Had a meet up with a few guys this weekend; joeblinky, invertedforce and myself. The winds were really good this weekend in central Illinois which made for some great sessions.

we took over 3000 photos using a sequence camera, and hours of video on a HD gopro. Invertedforce is editing the video which we hope to be up by next week. Here is a photo of what to expect....plus lots of crashes

Good Winds!

nice!

help makes its so much easier! and motivating as well.

with 3 guys you got good odds of actually doing it AND remember to bring the camera!

fresh stuff coming sounds good.

Great shots Adam! You get some serious air!

flyjump - 30-11-2010 at 02:23 PM

Thanks :) Big air is my favorite style of riding. I'll take a big jump with or without tricks, as long as I'm soaring overhead I am happy. I need to get a harness that fits properly and doesn't ride up on me. I was having trouble with board off/ foot outs because I couldt stretch out far enough to put my feet back in the bindings.

did you actually make the board on? and get it on vid? awesome trick!!

flyjump - 30-11-2010 at 02:43 PM

I was very close to getting the board on. One footed the binding. I kept swinging to far to the side. When my charger gets here I think it'll be easier with the faster turning, it'll help me dial in the timing better. The scorpion was swinging me to far out. I will get it soon though! I've got a couple other ideas for new tricks though :)
