Rolling, Strolling and Trolling

Mixing up the pairs proved to be a worthwhile effort. The direct contact with a good example worked to every one's advantage, even with the performance reduction that was encountered at the outset. The pairs were cajoling the Eights along the meshwork at phenomenal speeds, giving me quite the task of maintaining a normal attitude with respect to the meshwork.

After ramping up to their maximum potential, I pulled them aside and asked them if they were ready to do some serious work, adding that their improved skills were greatly appreciated. All four of the recruits flipped in agreement, alternating paring amongst themselves to keep within close proximity, and eager for new experiences. They were going to need all the enthusiasm they could muster.

Bopping along the meshworks we rolled, diving underneath and through several along the way. I took quite a bit of maneuvering and mode switching to penetrate the meshworks, but it was far faster that waiting for random tunnels to open and move you across impossible gradients. With a team like the recruits from the Canopy, I was beginning consider the deployments that were soon to become possible.
