Can't go wrong with Z-Hills... planes are always flying, you've got Chuck Blue for wingsuits & instruction and there's EC Freefly with John for excellent coaching and his wife Michelle for some fun load organizing - all around good people and none of the elitist/snobby attitude that unfortunately seems to be spreading in the freefly community.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but would the outcome have been different if the same exact approach would have been upwind? (re: canopy levelling off quicker/recovery arc because of facing the wind...) Thanks, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

And all the experienced freeflyers and freefly organisers are booked until the 10th as well? Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Yeah, I'm getting that impression... I called Deland manifest and it was like pulling teeth trying to get info on anything related to freefly activities, load organising, etc... a person finally got on the phone and told me to contact Freedom of Flight, otherwise she couldn't help me. I doubt there was a smile at the other end of that line. I'll blast FFlight.tv an email and see what's what... but I hear what you're saying - if I'm looking at a week of freeflying with any kind of groups, I'm afraid I may need to go elsewhere. Too bad, a friend of mine lives there now and I had a cool place to stay. Cheers, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Sounds good... and yes, please give Danielle my email addy: [email protected]. Knowing that there will be experienced freefyers and organized jumps will surely help with my decision! Thanks Andrea, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Looking at visiting in early Jan and was just wondering what the freefly scene is like there... are there load organisers? Appreciate any info. Thanks, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Thanks for the scoop! Now the question is - can I make 'till then without jumping... Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

When is the next one Sara? Thx, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Anything special going on for the freeflyers during the Canadian Invasion? Thx, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Big ways, multi-points, etc... who's doing it and where during these dates? Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

yes it's true, velcro is not recommended for freeflying, in fact it's not even apparent on any rigs being sold today for whatever discipline you choose in the sky - get the idea? If you're in the buying process, why get stuck with something that is not as safe? Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Ditto on visiting the Ranch this summer - been too long! Also met some new "Ranch" buddies in Eloy this winter that I'll want to see again (nice folks from NY, yeah I know, weird! ) I miss the July 4 boogies there... and fight night! Although, I still get nightmares of Sonic wearing nothing but a Sumo outfit! Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

So how was the turkey yesterday? Can anyone do it as well as Bud? Hope y'all had a good time and are jumping your asses off today... wish I could be there. The good news is my back is getting better and I could actually shovel snow last night - Hoo F'n Rayyy!! Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Hello again CSS gang! Just wondering if I can get some opinions on the hotels mentioned on the CSS website (will be attending your TG boogie again). I was satisfied with the Hampton in WF last year, but am curious about the Econo Inn in Louisburg for $40/night. Are we talking bugs & rats here? ;-) Anyway, any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Al p.s. will Joe's band play again this year? Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Hey you guys! Long time no see... almost a year since last TG boogie. Anyway, Frenchy, Marion, Joe, et al... just a heads up that I've booked a trip for "work" this Nov at our VA office... and it just sooo happens to be the same week as Thanksgiving again! If all goes well, shall see y'all then, Cheers, Al p.s. Joe, gotta keep the band together at least another month! Time's flying, and so am I...

Thanks for the info Ivan! Muchas gracias hermano. To all the regular PR visitors/boogie go-ers: - which airport do you fly into? - where do you stay/which hotel? - rent a vehicle? Any/all info/advice appreciated. Cheers, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

Been thinking about it, would love to go, lots of freefly talent.... Just not sure. What are the accomodation options like? Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)

lol! *sigh* my work is finally done here... now I can relax, pack my stuff and prepare for the road tomorrow a.m. As my son would say: "One more do-do to CSS!"

Hey Marion, I sent an email to info@css... asking to reserve a turkey ticket - any idea if that will be enough for out-of-towners like me? By the way, can I change my sig to this: "I don't have to be drunk to watch Dawn and Marion make out" Cheers, Al Time's flying, and so am I... (69-way, 108-way and 138/142-way Freefly World Records)
