Floating Swooper

Img_0510 Brian McNenney (yep, the same one that just took home the gold in the first FLCPA meet of the year) was recently interviewed by a TV station in Tallahassee, for their sports section.  Because of the sports element, the focus was on Brian's competition swooping as a member of the US Canopy Piloting Team.  Brian took 4th place at the recent World Cup in Australia .
As a part of the interview, Brian filmed the reporter during a tandem jump at the School of Human Flight in Tallahassee.  You can see the story here along with some video - check it out.
The article mentions that Brian is really good (one of the best in the nation) at "floating at high altitudes". 
We are not exactly sure what that is, so if anyone has a video of Brian doing his floating thing, we would love to see it :)
