Rocky Mountain Spring 2019

[cubeshepherd]

As you may have already seen @weatherman223 post in the "Cubing in Colorado" thread, the "Rocky Mountain Spring 2019" is now official and on the WCA website: https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/competitions/RockyMountainSpring2019

I am very happy to still be able to host this competition (despite the few set backs on my end) but never the less I look forward to seeing any and all that can come. Also, huge thanks to AJ Blair (the delegate) for all is help and time with getting this competition official, and for being willing to delegate the competition, because with out him this competition would not be happening.

Please feel free to post here, if you are going to the competition (or even if you are not), and if you are going what event(s) you are doing and what you hope to average in those events.

Once I have a few small things finished up I will be sure to post them here as well as on the competition website, so stay tuned for more info.

Registration opens in 11 hours from now!! If anyone is up until midnight for the New Years ball drop then you can register for your first competition of the new year. : )

Additionally, The T-shirt design for the competition should be up in a week or two and at that time I will post the info on the competition website as well as here. Hype?

Why no 4x4 or 2x2?

Why no 4x4 or 2x2?

We haven’t had a competition in Colorado dedicated to side events, so that’s why there is only one NxN.

I wish I could but it is too far away sadly.

When I register I'll be doing 3x3, blind, skewb, and possibly squan if I can purchase one and figure out how to make cutoff before the competition.

Update: Registration has been completely filled up to the 90 competitor limit and I will now create a waiting list for anyone that would like to possibly attend should one of the registered ones drop out. WOW that filled up really fast.

Thank you all very much that are coming and for filling up the competition very quickly. I look forward to seeing you all in March and I will be posting some additional information here in the forums as well as the website soon.

Good luck to everyone going! Get a 4bld success for all of us Tristan!

Edit: Just realized @CarterK signed up, basically a competition sweep for him at that rate, haha. Get some NARs for us!

Thanks @weatherman223. I will try pretty hard for a 4x4 BLD single, although at the moment I need to find a different way of doing the wings other then r2 which I was able to do in the past. : ) so once I figure that I will will start to practice more.

I know right lol. Hopefully there will be an event or two that someone can challenge Carter in haha.

Well since the comp is now over I just wanted to say thanks to all that came and I hope you all had a great time...despite being slightly behind on time. Also, congrats @CarterK on not disappointing anyone, in doing what we all expected from you...sweeping the comp that is and nice job on your 3x3 BLD single, well done.

Sorry all in Colorado, that I did not get a 4x4 BLD single. Was so close to getting one, had it not been for a twisted corner Will try again in May at Jordan's 2 day comp, and hopefully I can get one there.

Again, I am glad that most all were able to make the competition and I look forward to hosting more soon.
