*Yes, I know this is the wrong forum but I'll move it in a few days and Houdini isn't here to complain anymore.

hey no time schedule. yet. hey what about a fixed alxle contest.

Sounds great Nathan! I am so there... any word on good places to stay while in Seatle? Also count on me if you need help during the contest.

Time schedule will be up once myself and JOhn have our final meeting with the Seattle Center people.

I don't anticipate getting a hotel sponsor so any place near Seattle Center would work. I'll try to get a list of nearby hotels up at some point.

The official divisions will just be Sport and Championship. There is still a possibility of a few side events such as a fixed axle throwdown or a FAST Challenge type thing but those will be decided on closer to the contest.

Woohoo! I'll be home from Iraq then! Yay! So how does the sport event work? I'm interested in registering but I can only do the first 17 of 25 tricks on the list. Anyone care to give me a run-down on tournement ettiquite?

For the Sport Ladder you basically start at trick one and go up. After your second miss you are done and your score is the number of the highest trick that was completed.

hehe, this is SO cool!

one of my good friends is an exchange student in Seattle ATM, and i told him about this! he is SO gonna be there! he´s reachable through me! he´s really cool! he doesnt throw... YET! hehe, but yall make him!

heh... peace out!

If a few lowly Canadians were to show up, could we try too?? :)

Of course, the contest is open entry. And last I checked there are parts of Canada in the Pacific Northwest as well.

Oooh, look at those sponsors. hehe.
Looks good.

Who's planning to be judging? Any celebs?
