Droppage From Above

Our YGD helicopter was hovering over Roanoke Twilight Crit a couple weekends ago looking for droppage. It was found. Word on the street is that Ruth Stornetta has a pretty sweet 'throat slit' movement when yanking the droppeto. Free pair of socks if we can get images of this while in full effect.
