Well the JR Regional Finals was a success. I had a lot of fun and it was a great field. Good turnout too, It was nice to fly against some different people. We flew 3 rounds of sequences and 2 rounds of freestyle on Saturday. Today the weather wasn't too great but we managed to squeeze in all the unknowns / 1 basic known round. Awards were around 1230. Ray Strickland won basic (4 pilots), I won sportsman (11 pilots), Chuck Hines (sorry if I got your last name wrong), who just got back from Afghanistan won Intermediate (I forget how many pilots, sorry). In advanced AC Glen took first (4-5 pilots), In unlimited Mike M won (4 pilots). Jase Dussia won the freestyle with an outstanding performance.
At this contest they have a trophy (Eli Cup) that goes to the person with the highest combined sequence and freestyle score. It was a close battle but AC Glen won that. Also since this was the regional finals our RD Brian Sanik decided to bring the trophy's with him and announce the winners at the contest. Ray Strickland took basic, I won Sportsman, Mike Karnes won Intermediate, Lou Matustik won advance, and Kurt Koelling won Unlimited. I look forward to seeing you all next season! |

Im glad i made the long trip to the reginals , i had a great time and it was a fantastic place to fly .
there was so much good flying going on. Sportsman was really fun to watch and we were battiling it out in intermediate as well . the freestyle was great and Jase did a amazing job. Geoffery flew like it the plane was on a wire. i cant say much about unlimited and advanced because they were on the other flight line , but i think AC and Chris W were battiling it out in Advanced . just a great weekend .

I want to say thanks to everyone that came. We sure had a great time running the event and I hope everyone that came had a great time too.
Turnout was great. We ha 4 in Basic, 10 Sportsman, 5 Intermediate, 6 Advanced, 6 Unlimited plus 3 flew Freestyle. I really enjoyed seeing a lot of old friends and making a lot of new ones. I hope someone got some pics and can post them soon. I wasnt able to get any....... sorry Saturday was great weather. Sunday was pretty rainy, but we were able to get the full unknown round in before the rain set in for the rest of the day. I left the full results print out at home so I wont put up partial results. |

Great contest guys, this might be my new favorite. I had an awesome time both day and night. The facility was amazing as was the food both days. This definately got the juices flowing for me and I think I am gonna work on bringing back the MN contest next year.
