Okay I can see him lucking into a win at the Nats and the WORLD Masters, considering the party guys who show up there, but Visalia????
 
That's the one spot in the world where dead serious is the theme.  "The Most Prestigious Soaring Competition in the history of our hobby" as it was described very late one nite at the beer trailer.... :-)
 
There isn't a single competitor who doesn't forsake family and job to practice for weeks prior to Visalia.
 
Its notorious virtually gymnastic landing tasks, test the thumbs and skills of the even the steely-est of men's metals..
 
Okay so its not exactly the epitome of a contest, but it is still the one everyone would love to win and likely the trophy that sits center on the winners mantles.  Fun and prestigious with beer ;-)
 
I pity the fool doesn't have a Sharon,and all the USA's soaring hats are off to Mike Smith, soaring's Man of the Year for 2006....not kidding.

JW did good too :-) Cody's got Skip in the caller's dog house this week :-)

Wish you all could have been there, me too :-)
