Guys sorry for the date clash . THis is the only date we can throw this particular tournament because it is being held at the SF Bike Expo which occurs this week .
Dear LA,
SF November
Vegas December
LA January
Fresno February
Sacramento March
Santa Cruz April
Am I smoking some good shit here or what?
We're working out new dates, I'd prefer mid October, but who knows, we have a lot of work to do. We'll keep you guys posted when we get stuffs figured out. Stay tuned...
FUCK YOU, MACHINE.....
but yeah, we're figuring out new dates. it's all good.
If you move the tournament to Oct. ABQ would be able to make the 19th and 20th. We're planning on going to Austin's tournament the week after and some of us are hiking Havasupai falls the week before.
i'd like to visit vegas in december or january, some other canucks may agree... just sayin'
It is looking like we might relocate it to December, that seems to be to consence.
What? You guys want some sort of flyer or somethin?
If you would be so kind...

Make sure you link your 2 posts about this tournie . You have almost 500 reads on the other post so there is a lot of interest in this.
Good chance I'll be able to make this. Anyone need a thrid?
Also, are the dates pretty set in stone? I'd like to get my plane tickets as early as possible since it's pricey flying out of Alaska.
Here is a photo of the Court 2 at last year's tourney.
Court 1. Super slick on the south side of the court!
Sounds like a PARTY. Looking for a team. Sacto/Cap. coming?
hmmm.

Vegas, is there places to crash? If I were looking into a hotel room, where is the tourney located?
Tickets bought. Can't wait!

when the tournaments are playing in super slik courts floor,
normaly the players change the tires?
The problem with the south court is the slickness is generally in 1 spot and not the whole court. We just let some of the air out of our tires and had better traction.
Take a floor sander to that yit...
Seriously, I will put in some manual labor if we can do this
The small porson he is discribing is slick for two reasons the water collects after rain fall and the skaters are constantly waxing the ledge.
Both courts are fairly slick, the south court more so than the other. Nonetheless, with the exception of that one slick spot on the south court, they are extremely quick to get used to playing on as those of you know who played last year, shouldn't take more than a game or two to get acquainted with the courts and feel comfortable slaying on them. The plus side, you'll never burn through a tire...
Register here please.

Im looking for a team also if someone needs someone to split/pitch on a hotel room I'm open to that option.
tits. I am going to Israel on the 10th of December and just can't swing it with everyone. Sorry ladies and gentlemen!
MAN DUDE BRO ready to roll to Vegas baby!!!
Only 5 teams?!?!
Man Dude , it would be nice to see people sighn up early to help the organizers figure out timelines for the tournament and how much adult beverages to buy.
Don't know about the rest of y'all , but MAN DUDE BRO plans to be there in the AM on that Friday for pick up if we have enough people. If not, nothing better then just shooting around and getting to know a new court.
Leaving Santa Fe Thursday night.
Should be at the courts by noon.
Still looking for a team.
Bringing a selection of SF produced beers to share.
San Diego, might field a team, and definitely would need a place to stay.
updated flyer, WITH sponsors.
Our third is coming in at 10 am Saturday. Anyway we can be in the later group?
Can't get threw to housing so if you can put " Man Dude Bro" up Friday & Saturday that would be awwwwsome.

Yes, thank you, Dave and all of Las Vegas Polo! I thought y'all threw a good tournament and I appreciate the hospitality! Also, thank you to everyone who loaned me equipment! I couldn't have played without your kind help. And never fly United Airlines! Ha!
Great Time Gabe & Dave

Yo, looks like your tourney is the same weekend as the Ball Whackers Ball. So no SF or LA A-teams if you do this the same weekend. What about the 17-18th of Nov? ABQ would be down either weekend.
