| I know I took a bit longer getting this together than I'd hoped, but it's finally here. Crossed Fingers 2 , the Uk's second championships, 31st August. You can read more here: http://www.unitefingerboarding.com/2013/06/crossed-fingers-2.html - but I'd like to explain some things in more depth to you guys also: 1- Price increase: Basically, the cost of the venue went up and other things. I could have had it £8 to get in and then only half the prize money, but I think personally I'd rather pay an extra £2 to get in to make the event have soo many more prizes. The prize breakdown is £100 1st place,£50 2nd place, £30 3rd place, and £20 best trick (counted during all rounds of the competition). If I made it £8 to get in, only £100 could be prizes. Either way I'm probably going to loose a tiny bit from holding this event, so don't think this is going to be me making a ton of money. I project the cost to be around £400 to hold it and sort everything! 2- The blurred out bit isn't confirmed yet, but I'm hoping to get my friend who's a DJ to DJ the event, which should be rad. 3- Not really a point to explain, but to stress: If you want to come, which I really hope you guys do, I advise making travel plans early so you can get it cheap. It's worth having a look now, or this weekend or something. You've got almost three months, don't waste the early advantage. Either way - I hope to see as many as possible of you guys there, I think it'll be a fantastic time and I'm really looking forward to it. More news soon |

| I'll try to make this, but I'm not sure I can afford it since Xi isn't driving and the coach is £64 :/ Sounds good though |

| I don't live in the UK, but at some points I do since the fingerboarding scene in Europe is much larger. Unless I wanted to go overseas I can't... |

| stoked to see you guys there! I'm sorting sponsor stuff this weekend so expect some more news soon. If any companies are interested in sponsoring and don't hear from me by sunday, drop me a message or something. Obviously don't feel like you have too but the offer is there incase I forget someone who previously showed interest |

| Ahh, I was planning on travelling on the 30th since I can't be arsed being super tired and probably missing the first hour or so of the event. I'd also need to plan in a day or something to visit my dad for a few hours, since he lives in Bristol too. |

| Yeah that 17 quid each way from Leeds is impossible for me due to the hours. I have no way to get to Leeds at that time.
I'd like to mention some feedback on one aspect of the last 2 crust fungus events though. Could you put some time slot in the timetable (like around 12-1) for a time advisable to have lunch? The first time, I remember you announcing the main comp starting soon and I decided to wait for the comp. But of course, the comp is three rounds and does take a while. Lack of food made me a little bit ill. At CF420YOLOSWAG, I think people had lunch after the comp too.
Hope I can make it somehow. |
