I'll be there Friday. Really looking forward to the shoot and to hopefully meet some of you guys.
Here is a link I created thru Google Maps. You can click anywhere on the map to move it around and zoom in/out to help you find your way. GPS probably won't figure it since it is out in the 'boonies'.

So what did everyone think of the FPI Demo. I had to leave and missed the last 15 or so items, but what I saw really impressed. I loved the new Vulcan pod cakes. The new Brothers shell kits looked nice, but seemed expensive. Also the 500g East to West and the 9 shot Glory Honor Power were awesome.

The best items were the Brothers 9 shot racks and the Vulcan modular units.East To West was very nice,and I liked the silver spinners in Full Throttle.Too bad the Flower King items did not make.I had heard they were supposed to be very good.Most of the Peguin items were crappy.The chicken and the whoopie pies were very good also.

Second that on the Vulcans! WOW!!
I was replaying my video and they said there are different configurations for these. Do you know any more about them? I didn't walk down the hill to look at them before the show so I don't know how they were set up? I am assuming they mean the angles can be reconfigured?

They carry 24 different ones of them.The 1" are 13 shot.The 1 1/2 are 7 shot.The 2" are 5 shot and the 2 1/2 are 3 shot.Some shoot all at once others shoot in a fan.

I new I should have tried the chicken. There were some big z cakes at the end of the demo, how where they? Where they worth the price?

There wasn't any chicken left, Murph ate all of it. :) The 3 big Z cakes at the end were "Bursting with Pride" 192s 1/1 and the other was "Stretching the Limit" 350s..2/1 also "Z Tommy Gun" 360s 1/1. Price is right on these,especially STL packed 2/1. To be honest, with all the new zipper cakes out this year I'm stuck on UP Platinum Pro Series. "Amazing Ballet" still looks good. "Sky Sweeper"/"High Stepper" at Patriotic also hold up. Word from the folks at FPI is that the new Flower King and Dominator items were the ones to see. Until they arrive and someone can post a review, will have to wait.
