Ranch Pond Swoop 2008, Sept 27-28 Can't Post

Is this coming weekend!

Looks like it's going to be the usual format - 2 jumps each of carving lane, straight lane, expression and 1 jump of raft accuracy. May be targets too? i dont know. Billy told me it's going to be "just what the ad says", but i didnt ask what ad and where... anyone seen any ads? :)

Who is planning to be here? Going to make Friday my practice day...

This sucks, I would love to be there but I can't make it. I have to take a break from all the traveling. Have a great time and be safe all!

When did you become such a little girl, GW? Is it my chest strap that scares you? I can understand that. But don't be afraid of it, it's just a piece of fabric, man. Besides, i am just compensating for my larger than average testicles.

It sucks to be so reasonably-close to Gardiner right now, but unable to attend. I fly back home from Canada (a work trip) on the 4th and won't be able to make it even with the push-back date. I haven't made the trip to the PSN since 2005, but man, I LOVE that meet!

The only way to avoid that is to come to the FLCPA meets and practice Laugh I was Joe's bitch for the day... missed being the "token" but at least it let someone else have the pleasure of being last....

I think it might have had something to do with the lack of jumping this year (stupid sinuses/new job)

next year is going to be a bit different for me
