Are you hungry? Do you like Japanese food?

Here is your serving of 5 different types of sushi from Akihiro"Sushi "Hidaka:

But if you prefer ramen, we have you covered. Kazuhiro"Ramen"Akasaka opens his ramen kitchen for you:

Akihiro is a cook in a Sushi restaurant and Kazuhiro owns a ramen shop, so you are getting the real thing!

John Lopez, I am looking at your judging scores and I ask you how Guillem did not make your top 5? I question your motives.

John Lopez, estoy mirando tus puntajes de evaluación y te pregunto cómo Guillem no llegó a tu top 5. Cuestiono tus motivos.

Perhaps we could set up judging differently for the online contest in the future by having separate style divisions which are self-judged, deciding who is champion for each style, and then an official ITSA judging panel takes the top three of each division for the overall championships. I would love to see a Columbian style champion, a Chonkakegoma Champion, A Mexican Trompo Champion, Koma Champion, Target Shooting, and perhaps a Western Style Champion.

Peer judging is made public to pressure the players to vote fairly. So, calling out disingenuous voting is fine.
The Spanish Ambassador has logged a complaint and the Review Panel (and to some extend the International Board) are looking into this. I'm hopeful that they will arrive to a fair decision that will be accepted by those involved.

I think this could be possible for an online contest and I agree that it could be great. For an in person contest, we probably do not have yet enough participants, but it may happen at one time.

There were two performances that where filmed in a theater stage and were polished like a true artistic show. One was Miki's. The other one was from Gerardo who, as it's pretty obvious, is also a professional magician:

Here the word "tricks" has two very different meanings  >:D

Thank you for staying so late for the award ceremony!

Would you come to Hungary? That would be fantastic!
I'm already feeling the anticipation for Japan 2022!
In 2015 the yo-yo event was already over the top. In 2022 it's going to be insane! And with the growth of the Japanese koma community, it's going to be mind-boggling !  8)

You had a great freestyle and were close in votes to third place. I specially liked the behind the back whip and the soloham with two komas which is a crazy trick to try on stage.

I posted the full results of ladder with video links on https://spintops.org/2020-world-results/
Beth and Mark did great, making #16 and #15, respectively. They used komas for most of the tricks!
Dave recorded not just for the judges but for the public, explaining what he was doing.
Pepe like Dave had no misses until #24 Roller Coaster to Hand
Markus got an early miss with #11 Trapeze, but to his credit he re-did it (given the rules this is an unnecessary risk). His third miss did not come up to #34, One-handed Trapeze.
The one that was a killer for everybody who reach it, was #27 the Whip.

Congratulations Markus! Reaching to #33 is a great accomplishment.

I'm very serious on creating a ladder challenge, with a forum patch and an archive of record times. But we need to optimize the ladder first.

The Award Ceremony by Zoom:

2020 World Spintop Online Contest Award Ceremony

I think you should be able to watch it without a password. It will probably expire in one month, but I'm planning to move it to youtube before that.

This is the first time I manage a zoom meeting and could have done a lot of things better, but I think you will enjoy it.

I think that Taka's chonkakegoma might have been the most difficult of them, concentrating the most challenging tricks in a short time without all the fill-in regens. But I feel the kyokugoma part might have missed some of the gravitas of a traditional performance. The ending probably didn't help in that respect.
