Wow!

I would have loved to have watched that one.... Pucker factor of 10 maybe???

I flew the routine six times yesterday in the four wind directions to see if
there were any nasties. You have to think hard when rolling in the top hats
and humpties to make sure you come out right.

There appears to be no real power-hog requirements except perhaps in the
reverse avalanche. The vertical square eight does not have long up-lines so
power is OK there.

One thing I did note was that you must push the box with mid entry fig-9 to
leave room for the slow roll.

You also have to separate the reverse KE and 1/4-1/2-1/4 roll mechanics in
your mind. Had a few mind-locks a split second before rolling into them.

Regards,

Eric.

Eric,
I get it now! Sort of a diamond cuban eight. I was doing the maneuver 
vertically.
