Please remove me from the attendees list. My request for time off from work was rejected. I'm really disappointed.
Wow, awesome first post on the page. The next 19 posts should just be pictures of people crying.

Routine's criteria reminder:
1. Variety: variety of components, both sideness, originality
2. Difficulty: difficult moves, density, long runs
3. Execution: good bag control, low drop count, clean dexes, good body posture
4. Structure: intro/ending, themes, transitions, respecting time limit (1:30 to 2:00 minutes)
5. Dynamics: floor and space use, different speed and intensity
6. Use of music: choreography following the structure and dynamics of the song, moves synchronized with music
elements that won't give a higher score:
1. acting (singing, dancing, joking, etc)
2. using other objects (yoyo, soccer ball, etc.)
3. long intro without the bag
4. interacting with judges
5. 2:00 minutes over 1:30 minutes
Open Circle will be 2 phases, 3 turns per phase:
phase 1 = variety
phase 2 = density

Hi Paul-Olivier. I'm new in Montreal so I had to check for Longueuil on a map.
-Can I come with my friend just to watch you ?
We'd rather if you came to play!
-And can we hope to have a chance to play with you ?
YES.
-And last things : Can we hope having some advice from you ?
Yes!
There isn't really any need to come early - we all expect to play a lot of footbag over those three days.
Votre Anglais est meilleur que mon Francais

For a small fee of $5 USD/CAD, I can repair bags that have popped stitches. 
I might bring a girl to this event as well, but no promises.

Girls? They are the things with leather skin and horns, in theory righteous footbaggers stay away from them. Side effects can include loss of time, sanity, and the hair on your chest.
It looks like I will have to do a Clavens at this tournament, because my back is sprained, and I wont be able to practice my routines until I actually have to do them. I probably wont be able to do any sideline shred either
Still stoked
