Dennis,
Hey, thanx for the response.....
My comment was based upon the rules for the competition many years ago when you entered a "crew" for the tournament. Each "crew" had to complete 4 events and the score for each "event " or "round" were totaled up to give your score. Therefore you could NOT have one pilot complete in "event/round" 1, and a separate pilot for "event/round 2". The score was cumulative. I sucked at event 1 and 3, but did well on 2 and the long line skills event 4....... I would have loved to have another pilot fly 1 & 3---alas NOT allowed.
"Event/round" 5 was the freestyle event but did NOT count towards any teams score. It was my belief at the time, that one had to be a "competing" pilot in the championships to be able to compete in "Event/round" 5. Obviously this was not the case.
I believe it should be a separate competition, OR you should be a full team member and compete in all events, hence my comments earlier....
Good luck all the same.....
