That's the right attitude - generally people seem to feel too much pressure about trying to shoot a continuous 60 second video. Anyone who can keep a kite in the air can do that, and it's even possible to get good marks without attempting anything crazy.
Then again, many people like a bit of pressure when they're flying - me included - and VF provides a platform for them too. It's fun to know something is at stake when you're going for that final big trick - makes you fly sharper. Those who like that feeling and have access to competitions are lucky, but with VF, it's available to the rest of us too. That's why I hope VF will survive.
