IMPORTANT: Competitors ... please read the following technique points at the bottom of this post carefully. All judges are actively seeking out people to punish with time penalties!! each time penalty will be worth 30seconds!!! that is a huge penalty considering each event only lasts between 20-25mins!!! 2 penalties will add 1minute to your overall time!! So take the technique points seriously and make sure you fully understand them. Please feel free to post any questions!! Thanks Craig Stevens Event Director .... ;) ......................................................................................
