That's awesome bro! You were never the precision flyer as much as you were a good 3D pilot, sounds like that changed. How do you like the half roll on the bottom of the loop?? I can't get that to look like it should.

Good luck this year man.

HEy Chucky baby......who are the judges for the freestyle contest.?


Yeah Ben its hard, what really sux for me is I have to put together a 3min. routine for the Dallas contest the weekend b4, and then the very next weekend fly a 4min. routine.....
Are point deducted for not using the whole 4min.??

Yeah that's a tricky one. It helps if you make the loop really big.

That's an easy solution...Just add one more minute to your Dallas routine. Chop up one minute of another song and you're good to go.

I believe that the score is reduced by the percentage not flown. This is not for sure, maybe someone who knows can help me out here.

I recommend "freestyling: the last minute hehehe

Judges in the Freestyle have not been decided upon, I have been trying to figure out who to include here...

If any sponsors are present or any reps from the sponsors I might approach them.

People that have come to mind include Mr Bob Sawyer if he is not flying, but being a guest judge for the freestyle. Dewayne from Knox Hobbies or Gary the sales manager are definitely considerations.

If I have any volunteers I would consider them as well.

You still have 12 months before you have to squeeze into it.
