upndownshop 0 #1 February 27, 2008 Heard the decision has been made released in SD Magazine. Have not seen it yet but received a phone call as to such. This year is canceled. Staff and Don can at least be proud of the great running it had for many years. Left a great mark in our SD history. Thank you all involved for the many years of such a great event.

upndownshop 0 #4 February 27, 2008 QuoteWhat was the announcement? That WFFC will never happen again? I didnt get that far in the conversation, this year as I was told. But I would imagine to start over would be a more difficult and larger risk than starting it in the first place. The future will be quite interesting.

I was told this just now from those inside too, but that's a bit more information than needs to be known right now, tall slut! I did just hear that WFFC '09 is a go BUT..... DO NOT take my word for it. Wait for an official announcement, please. I told those inside that if there really is to be an '09, they need to announce it really soon, preferably before THIS boogie season kicks off. Anyway, I'll still wear my rig with pride. Be it up here, at the WFFC, Summerfest, or any other DZ or boogie I may wander in to at any time. It's your life, live it!

upndownshop 0 #16 February 28, 2008 QuoteWhat was the announcement? That WFFC will never happen again? Yeah I did not mean to sound like it would never happen again, even though it reads as such. I really just wanted to thank those involved, I for one know the amount of hard work that is put into events like this and its always nice to hear that wonderful "Thank you".

bigway 4 #17 February 28, 2008 I really hope it goes ahead. I met some of the greatest people at the last one and do look at the WFFC as one of the best moments of my life. I just hope they announce the dates and guarantee the dates and the event a good year in advance so plans can be made. .Karnage Krew Gear Store .

If I promise to come down this year, do you promise to show me that video? I do understand if it was lost and/or destroyed though. That gives us a reason to make a new one. It's your life, live it!

Unstable 9 #21 February 29, 2008 This is terrible. If anything, the WFFC was a great way for our sport in general to centralize the accumulated knowledge and advancements - new gear demos, canopy demonstrations, seminars, rigging workshops, et cetera. What do we have now. The Pia Synopsium? =========Shaun ========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
