Congrats to Morry and Sam. There is alot more there that is scary good.

awesome. Its scary when you look at some of the things your doing right, then look at your pr. then look back at all the things you could improve on. Your going to be jumping really big soon once you get a couple more key things figured out. (as if your not already)

Congrats to Morry and Sam. There is alot more there that is scary good.

Thanks Kevin! This was the first time he has ever planted from 8 lefts. We've got some work to do on his timing at the plant from that distance. He was at least a foot under all day but he muscled through it and made it work for now. I can't wait to see what he can jump when he finishes his take-off like I've seen him do from shorter runs.

i was going to say... lol the fact that he was at least a foot under was another wow. but hey you can get away with that when your tall. great stuff. hope to be up there soon to!
