Try this trick Ollie--
get 3 to 4 feet from the monitor. hold a pencil vertically out in front of you at arm's length, with the tip pointed up, in between the images and at the same height as the kites. focus on the pencil tip, and sloooowly bring it closer to your face. keep focusing on the pencil tip as you do this.. the images will begin to merge. at some point, when the kites from the 2 images start getting close to overlapping, your brain will favor the vibrant kites over the boring pencil tip, and will take over from there and force your eyes to adjust to make the kites merge. at this point, lower the pencil out of view, and... voila! :rolleyes:
And I'd love to do this for one of your double loops. If you're going to be out at sherman this weekend, let's set it up.

Thanks Rob. I got some good ones of you and Rick tonight, including my favorite below. It's going to look killer once I figure out how to get rid of the camera shake and then turn it into 3D too. Then you'll really be able to see that you and your board are exactly in the middle of the tules. :twisted:
