To me, this was an awesome event to experience through the videos and photos posted on the web. A high level event to the max!! :clap:

Well done to Patrick Camblin and everyone else who organised, took part and filmed/photographed this event. I think a lot of other sports can take a page out of their book. Well done! I can't wait for next year :laugh:
