Title: Exeter DWS 2015
Post by: Oldmanmatt on August 26, 2015, 07:07:53 pm: It's looking like a good turnout again. Anyone heading down?

We'll probably be camped out there all weekend, so say hello and...

Sorry about the kids.

I do try.

Oh, and nice to see the council are behind the whole thing in a positive way and not covering their arses in true nitpicking 'elf n' safety fashion...

Post by: T_B on August 27, 2015, 09:13:45 am: Enjoyed it last year, but though the format was a bit wack with 3 of the 4 qualifying problems being v easy. Looks like they've changed it?

Post by: Oldmanmatt on August 28, 2015, 06:15:40 pm: That green No. 1 is way too easy for the boys; so this is a qualifier of two problems...
Not sure of that logic.

No tops on 3 yet.

Post by: Duma on August 30, 2015, 11:18:52 pm: Ha! Nah, got too little stamina/recovery, esp when they shortened the timings after the rain delay. Had great couple of days though.

Title: Exeter DWS 2015
Post by: Oldmanmatt on August 31, 2015, 10:10:55 am: The final was in two rounds.

The first was a knockout, where the six finalists were timed over the same problem.

The fastest three then went again on a modified version of the same problem with a final dyno to ring a bell (no final hold, just water).

Different and actually damn good watching.

More Gladiators/Ninja Warrior than a serious comp, but brilliant to watch and it seems those who competed enjoyed it greatly.
