That should be fun and interesting, I was informed that the speed star competition in Lodi a number of years back was finished up due the the freeflyers destroying the belly flyers times???

I am really looking forward to this. Getting the points will be fun.... but its the antics after the point is completed that is going to be the real blast!!

if you mean like nearly 10 years ago at a 10 Way comp?

I was there visiting and got on a pick up team - great fun - no rules - and could launch a chunk

the FF crowd was very experienced and it was fun to see their exits - since they were vertical, they could chunk out all 10 people as a piece - I think they literally launched an 8 way round with a couple others holding onto it and closing the 10 way - when it worked, it was fast - closing the two stingers like that subterminal was pretty impressive in the HD orientation

the belly teams could really only chunk out about 6 together - I forget why - we only had one good exit and won that single round

I dont recall any of hte belly teams having a lot of experience though, but there were good rounds for most

it was good clean fun

Chunking is for wussies. Just thought I'd point that out. OK, carry on.
