Spanish Championship 2013 at the Arnold Classic Europe 2013

[Luis]

The 10th Spanish Rubik's Cube Championship will be held in Madrid, from 11th to 13th October at the "Pabellón de Cristal" in the "Madrid Arena".
Integrated into the Arnold Classic Europe 2013 big, multi-sport event, this year our national championship is planned as an outstanding competition that you'll regret to miss.

We are keeping an event in facebook that you can join.

Any international cuber attending the competition will be not only welcome, but also will receive help in all that he/she could need. So please, feel free to post here asking for information or any kind of help. We will make every effort to assist you.

I don't think he's competing-- just showing up to check out the competition. I believe there's a 1,000 cube mosaic of him being made of him right now.

He needs to do an average of five... just so he can say "I'll be back" to the judge after each of his first four attempts.

if he's super confident in the first round, he could do it in his last solve too.

[RCTACameron]

Am I the only one who thought it would be a surprise challenge when I saw this?

He should actually learn to solve a cube and compete. We should try getting Will Smith to compete as well.

Yes, this cubing competition is an extra event to the Arnold Classic Europe, which is a fitness and bodybuilding gathering (or to some people, steroid-effects display catwalk) with a lot of related side events: http://arnoldclassiceurope.es
