Ah this would be so fun to attend. A white Mugen would be awesome... but I'm afraid I'll just never be able to bring myself to pay current Mugen prices

The speed trick winner had a horrible way of doing things. A few of the tricks wasnt executed properly. Candlestick in particular.
But congrats to all the winners. :-)

Was an amazing couple of dama days, the level was so high! I will write more especially the post comp stuff in the evening when I have caught up on sleep in a real bed! I think I may have been won over by one of Alex's Bilbo's though... Many friendly faces, can't wait to see them all again, safe journey home!

I'm curious, what is "Munich Tower"? I suspect it's not a conventional trick, but I wonder what it was that made him win best trick?
Kendama Belgium!

Very impressive the beginners competition.

And I see that I am no longer the Spanish Champion... that's good, now I have a new challenge :)

The best trick was put up on JugglingLive: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/16556320

If you skip to 10.24, then you can see me pull the trick. Not too hard, but novel :-)

great meeting all of you, had a great time!
Void, how those the score works? how is it that i have more misses than points? haha

Nicolas :)
