    I tried to keep the flavor and intent of the original. Hopefully
    this is a bit easier, addresses the missing room for the slow roll,
    the lack of space before the golf ball and eases up a bit on the
    fiddly turnaround maneuvers.  I removed the 1/2 loop integrated 1/2
    roll. The maneuver is not difficult but making it LARGE is. Will try
    to fly this tomorrow. Also I believe the guide KFactor for the top
    hat is too low. Should be a three.<br>

            <div style="word-wrap:break-word">The Intermediate and
              Advanced patterns look OK, but I don't think Intermediate
              should be changed as it is only on it's 2nd year. 
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>The Masters pattern is much more difficult then the
                current. 14 of the 19 maneuvers have to be written in to
                the Guide. The assigned K-Factors are pulled out of thin
                air for many of the maneuvers. They are whatever they
                needed to be to stay under the K limit.</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>
                <div>Look at this pattern as an Advanced flier entering
                  Masters. You now have two integrated rolling
                  maneuvers. The full roll over the top 1/2 of a loop is
                  much more difficult then the 1/2 roll over the top
                  1/4. Then the turnaround 1/2 loop with 1/2 roll will
                  be much more difficult as you start low and have to
                  end up quite high for the next maneuver. It will be a
                  lengthy, difficult maneuver.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>The two maneuvers with snaps are right after each
                  other. I would think you would want separation between
                  snap maneuvers. And they will both be inside snaps.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>The vertical cuban 8 will be huge demanding lots of
                  power. </div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>There is no chance to correct your box positioning
                  after the spin. You have to go right in to the
                  opposite slow rolls which have to start early. And you
                  will be blown back in to the rolls from the spin.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>The trombone is a poor choice in between the
                  vertical cuban and the golf ball. There will be very
                  little distance in between the maneuvers. And it will
                  only be able to be flown one way. No real choice here.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>The golf ball will be much more difficult then the
                  current ke humpty. Since it is starting downwind with
                  the ke starting on a 45 degree line you will be at ke
                  for a very long time.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>The addition of instant roll reversal will make it
                  much more difficult for the incoming advanced flier.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>As far as I know, you guys did nothing to address
                  the improper make-up of the Sequence Committee. You
                  cannot expect a proper Masters pattern without
                  difficulty creep from a Committee made up of mostly
                  Masters pilots.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>This pattern will keep Advanced fliers from moving
                  up, which in most cases will have them quitting
                  pattern.</div>
                <div><br>
                </div>
                <div>Since the make-up of the Sequence Committee does
                  not follow the charter, with very little
                  representation amongst the classes, this is a top
                  heavy schedule. From my own personal standpoint, make
                  Masters as hard as you want to. I have plenty of time
                  to practice. But it will be a smaller group of Masters
                  fliers.</div>

                                          Thanks for the reply.<br clear="none">
                                          One suggestion I have is to
                                          reinstitute the physical board
                                          meeting at the Nats or perhaps
                                          a meeting with beer and
                                          whatever. It's a great
                                          opportunity to meet your
                                          fellow board members and
                                          discuss the future of pattern.
                                          Just keep it informal and fun.
                                          The idea is more to form
                                          connections then to discuss
                                          normal board business.<br clear="none">
                                          <br clear="none">
                                          Concerning the list, set up a
                                          local folder for the list and
                                          use a filter to dump into it.
                                          Then you have no additional
                                          inbox clutter and its easy to
                                          tell when there is a hot
                                          topic.<br clear="none">

                                                          would suggest
                                                          having forms
                                                          available at
                                                          contest to

                                                          throughout the

                                                          sequences.<br clear="none">
                                                          > At the
                                                          end of the
                                                          year, the
                                                          committee
                                                          would publish
recommendations for how to generate sequences for all classes. A
                                                          recommendation
                                                          I could make
                                                          right now is
                                                          that the board
                                                          ensures the
                                                          committee
                                                          adheres to the
                                                          guidelines and
                                                          charter. The
                                                          committee
                                                          could make
                                                          changes to the
                                                          documents but
                                                          would need
                                                          board approval
                                                          for those
                                                          changes prior
