bren flew a freestyle with Wizzards plane lol

[wizard]

Brandon was giving the diver a real ride. I wonder if that had anything to do with him forgetting to pull the chute. LOL I can't wait to see that video.

Craven and pitviper51 thanks for the invites. A good time was had by all. Again like normal I was the one breaking my toys. Nothing beyond repair, although the diver will need major surgery. The pain and agony he showed laying there on the ground with his legs tangled in the canopy (separated from his body) OH the humanity. LOL

Everyone at both sites were great people, sorry I don't remember all the names. Most days I'm doing good if I can still remember mine.

Thanks for the great weekend and a chance to unwind, relax and just clear the mind. It was a much needed break from life for the weekend. Or was it just a taste of what life is supposed to be? Either way much needed and appreciated.

[wizard]

By the way Brandon, if you want to borrow that plane for your freestyle at TAS just let me know.

[Dan_nO]

Wizzard, I am downloading vid off the camera as we speak.....ive sat and laughed so hard. It was nice seeing ya again after the XFC.....after we get back from Tucson we will have to get together again for a weekend, Brendan and I both had a blast with you guys.....even if Craven was drinking gay juice LOL

Great pics Mike. I'm glad you got the one pic of the diver in the air. I can look at it and see what the problem was when the chute was not opening properly. It looks like one of the main risers didn't pull fully from the pack and created a "B riser stall" Literally pulling the chute closed in the middle of the canopy stopping the airfoil from filling and stalling the wing. After some investigation on the pack I can see what caused the hangup and know how to prevent it in the future.

Thanks.
