crazydiver 0 #2 March 23, 2005 I know what CPC stands for, but if you would like to draw other people to these "CPC's" you should explain what they are. Also, are there any minimum qualifications for participating as well as swooping the pond? Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #3 March 23, 2005 There is MUCH more information to come. I will post all rules, requirements for the pond ect soon. This is just the schedule to let the competitors know what the dates are. For those that have any questions about the CPC (canopy piloting circut) please go canopypiloting.com Travis, your bio says your homeless as far as a dz goes. Hope you come play soon...

CanuckInUSA 0 #4 March 23, 2005 Thanks for the update Jason. I'm a little bummed that the 2nd event is scheduled on the same day that my high school reunion is being held on up in Montreal (and I will be at the reunion). So I've lost my one throw away result event. But that's my problem not yours. Thanks for the info. Now I can plan my spring and summer jumping schedule. PS: You don't mind if I do a rain dance on the weekend of May 21st-22nd now do you? Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #5 March 23, 2005 Come on steve, what's more important, seeing old girlfriends or earning points? Ya, i would probably go see the girlfriends too..... J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #6 March 23, 2005 I think it's probably the points in steve's case. I mean look at the dude, if you where a chick would you go after that?Just kidding steve hugs and kisses hahahahaaaaa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #7 March 23, 2005 The only other thing I have to say is "BRING IT" I'm looking forward to flying with you all on the water. Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #8 March 23, 2005 Grant, The four of us need to get together this weekend and work out the final details. We have a lot to do before april 23. BTW, want to place bets on the first guy to go dirt water dirt on a 369 foot pond? i few names come to mind, but it will be awsome to see. J J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #9 March 23, 2005 I would place a bet, and it probably wont be on me, but I would place money on you though. I'll be up on Sat. What's the WX supposed to be? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #10 March 23, 2005 The only way i would put money on me is if i felt like loosing all of my money! Weather looks good, Sunday for sure. By Friday everything will change, so keep an eye on the weather chanel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #11 March 23, 2005 It sure is long... The pond that is haha. If the WX is bad on Sat then I'll come up on Sun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #12 March 23, 2005 The WX isn't looking good for CO this weekend (Sunday might be jumpable, but it's too early to know). So I'm thinking of heading to Twin instead. It won't help me for my swoop training (needed to beat you guys ), but at least I will be jumping. Not sure what sort of jumping (if any) will be had in CO this weekend. Oh and I won't be the first to go Dirt-Water-Dirt. But I do expect one day to go Dirt-Water-Chow.

swoopster33 0 #13 March 23, 2005 maybe i can talk scott roberts into coming home for a weekend. i would put some $$ down on him doing it. If you dont like the weather, just wait a minute, it will change. Think positive, it will be beautiful this weekned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spizzzarko 0 #14 March 23, 2005 He has gotten good. The last time I saw him was at NSL swoop comp a year and a half ago. I had a budy of mine from Canon tell me that they saw him at Z-hills the other weekend. I was at the swoop comp where he got that picture taken of him on the pond at Perris, that graced the back cover of skydiving mag for the longest time for GO FAST. That's when i met him. I was talking Ryan T into competeing for the CPC this year. I think he could be fairly competetive, if he stays consistant. I'm having positive thoughts allready, about the WX. All of this talking about the cpc makes me want to go out and jump. Doing about 10-15 hop and pops wouldn't hurt me, as I don't feel ultra current this season yet.

CanuckInUSA 0 #15 March 23, 2005 QuoteHe has gotten good. Now now ... don't be talking about me like that. Oops, you were talking about Scott Roberts weren't you. Isn't he a pro qualified PSTer? You've got to be good to be pro qualified. QuoteI was talking Ryan T into competeing for the CPC this year. I think he could be fairly competetive, if he stays consistant. Cool ... the more the merrier. And consitency will be the key for all of us. I can easily name 5 people who are more experienced than I am. But I still plan on beating y'all. Now how's that for trash talking over-confidence. Seriously, it's all in good fun. I will try and do the best that I can and see where that lands me. If I'm not top 5 by the end of the summer, well as I said I can easily name 5 people who are more experienced than I am.

crazydiver 0 #16 March 23, 2005 Jason, I actually have been out to MH the last few weekends. I was jumping at DS, but that ended abruptly...hopefully ralphy can get things going again. Anyway...i'm gonna try to make it out this weekend again. If you're there I'll come introduce myself. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for good weather at least one day this weekend. Need to get jumping on a more consistant basis again now that the weather is getting better. Cheers, Travis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #17 March 23, 2005 Cool, I have been doing Aff for the last few weekends, so i have stuck in the student hanger. I look forward to meeting you and i can give you the low down on all the swoop stuff going on this summer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swoopster33 0 #18 March 23, 2005 Scotter is doing very well. Check the final results from the night swoops last weekend. He is placing pretty close to the top a lot these days. I'm proud of that kid, he is kicking ass. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's pretty cool--you can carry on conversations without everyone on the board reading them! You can even talk shit about me without me knowing! J: You should mention the pond swooping req's as well!

CanuckInUSA 0 #23 March 24, 2005 I was reading the CPC rules last night on the http://www.canopypiloting.com/cpcrules.htm website and I have a question or two for you. Will we be doing two rounds of Distance, two rounds of Speed and two rounds of Zone Accuracy for each competition? Plus will the speed round be a carving course? I hope it is as described on the CPC site. Looks like I need to practice more than just your typical hook-turn hit the gates and see how far you can go (your classic distance round). It also looks like I need to practice carving (which I've done before) as well as see if I can dial in some zone accuracy. This will be a great summer to gain some competition experience and to learn to do more than swooping for distance. And I guess this is the whole idea behind the CPC. I'm looking to a fun season of swoop comps regardless of where I finish in the standings (but I'm still planning on beating y'all even if you have more experience than me ... bring it on).

I'd love to come back for a weekend sometime soon, and who knows maybe.... but if I do I'd have to bring my team-mate Kaz Sheekey w/ me then we'd all lose!! RTFO - Enjoy your new pond guys!!
