My guess would be Eric Ecsbach, the former High School Record holder.

Definetely not Eshbach. No doubt about it.

I cant wait to see some video!! So are you training on your own or with a coach? That would seem pretty tough to do without some coach, at any level, to help you get back into the groove.

Not Borya. I've been in contact with him recently. He flys jets in the Navy Top Gun program.

I still think it's Brian Hunter, formerly of University of Texas. I saw him at a little meet last summer looking SUPER fit. I don't think he jumped in the meet - maybe a practice afterwards.
