Friday morning started late as there was about 3+ hours of fog cover. When
it was finally cleared enough to fly, sorta, we started with freestyle first
since you could adjust your flight for low cloud cover. They used the same
flight order as it would have been if we had flown freestyle last instead of
first, so that put me up in the 21st spot. I could finally watch most
everyone's freestyle. When it was finally our turn for the freestyle, I
pulled off a good one. To my amazement, I placed 4th with it. Well, with the
"hard stuff" out of the way, we went on to fly the Known and Unknown,
placing 3rd and 4th respectively. So the semi-finals results were announced
at the barbeque and the top 7 were onto the finals:

1st: Q. Somenzini
2nd: C.P. LeRoux
3rd: Me
4th: M. Leseburg
5th: Sebastiano Silvestri
6th: Chip Hyde
7th: Peter Goldsmith
