Hello, fellow gripsters!

Transport:
The closest airport is KRS Kristiansand Kjevik. It's about 1 hour drive from the hotel. All athletes that arrives here will get picked up by our crew for only 100 NOK each way. If you arrive at Sandefjord Torp Airport, we could also be helpful with transport, depended on the arrival time. About 2,5hours drive and 200 NOK each way.
Athletes that arrives at Gardemoen will have to take a bus or train at their own cost. With bus it's about 5 hours, and costs around 50 EUR each way. 
We will organize the transport from the hotel to the venue both ways for free. 

Afterparty:
I will try to find a suitable night club where we can have some food and drinks after the competition.

Great comp, 93 kg on the brutalizer is most definitely very brutal!

Rebecca Roberts blockbuster pinch is also very impressive and level 18 on the Vulcan by a 15 year old is also very extraordinary.
