Paulipod 0 #1 January 6, 2006 Ok peeps... Quite excited to tell you that we are organising a competition which we are planning to be quite an event. We are inviting flyers from anywhere who want to prove their skill and walk away with some pretty impressive prizes On the 8th + 9th April 2006 we will hold the first Bodyflight World Challenge with open events for 2-way freefly and 4-way relative. Full details of the event schedule / rules / entry details etc will be posted shortly.. At this stage I will tell you though that there will be some substantial rewards for the first 4 places in each category as we want to see some of the best flying on show. Will follow up with the full event details soon - but happy to answer any questions in the meantime. This will hopefully be an annual event.
