| We were unable to get to this guy to sort him out in time, before the photographer started snapping away at him. He's properly trained now, and will probably send out a hit squad if he finds out I posted it here

The use of a single stage that's double clipped and other stages being nose clipped?

| Here's one..getting caught on debris http://youtube.com/watch?v=M-yjNkUi_Bk note to self : make sure your bungee loops DO NOT lie outside the pockets. It was like getting plucked with that hook they used in the old Vaudville days to drag people off stage.

| So Leigh .. are you Wooferbitch? Nice movies - I like the Ice one thats on youtube. Just spent a week in Canada - I didn't get any diving in but it was good to see the Leafs win over the Islanders and even better to see Billy Connolly in Toronto that week. But I do have one question - where did the sand come from on Wasaga Beach? Its a lake so is the lake full of fresh water Parrot fish or is it a geological phenomenon Edit - bit off topic but I am interested in sand

I (sadly) have quite a bit but generally edit it out as not to embarrass people. I have a clip from Maui of a diver at 80 feet slamming *backwards* into the back wall fast enough that I was amazed she did not get whiplash. Very sad for the reef. Plenty of footage of really quite poor diving.

| Thanks ! Many moons ago the glaciers did a number on the landscape..leaving sand behind ( a very non technical explanation ) No Parrot fish, but there are lots of Lampreys.
