beergood 0 #1 October 15, 2006 Anyone else notice that FF this summer was dead at Z Hills and the swoop pond is empty. Two FF schools and nothing going on. Looks like its a RW and Wingsuit DZ now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dharma1976 0 #2 October 15, 2006 I think that the Kluegs will be returning to the Hills in the beginning of Novemeber Fear not Zhills will return to Freeflying Davehttp://www.skyjunky.com CSpenceFLY - I can't believe the number of people willing to bet their life on someone else doing the right thing.

lauras 0 #3 October 16, 2006 The pond is being fixed. Ian, Aaron & a bunch of the guys were working on it this weekend to get it ready for the season. Drunk assholes shouldn't be let loose near wells, unless they're being forcibly held in them. Regular organizing starts up again first week of November. Yeah, it was pretty quiet if you're freeflying, but that should pick up when the season starts. Summer is usually locals only... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beergood 0 #4 October 16, 2006 Thats good to hear on the pond. Any word on them expanding it? Quiet is being nice as far as freeflying. There was plenty of RW and WS organizing all summer and plenty of FF locals as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope the pond is ready by then for a rematch. (Had a nice chow on it last year) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauras 0 #6 October 16, 2006 Maybe it's a sign that you need to take up rw?! Come & find me, Alicia & Christine for some 4-way ... I swear we'll be gentle! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't the drunk asshole do this because people stole and sold his Koi fish he put in there when he build the pond as an investment? Worth thousands? Just a rumor I heard......truth to it? Yes/no? ------------------------------ Controlled and Deliberate..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lauras 0 #8 October 18, 2006 Call TK, the dz manager. I'm sure he'd be happy to discuss this with you & you can report back to the waiting masses (813)783-9399 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 622 #9 October 18, 2006 TK has stated the swoop pond WILL be fixed, WILL be expanded - not moved though.... Let's let goof why/who/how much/when, k? Pissing contests are foolish...and repeatedly discussing them is a waste of time. We're getting our swoop pond BACK!!!! And by the way...us locals do not see the off season as "dead freefly time" - we see it as "free coach jump freefly season" anyway...get ready to swoop again at Florda's BEST DZ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Vectracide 0 #10 October 19, 2006 No thanks, I'll pass. I'm really not that concerned, just wondering. It's good that you guys are able to remedy the situation. If I even had a pond at my DZ and someone filled the well with concrete, sure as hell I would be out there the next day fixing the problem. Swoop ponds rule. And look at it this way...you can clean the pond while its empty and it will be all sparkly new again! ------------------------------ Controlled and Deliberate.....

It got emptied the weekend before I got my Velo so will glad to see it full again.

THE KLUEGS ARE COMING THE KLUEGS ARE COMING. They supposedly just left and are heading this way. Their plan is to car jack a water truck while hitch hiking. They'll drive this water truck down the coast until they pass a fishery and they'll pull up to the dock and load that sucker. They are killing 2 birds with one stone. The plan is to get to TK land and unload the trout and the water into the pond. They are going to fix all the problems in one large swoop. They're bringing back the pond, the fish, and the freeflying. I LOVE THEM. There will be an event to celebrate all of this coming back. The First Free Fuckin' Flying Fish Fry February Fourth. Bring your rig and a fish net to catch your own dinner. Cee ya there....
