I'll be in Tuesday and flying out Monday. Double layovers make for verrrry long flights, but it'll be worth it. See you there!

I almost forgot something else.  Assuming we don't get any others from the US (I know IronGoober is still on the fence), we'll still have enough for the team score.  It's broken up by country, and the team needs at least three members.  There's no additional slinging.  It's just the member's scores added up and another trophy is handed out to the top countries.  We were short last year because it was only Channing and me.

It's all good.  There's no choice.
If Pep's doing it, everyone who qualifies is in.  So with three American slingers, we'll be in!  It's just another score tally of the rounds we do, so as mentioned nothing extra on our part at all.


And don't worry about performance.  There have been excellent slingers end up not doing so well, and some less-than-great slingers put up some nice rounds.  It's all about what you do when you step up to the line.  And being in the OSC is great.  Hands down the best training tool for the World Cup for those of us who aren't around other slingers.

Ha!  That's pretty cool.

Hey very cool! Yeah free seed for champs in local competitions makes sense. Maybe we gotta get him to do that for down south next year

He might actually.  Something to mention to him at the World Cup this year.

Good call.  I saw those cards but that meaning didn't even register for me. 


In other news we got another member for the USA Sling Team!  I got a text from Channing tonight.  There's a guy named Jonathan from Alabama who was at the Down South Tournament both years.  He's coming to Ibiza!  The US team is now at 4 members!


Anyone else here know yet if they're going to make it.  I've got a couple guys in mind who reside in the UK... 

This is a good check.  If you're going to the Slinging World Cup, but didn't get the hotel post from Pep, you're not in his World Cup group.  The flyer on the first post of this topic has his Whatsapp number.  Message him and ask him to add you.  That's how he does all his communication.  Even during the World Cup when we're all there, he'll send notifications about meet-up times, where the bus is picking us up, etc.
