mdrejhon 8 #126 January 19, 2006 QuoteYeah, just wait until you have all these Canadians crashing on your couch when they come to use the tunnel.I promise it won't be Hockey I'll turn on to -- Not all of us Canadians actuaually like the Hockey stuff -- and I prefer a good Heineken or other interesting premium brand.

freefalling2day 0 #127 January 19, 2006 well we will be glad to have you visit us. I don't know if you had heard but Nancy of Ouragan suits has or is moving her business to Canada. In fact all of our instructors will be wearing her suits. She makes an awesome tunnel suit and we look forward to seeing her at our tunnel from time to time. Not much new on our site today other than RAIN,.. RAIN,.. and RAIN. The steel crew did not work today due to the weather but will be there tomorrow. I will be posting new pictures tomorrow.

freefalling2day 0 #128 January 19, 2006 Just another update,... For those of you who don't know Rob and I are very pleased to announce that Omar from Skyventure Orlando will be coming up to work with us. Yes,.. he is leaving FL behind and coming to live in the live free or die state. Omar is a senior manager at Skyventure Orlando and will be the god of all things flying at our tunnel and much more. I don't think that we could of found a better person to help us run our tunnel. Omar is a wonderful person and will bring a great vibe to our tunnel. If you don't know Omar once you meet him I think you will all agree that he is a perfect person to be on our team at Skyventure NH. So If you are down in Orlando at the tunnel make sure you don't tell Omar how cold it can get up here! No,.. just kidding! He was just here for our 5 below weather and loved it. I believe that his last day at Skyventure Orlando is around mid March. Blue Skies! Laurie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mdrejhon 8 #130 January 20, 2006 Okay, NOW it's starting to faintly resemble the Colorado one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites staceyg 0 #131 January 21, 2006 Hmm...so maybe I should chuck the roomie and open the "Home For Wayward Canadian Tunnel Flyers" I seem to be losing my taste for beer (horrors!). It really isn't doing it for me any more. However, I can be bribed with Sangria, Mai Tais, Singapore Slings or one of the many other yummy drinks out there!

Nice try...I have enough trouble picking up after myself (kidding)! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites lurch 0 #136 January 23, 2006 Now MY question is, can I fly Birdman in the tunnel? Does anyone DO that? Maybe I should ask in the birdforum..... Will I get in trouble if I'm caught flying my suit outside on top of the building surfing on the tunnel exhaust vents? Don't need full speed for that, could be effective advertising, look for the guy visible from the main road hanging in space above the CVS. You could fly me like those balloons the local car dealerships like to put up...Live and learn... or die, and teach by example. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites freefalling2day 0 #137 January 25, 2006 Not sure on that one. I don't know if anyone has taken a bird suit in a tunnel like Skyventure. I am also not sure what skills it could gain you. You can try and surf the air out of the return air towers but please don't dent the building when you hit it! Blue Skies!

Well another week has passed and our tunnel is coming along nicely. The steel crew is working hard and have now started the final torque on the bolts. We have our last shipment of fiberglass arriving from FL on Monday. Rob and I spent a good part of the week planning every fixture and every outlet in the place. We have also come up with some really COOL features for the tunnel. The airflow parts will be going in place starting the 6th of Feb. I will keep everyone posted when that is happening along with pictures!!! Blue Skies and warm weather,.. I hope.
