Those are great shots!


That's me on the right:



And on the left:



I was team captain for Wildcat 5 when they came to Portland. I spent 2 months building our "craft" out of a funky trike looking thing. It was a blast and I would recomend signing up for one if it comes anywhere near you. I got a ton of free product, a hat, shirts, a nice bath robe with the team name on it, free drinks at the after party, and a DVD of the entire event. It was a ton of work, but it was a lot of fun too. I also got paid to do it because the National Guard considered it a recruiting event :D

We were going to go, but heard it sucked to be a spectator from previous events, so we bailed and rode the furnace. I'm sure it'd be fun to 'compete'.

I don't know why they said that - we had a blast - Red Bull puts on one hell of a good time. Best of all it was FREE
I think it was posted on here earlier this year from the Phoenix Flugtag. I had been looking forward to it, but thye made some points about being hard to see, and not much fun for anyone but the 'few' that were able to get in close. Maybe RedBull changed it based on the venue.

I did have some sketches going for a design, but bailed on them for this year due to the new baby arrival in a few weeks. (I've already got enough on my plate.) Maybe next year if it comes back.
