I sure wish I was in your area...

I like the innovation of the inbound, many pilots can now do the outbound 0 of 8, with much practice, but the inbound, my stomach hurts just thinking about trying it.

Maybe next year...

EXTRA EXTRA READ ALL ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This just in!!

Biff rocks a cross box 0 of 8 FROM INVERT !!!!! From a down humpty, our man Biff REALLY pushed the envelope!!! "Dude as I came down from a 0 turn negative spin, my equipment was just working so well I knew the timing was right! As I pushed negative cross box, I knew it was now or never. I was obviously crunched for space as I was going out, but I just trusted my rudder, trusted my inputs and trusted my instincts. My caller thought I was nuts but I just had to go for it. I'd tried to keep it top secret until the Masters and Tucson as I know I'll need something BIG there for the scores, but what the heck. I didn't want anyone else nailing it first. Big ups to all my sponsors!!!! I still have a trick or two up my sleeve. Next is a 0 roll out, 0 roll in 0 roll out 0 roll in ROLLER!!!!! I think I'll call that one the Biff. I ROCK!!!!!

Biff, congrats on the accomplishment. It is a feeling that can not be explained. As a teaser, following is a sample (only part mind you) of the new move being unveiled this fall.

Start straight and level upright. Left to right. 1/2 roll to inverted. Start the 0 of 16, when your half way thru, do 0 snaps of a 2 roll snapper, exit inverted. Begin 270 deg rolling circle, 0 rolls of course, ending with the perfect approach to an inverted 0 of 8 corss box. Rudder and the exit at the end are the real test to a man's flying ability.

MY GOD!!!!! I thought I was ahead of the game here. All the planning and preperation I have for the big meets aren't quite as original as I thought. Do you think it presumptuous to name the roller I'm presently doing after me?

Let's give props where they are deserved, Innovator is the God Father of the 0 of 8. It's all spin off's of your cutting edge thought that made this new way of flying possible. Even if I get credit for the down humpty cross box 0 of 8 from invert and the 0 roll out 0 roll in 0 roll out 0 roll in roller, let it be known Innovator is the true inventor of the manuever!!

I take my 10 gallon hat off to you sir!
