I have to agree with the guys that want to see a true FREESTYLE<,, my point is that it is getting sort of boring if people really do the criteria as Jason Noll explained,,, for example I watched some of the people do there freestyle's and in my opinion it wasn't really a freestyle it was a personal precision flight of there choice,, in english if pilots fly a criteria freestyle it is truely boring,,, what happened to the days of good ole PLAIN FREESTYLE,, just a wow factor was the judgeing criteria,, don't get me wrong I like QUEQUE and most of the other pilots but im my opinion they are starting to get boring in the freestyle department,, and before anyone says anything, yes I realize that QUEQUE's freestyle was hard as crap and he showed unbelievable technical flying but it was for a spectator semi boring, except for the low passes,,, the spectators want to see on the edge LOW flying,, ,risking of aircraft, true balls of steel, , like leseburgs crash, now that was it that is what freestyle was all about, he crashed but he was attempting something that had never been seen before,, it was in retrospect an advancement of the 3d world, would have raised the bar,,,,,,,, (taking a breath) just like CHIP Hyde's walk around torque roll in the TOC 2002 that is what TRUE freestyle is all about,,,, the spectators want to see down low, heart stopping flying,, and remember the spectators is who buys the products, and in theory pays the professional pilots salaries,, so unless the freestyle changes it will get to the point were the CRITERIA,,, is going to cause people to not want to watch it,,,, anyway sorry for preaching but I think some people think like I do,,

jongurley - You said what I was trying to say a bit more elegantly!!
I think that as ones abilities improve you can be down low and show good control once a pilot has trimmed and balanced his plane - and SKILLS. It can be done but only by a few. Thanks, Ronster |

Just as in full scale aerobatics -
Sean Tucker - Jim LeRoy, Patty Wagstaff - they all had to get low level certified before they could be allowed to perform. Doing low level precision is what its all about... OK Im off my box now.. Ronster |

I am also amazed watching Jason Noll fly his Freestyles. They have elements that nobody else covers as well. Great job this week. I enjoyed watching you fly. Your skills are truly amazing.

Sometimes I think that in any professional level sport, bussiness, hobby etc. things always seem to get political and sponser ($$$$$) corrupt. It doesn't matter if its X-Games, Ice Skating, or Flying RC, the no-name privateer will never beat a sponsered name even if they out performed them hands down. That is just the way it is. Judges can talk about it and spectators can talk about it but the under dog (the guy with no money, no name , and no sponser) will never be put on top of the pro.
