Holy CRAP this is the most addictingly fun tunnel I have ever flown, I can't tell you how many times we said to ourselves "aww just 15 more minutes." Column of air is very fast and smooth. Flying outdoor with no walls at all takes a lot of getting used to, you have to re-learn depth perception. But falling out is not a problem (as long as you tuck and roll) because the circus style net rocks. Another tunnel that is super fun to fly, and even more fun to fly with others. John Suiter and Keith Kimbrough are incredible flyers and gentlemen all around.  We had a blast sharing the air with them. Owner Chris Landon is a hell of a nice guy as well. The location is great too, right in the Great Smoky Mountains, beautiful scenery.  Because its out doors a lot of the pics we took look like skydivers with no rigs on!  Can't wait to come back in October for the Halloween BOOgie!

Plan to return: yes
Going to fly elsewhere too?: yes
