3D Joy,

Thanks for the response. We are having an IMAC get together this weekend in Cincinnati to fly through all of these sequences. We'll keep your comments in mind as we work through them. In general, I would say that the decision to move up should not be based on the proposed known sequences, but rather the mastery of the fundamentals from the class in which you are currently competing. However, since you are in Canada, I know that practice time is probably limited (hard to believe it could be less than here!) so I can understand your hesitation. None of the sequences look bad to me on paper - but hopefully we can learn more this weekend.

Definitely leave your comments on the website!

Keep us posted about this IMAC get together. I would like comments from people actally flying the sequences, especially in Unlimited.

In Advanced, there are 2 main points to learn IMO. Those points are negative snaps and rollers. Sure the other maneuvers get more complicated but those are the 2 BIG elements that seem very hard to perform at first glance. I do like the way my rollers look like and my snaps still need some work but they are at least good enough to score 95% of the time at least. Soooo I think I am ready for Unlimited but looking at proposals I am not sure...

We had snow this week... I can still practice my reflexes with a foamy and simulator...
