Title: Bude, March 17th, UK
Post by: The Void on 03 March, 2018, 17:21:29
Bude!
(http://kendama.co.uk/images/BudeTude_Poster.jpg)

I'm heading down to Airculture on the 17th, to check out the local seaside clickers, and run some minicomps and more. I hear there's quite the little scene going on there, so I look forward to meeting up with them all.

Airculture Ltd, Belle Vue, Bude, Cornwall EX23 8JS.

I'll update this post by next weekend when I've decided on comp formats/tricks.

I'll run Kyu gradings exams (see "Skill Levels" here (http://kendama.co.uk/tricks.html)) for anyone who wants one. There is a fee of £2 for this, but everyone who takes one will go into a free prize draw.

APPROX SCHEDULE:
11:30-12:30 Hello! Hang out, trick swaps, jam.
12:30-14:30 Gradings and a few games.
15:00-16:00 Speed Ladders (Beg/Int/Adv). Prizes for Ladders and grading draw.
16:00-17:00 Chill jams.

SPEED LADDERS
(The tricks are the same as a previous comp, the LXG. Don't get confused by the logo in the videos. :) )
Use any competition-sized (http://kendama.co.uk/size.html) kendama. (Spares available to borrow.) No oversizes.
You may only enter ONE of Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced divisions.
You must complete all the tricks in a combo before moving on. (i.e. No restarting half-way through a combo.)
Read the rules in the video for each trick/combo.

Good times today. Had 10 players through the day (maybe the weather put some off?), 5 of whom were able to stay around for the ladders. Also 5 took gradings. I was asked several times for my "best trick", and also told several times that I was showing off. :D Fun games of KEN and Last Man Standing, and general play.
Cheers to Toby at Airculture for hosting. We may have to do this again sometime...
