Cyclone

SuperSportsman just sent of picture of his Cyclone on skis, taken after playing on the lakes yesterday near Nestor Falls Ontario. Beautiful plane. He did mention getting stuck in the slush. Most of the lakes I have been on lately have more than their share of slush at the moment, -30's temps on the way should help that problem out, something you guys not landing on lakes don't have to deal with.

Re: Cyclone

Glad you did not get stuck, when you said "went through slush" I thought you meant the worst. Getting that beast un-stuck out of slush may require re-enforcements.
