ramon 0 #26 March 15, 2002 I think Goat wants to break the record he was on in Chicago (I think it was 14 docked..flower with stingers). We could easily do a 6 way or bigger head down docked (excluding second raters like me) that would be a DZ.com record that would not be broken for a long time.If Goat and everyone decides to have a mini big way camp that weekend I'm sure they could break the state record whatever that is (7 way round or something).It is all dependent on the mood, and effort put in by the really good freefliers at the boogie.ramon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trent 0 #27 March 15, 2002 Well, we'll have Max at our disposal... so there isn't any reason we can't organize AT LEAST some docked DZ.com FF records. It'll be good warm ups for some of the people who want to get in on that world record. Pray for sun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Levin 0 #30 March 16, 2002 QuoteSo what's with the freefly record that Dallas is supposedly having this summer? Sounds like we will have enough solid fliers to make a Texas freefly record attempt in April. Why shouldn't we give Dallas a run for the money on this one. Besides, what is the record in Texas? I'll bet we could do it.i think it would be better to work with dallas on this one instead of competing against them. the texas record is a 7-way round. a round is the hardest formation to build in both disciplines. i don't think we can do it by ourselves nor do i think dallas can do it by theirselves. but together i bet we could pull it off. i don't think goat has a round in mind anyway. more like a flower with stingers.

78RATS 0 #32 March 17, 2002 I was always told that the only record currently "recognized" is a round. The record in Texas is a 7 way set in July 99 (in Houston) with two flyers from Psycho Cirkus/ Three Orbit Punks/ and I forget who else. The shit is hard but we have come a long way since 99.

Levin 0 #34 March 17, 2002 Goat and Raymond Adams were also on the record. there were 4 video guys. david armstrong was one of them. i got all the videos of it somewhere. there will be plenty of good flyers at the spaceland freefly festival. if enough people want to try it. i'd be all for it.

Trent 0 #35 March 17, 2002 Who said by beating the Dallas record would be detrimental? Shit, if it makes them go one man bigger, then it's all good. We might as well go as big as we can while we have a lot of good fliers around. And hey, at least they'll be able to get a feel for some of the jumpers that they may need on the record. Or not. But I wouldn't pass up the chance to break a record just because someone else was planning to do it. Healthy competition. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airann 1 #36 March 17, 2002 its a FFFest... thinkin there will likely be enough folks... I am seeing Goat & crew (Dallas), Rat and his crew(SanMarc), where is Sean and McDowell? I havent heard a peep outta those guys... Speaking of Sean - I still have a coach jump ticket from yr 2000 with the dude.... by now I am thinking it is worth more due to historical purposes... guess you could say I got the last Orbit Punk coach ticket sold.Levin, you will likely find Danny Davis on the record at that time he was an Orbit Punk. Possible Ken Fillion, not sure on that one.. maybe not.... (red/wht jumpsuit) But I am not the expert on Punk history.. per se...(It just so happens to crossover into both historical documentation of Texas Street Skaters re: Zorlac Skateboards AND the historical documentation of Texas Ramp Skaters Cira- 1980ish, AND original surfers TSA, Texas Surfing Assoc Cira- 1980)( Danny Davis, I have run into 3 times in my life here...)(Ken = Pro Ramp Skater, Bark Hard -the band- and skydiving) THAT is another thread... Since David did the tape, its labled so it will only be "10,000 years !!" before you find that record tape......Ann ~ www.AirAnn.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I wouldn't pass up the chance to break a record just because someone else was planning to do it. Healthy competition.actually dallas has not set the state record yet. the attempts are scheduled for june following a series of skills camps to prepare potential participants for it. i didn't say it would be detrimental to them if we set it first. i just think it would be better to work with them instead of competing against them. after the attempts at dallas and hopefully the record will be set, then we can schedule a record attempt at spaceland to beat it. and i'm sure goat and the dallas crew will be happy to come help us break it.i agree we are going to have a lot of good flyers at the spaceland boogie, but this boogie will not be a good time to throw together a 20-way headdown with little or no preparation (dallas has devoted 4 months time to prepare for there attempts). problems with it are going to be 1.) limited number of jumps for participants due to extensive pre and post briefing that will be required of this particular record. 2.) it will seperate the more experienced jumpers from the newer jumpers. 3.) there is already to much going on. ex. competitions.on the other hand, if 7 other people want to try and break the 7-way headdown round record set at waller a couple of years ago, i'd be all for it. but imo, this will be harder than building a 20-way headdown flower with stingers.Anybody up for a 8-way headdown round?
