Would we have to pay the spectator fee to actually gain entry?

I'd love to come, but can no longer do meets on Saturday :(
Any chance of any other meets any time soon???

You (anyone) can organise a meet whenever you like.

Good point!

Found the FB page (https://www.facebook.com/events/357867594550424/?active_tab=discussion). Mentions the kendama ladder, but not what the ladder actually is. @Cand1ez @Paul_S Are either of you sorting that out? No-one's asked me, I don't know anything about it. I'd be interested in entering, but not if I don't know what the ladder tricks are. :-/

heya,
sorry the original post is outdated, andy is organising and I think hes going to run a 7 to spike

Thanks @Paul_S !

@Dimensions gutted :(

Cheers to @Cand1ez for organising, @Paul_S & Yuji for judging, @BenPycroft24 @ltdama @DarrenTheJew @fiddletriks @Its_mrdiz Matt (from Kent) for competing, @kayadama  Kim & Courts (from Devon) for showing up. Nice to meet three new players today, and to have fun with general jamming and trick swapping as well as the comp. (New dudes, if you're reading this, get signed up to the forum, and add yourselves to the Member Map!)

The posh camera footage will allegedly go online "sometime next week". I'll post as soon as I find out where.

I had fun yesterday. It was nice to see some old faces, and many new ones, and, as usual, marvel at how far behind the yo-yo curve I really am these days. I was pleased to *finally* win the "Tricl Ladder" (as it shall henceforth be known), especially after missing a bind on trick #2. Good turnout of kendama players too.

Thanks of course to Simon, Grace, Luke, Liam, Andy, Paul, and all who organised/judged/helped/competed/just plain old showed up. And the sponsors, who rock.
