It gives me great pleasure to know that everyone had a great time, the effort as worth it, save your vacation time for next year's event guys

There was one snake out and loose in the pictures, but that chick had MANY snakes bobbing to her rhythm during her dance.

One of my close friends went with me this time and it was his first big event. On the way home Friday he was beside himself with the way everyone got along and was able to fly and have a good time. I spent the time to introduce him to the "Gods of the Flying Giants" (Max, Joe, Greg, Steve, John, and my HERO ELIE which he already knew). I told him if he thought Friday was good wait for Saturday to get into full swing, especially once the group could get together and enjoy a few wobbly pops. I have spoke with him several times today and he continues to tell me how great it is that I have such a large group of individuals to be involved with. I had to explain to him Flying Giants isn't just a group of individuals but a family of friends. So for those of you that always seem to come up with an excuse why you are unable to attend a Flying Giants event, next time you need to come up with an excuse for the wife and work.

All the individuals (especially Elie) involved in making this weekend possible need to stand up and take a bow. This was definitely one for the Flying Giants record books.

i couldnt have said this any better. it was soo cool meeting people you talk to on line and never met. honestly its like an old friend. here it is monday and i still cant shake the event from my head. ( some of it was too many coronas) but the rest was the excitement leading up to and the event itself. the party afterwards hanging out with new friends, listening to elis storys just made this the best thing i have done in a long long time.

This was my first Huckfest and definitely will not be my last. I wish I could get some time off to go to the one in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><st1:State w:st="on">Ohio</st1:State> and <st1lace w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Atlanta</st1:City></st1lace>.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
For sure, Elie knows how to throw a party (on and off the field) and it was great seeing Max, SleepyC and meeting everyone else.<o></o>
On Friday MudSurfer dared to perform the dreaded zero of eight. Not only Upright but inverted too. He then continued to thrill everyone with a great 3D show in the noontime demo.<o></o>
Then the Freestyles by John Glezelis and Cody Wojcik on Saturday were great. To bad Elie didn’t order more sunshine for the afternoon though.<o></o>
The party at Elie’s will go down in the annals of history. I couldn’t believe Dino flying that glow ‘copter in the yard. Sick sick sick! Then the other guy (sorry I didn’t get your name) who was cutting the grass inverted and then in an instant flipped over on its rails, engine off! Even Justin got some night flying in! What an amazing young pilot and pyro! Justin's quotes of the even: just one more and give me something to burn!.<o></o>
<o> </o>
Definitely will not miss this one next year!<o></o>
Happy Hucking!
