I tied for 6th out of 24, due to body weight, I actually came in 10th. Should have done better, and could have done better, but there will be a next time.

All and all, for a smaller contest, it ran pretty well. And apparently much much better than last years event. There was a little judging inconsistency on the forward hold that was remedied.

I will get the actual results up as soon as possible, and get up more photos. These few were taken with my digital camera.
