Default 2010 Flyinggiants.com Huckfest Tour Announced!

This year Flyinggiants.com is pleased to partner with 3DHobbyShop.com to present the 2010 US Huckfest tour.

Ben from 3DHobbyShop said, "What you guys do with the Huckfest tour is amazing, but I think together we can make it better."

I responded, "BRING IT DUDE!"

I think you guys are in for a real treat this year!

After many phone calls, emails, and hard copy planning we were able to finally lock down five amazing show dates for the 2010 tour. This year we made a huge effort to push the Huckfest locations out to areas that may not have been represented in the past. This way many of you that have always wanted to attend a show will now have the opportunity! I can say without hesitation that each of these shows will maintain the quality that you have come to expect at an official Flyinggiants.com Huckfest.

So without further ado, allow me to present the 2010 FLYINGGIANTS.COM / 3DHOBBYSHOP.COM HUCKFEST TOUR!

JUNE 24th - 27th - THE FIRST EVER MEGA-HUCKFEST! - Hot Springs, Arkansas!
If you take a dart and throw it at the center of a map of the USA you will hit Hot Springs Arkansas. This will be the location for the first ever MEGA-HUCKFEST! Josh Price and the Oklahoma/Arkansas boys are the driving force behind this event so you know it's going to be good! I can also tell you that the first ever MEGA-HUCKFEST will have many more surprises in store! You do not want to miss it! Full disclosure of all the details coming shortly!

JULY 29th - AUGUST 1st - SNAP A HUCKFEST - GARDNIER, MASSACHUSETTS
Really nothing needs to be said about this show. Elie "Snap A Saurus" Houayes hosts the North Easts LARGEST 3D fly-in in a manner only Snap can. If you know, you know. If you don't know, you better ask somebody! Each year Snap has something new and exciting up his sleeve. Simply put, you do not want to miss out on this one! Snap's shows are always an instant classic!

SEPTEMBER 9th - 12th - HEART Of OHIO HUCKFEST - NAPOLEON, OHIO
The original Huckfest took place in Ohio in 2006. This will be the 5th year of the Ohio show, and the 4th year at the wonderful Thistledown Flyers field. Corky and Jeff Heitman, as well as FG's own SleepyC, host this show so you can expect wonderful hospitality and insane antics. Yep another event you simply can not miss! Also new this year Ben from 3DHobbySHop.com, Chris from Extreme Flight and Flyinggiants.com will introduce a brand new 3D contest that will change everything. Stay tuned, this is going to get REAL interesting!

SEPTEMBER 30th - OCTOBER 3rd - SUNSHINE STATE HUCKFEST - TAMPA, FLORIDA
Oh yes, this year the Huckfest series dips down to Florida for a little sunshine state hucking! Donnie Bryans and the boys will host this first time event. And I can tell you with their experience in throwing big quality events, and good ole' boy down-home hospitality, this event will not disappoint in any way.



And finally after many, many requests from FG members for the first time in a long time the Flyinggiants.com Huckfest series will travel across the country and rock it out on the West Coast.

NOVEMBER 12th - 14th - WEST COAST HUCKFEST - SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA
After a few years of trying to make a West Coast Huckfest happen Planebender and his buds called me and said,"SLEEPY WE CAN DO IT." I said, " AMEN brothers! Lets make this happen!" So the Flyinggiants.com Huckfest tour returns to the West Coast! After all the requests from FG members for a West Coast show I challenge ALL the West Coast FG'ers to REPRESENT!!! Lets make the Huckfest return HUGE!
An official note: If you fly a big airplane, you are INVITED!

Ok there you have it, the 2010 HUCKFEST schedule. Call in your vacation time and get your travel plans set. As the dates draw near we will post hotel and other information in each of the individual Huckfest threads located in the 2010 Huckfest forum. CLICK HERE! Ben from 3DHobbyShop.com and I will have many cool announcements regarding specific product releases, as well as information about the new FG/3DHS/EF 3D contest we will be introducing!

As always, travel safe, and bring the good times.
2010 FLYINGGIANTS.COM HUCKFEST'S ARE... GO!
