Great flight of the Sooper Neon!  Straight, Fast boost on a big blue flame.  Slowed down quick after burnout, arcing over at the top of the climb.  Good drogue deployment at apogee, good main deployment at 500'  Landed on the lakebed about 1/4 mile out.  The main chute caught the wind and the rocket got dragged a couple hunderd yards before I caught it.  No major damage, but starting to look a little beat up.
