Session: Sunday, June 8, 2pm, Cobbs Hill Reservoir.

I updated the website to include an announcement of next week's session. Please note that although the announcement on the web site says 3pm, we should be there by 2pm. The idea is to be there and in full swing before the general public arrives.

I have also included Chris Dean in the members section of the site. Check it out. He sent me a pretty "bad ass" picture of himself.

Speaking of Chris. Chris, please bring the "official RFA radio" to the session. If you need batteries, please let me know what size and how many and I will accommodate.

Peace.

[Edit]

It's always nice to include a link.

haha, that picture is SO badass...

edit: PS: you'll notice I've raised my bag prices by $5, but it remains at $30 for RFA members.
BRICK!

By the way, Paul, Doug, and I used your most recent contribution to my Matt Cross bag collection Sunday and it broke it so nice and played great.

hey Matt

once an RFA member always an RFA member? :wink:
I'm good on bags at the moment but if I ever get the chance it'll take a lot to stop me from throwing money at you to get an MC bag.

hahaha it's funny that none of us are smiling in the member section. it really underscores how serious we are about hack.

maybe the rest of the pics should be serious too, save for one person who is just so happy looking it's over the top.

...followed by more pictures of straight-faced members.

hAHhHa.

I hadn't thought of chris's idea before. That is really funny.

let's see... who should be happy?

my vote goes for Ian. two thumbs up, all 32 teeth. one for each panel on a footbag.

Definitely Ian is the happiest player. Or at least I hope so. Otherwise that constant grin is straight evil. 8O

Thursday at the Square, Buffalo, New York

Post by mikeanello »

Sorry for the late post. I spoke to Matt Cross earlier and he informed me that he was going to Thursday at the Square in Buffalo tonight.

Please book mark the following link:

http://www.buffaloplace.com/aboutus/mar ... eries.html

This is going to be every week and I hope the RFA can represent when available.

Speaking of availability, I will not be going this Thursday. Weekday nights are usually tied up for me, but I do plan on making a few trips to this event this year. On the nights I do go, I will be happy to drive.

Peace.

Gotta admit that looks awesome. I didn't realize you guys had gotten Chris's b2b Mobius's on camera. I missed it at the session, so I'm glad I got to see it now

Mike, I hope you'll choose to link to that in Videos so that people can see what an awesome footbag intro piece you made.

Hope to play with you all soon!

MOSES! (I sure hope that is how you spell his name...)

That is such a good intro to a website! Now everybody has no excuse to not watch Chris Dean's torques every day.

Matt Cross Blenders? So inspiring every viewer will yearn for a ripe plum to eat.

Really cool shred location too. The silhouette style for the introduction was really neat.

I'm going to watch it at least 6 more times.

Go Mike!

WILL DIGGES just called me and informed me that he will be in Syracuse tonight and is interested in shredding all night. He should be in Syracuse around 5pm.

I will post an update when I receive more information.

Will's cellphone number is 518-817-1959.

Peace.

P.S. I am not sure if I will be able to make it. I will let you know either way.
