Could be, but how many of us could make 25' trip after a jump?


I have a "Beer Girl" for just such occasions. (she could even wear her olympic uniform for you guys while serving.)

Well, I've been to 2 training sessions at Higher Flyers down in Huntington Beach and I'm loving it. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sore as hell after the first session but what a blast. Can't wait until I'm bending the pole.

HIP Athletics (http://www.hipathletics.com/) had open sessions and now uses a facility is Elkton, MD (http://www.aasportsacademy.com/) Tues and Thurs evening. It is a hike from DC, but also the closest I have found to Baltimore since moving here. :(
I have emailed Chris the coach at pvcoach1 at gmail who has been very responsive and plan on heading up there this Tuesday.
You should contact him!
