EricMilfeld Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm probably gonna drive up. I never loved flying, but here recently have grown to detest it. My little Yaris should get about 40 on the highway. And good gas mileage, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was $510. Better than the $600 last time I went. I paid $430. Originally when I was pricing flights, it was $360, but I dawdled and it went up $70.

Yeah the airline websites seem to know when to jack tghe price up. When I went two years ago I had the flights in the website shopping cart but I delayed 15 min before paying the bill. They "re-calculated" the latest price which happened to be $100 more all of a sudden. What a scam. 15 min cost me $100 because they knew I was staring at that flight. Looking forward to seeing you there. Looks like a big crowd this year. Awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Will a list of the medley implements and feats be provided before the contest? I'm specifically curious if phonebooks will be included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andurniat Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Will a list of the medley implements and feats be provided before the contest? I'm specifically curious if phonebooks will be included. I will put the list of medley items together this weekend. I doubt a phonebook will be included due to the high expected attendence. We will have a reverse bend, but I'll get into as many details as possible on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Roussin Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thanks for the list, Andrew. Have you timed this? Is it possible to attempt all elements in 4 minutes? It doesn't seem like a very long time to complete 58 lifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't seem like a very long time to complete 58 lifts. I doubt anyone will complete all 58 in the time limit. Strategy will be key what is the width on the sorinex saxon bar. blob or blob 50? modern york hub or old york is the monster bell the same weight as last year? Saxon bar width is 3" My Blob (not Blob50) your old york45 from hub MonsterBell is loaded to 155# up from 125# last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
