Check out this Cuban 8.

Loop not round - 2

Wings not level - 1

Roll not centered on the 45 - 2

That was VERY cool, but technically it was only half a Cuban 8! A Cuban 4? [sm=spinnyeyes.gif]

NO CUBAN EIGHT!!!!!

I was waitng and waiting and waiting!!!!!!

You guy's ever see that Russian girl that fly's a Yak in a stadium ? Real stuff.

Vince

Never saw that! I'm assuming it's a full scale YAK? Is there a video somewhere?

Svetlana Kapanina.
There are a ton of good videos on You Tube of her but I think the best is the one with her and Peter Besenyei in Japan.
Peter was the co-creator of the Red Bull idea with Kirby Chambliss.
Chris...

RG - Yes, full scale, and she is a knock out, at least she was on the one I saw, very beautiful girl. She sit's in the seat, just looking around like she is at lunch or something. I will try to dig one up later. Thanks for the name Chris.

Here she is:

I'm an old man and it has been many a year since I have seen a stick held like that

Ahh Svetlana... *swoon*

Wow, that's impressive! I'm a big Patty Wagstaff fan. I haven't seen Patty fly for several years so her flying style may have changed, but from what I remember Svetlana's routine seems to be much more aggressive. I liked the way Patty flew because her maneuvers were big, open and stretched out, somewhat like pattern flying! Either way, both these ladies can seriously fly! I wish I had 10% of their talent!

Got this from Skip up in Atlanta.
