Its worth it man. Me and Dave B will be there hanging out sat night and Benny Kellman will be there Sunday. The address for the camp grounds is on .org listing. There are showers and bathrooms. We will probably go hang out at the host hotel after we shower.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Funktasticles! :P

edit: I wish I could have played more. It was a real shame that I injured my ankle. I only have myself to blame.

At the very least, there may be two more Funtastiks in the future. :wink: :)

I had a really good time at Funtastiks again this year.

Does anybody have competition footage to share? I'd really like to see my routine as well as some others.

Adrienne filmed Dave and my finals routines, but she can't find the cord that connects the camera to a computer. I think Brenda filmed all comp, and said she'd put it up sometime, but it sounded like she was going to get somebody else to put it up, so no idea when that will be.

Anybody else film?

I'm pretty sure Genevieve Bousquet did a bunch of filming during finals routines. She was standing right between me and you while you were going dropless, Ken, so, I didn't really see your routine, even if I was looking right at ya... Sorry.
