BobFolline 0 #76 May 7, 2008 Thank you all for a great weekend. The distance competition was fun and I really did not expect to get most of the way to the tracks. But the folks ahead of me were just awesome! And they did not have the advantage of leaving late and watching down the line at what was and was not working. ------ I loved being part of the 2 completed Slot Perfect 16 ways and the 2 double 9 ways. You guys can really fly those suits. --- Thank you all for being there and for the great pointers that helped it all come together. Thank you again Ed for hosting the event and all the organizing. This was the best event so far. Thank you Kris for taking such good care of us and keeping us full of good food. And a special thank you to Avery for the great videos and taking care of us on Saturday Dinner. You are tops Avery. BobWorking to be the last flyer on a birdman suit. ;-) ... Who also flies a tony suit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VectorBoy 0 #78 May 7, 2008 The XS is an awesome suit, and people will see that when they have a chance to fly with Jeff or fly one for themself. I just want to keep the brand wars out of this thread. Mmmmkay? Well lets not forget that Jeff is very skilled pilot and an awesome factory ambassador. I'm sure if Jeffro and I swapped suits it would be equally humbling for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
