I arrived from Iceland yesterday evening. It was really awesome trip including renting a car, hitchhiking, camping in a tent, treking and TOP SPINNING. I've met many old friends and many new players who I had seen just in the videos.
We tried many different tops made by Jon, Jose and others. We also played classic games with target. I've learned a new stuff like spinning a small whip top from ta0 or "left hand regens" from Jon and I also tried to teach some tricks
Competition was good. Daniel was probably pretty close to win. Before awards I was giving him better chance of winning. Jose also did very well. Jon is a legend. It's good we have new players like Futoshi. Marco lost lots of points by winding up the top
but he is a very good player. Mike's fresstyle was a big fun. It's a pitty he tangled a string.
I tried to post some photos soon
Big thanks goes to ITSA for support of our trip and get spinning medals. Thanks ta0 for bringing the raffle price. Thanks Jose for a top which is awesome and I'm going to make video soon
Thanks Marco for t-shirt and other stuff. Thanks to others for being there and having fun playing tops!
Thanks Jim for making very nice corkscrew trophy. It's a pitty you couldn't be there. Now I'm looking for the bottle of wine and I'll make an opening video
And thanks for all congratulations!
