Of course there is going to be more posts when your team wins, and a high percentage of readers here are from the USA.
Here is a congratulations to David Hobby from myself, I am a big F3J fan and it is hard to believe his first F3J tows were in Canada. I love this picture...

Why, because he has his secret weapon in his hand, Roo! Roo spent the last two years traveling across the USA watching, learning and drinking beer with all of our best pilots.
He was seen in the Rockies practicing F3J with the US F3J TM and LSF President at the time:

He was seen at the 2003 U.S. Nationals "inspecting" the official scoring computer:

There are other pictures of Roo's travels across the states, we need to dig them up. 8-)
Congratulations again to David and team Australia!
P.S. Did you remember to pack Roo and take him home? 8-)

Thanks to Bill and Simon for finally making mention of the results in the W.C. F3J. I seem to recall many, many posts of congratulations after the last W.C's when Team USA featured strongly. Strangely quiet this time around. Seems it was a hard fought contest, with many tales of woe, and "if only's", but an excellent result all round. In Australia, we do not have an F3J competition round, so the result is even more satisfying. Congrats to David Hobby, the new Australian World Champion, and the entire team and supporters. Well done. Another site with reports, is at http://www.lsfaustralia.org.au/News.htm
