If we had to describe this tournament in
one word it would be WOW! This years
California
"Open" was one of the most
exciting ever! Several first time competitors made some major
upsets! The great part of the
"Open" is that you never know when some new raw talent is
going to step up to the table and upset
the veteran competitors!
The tournament started at high noon.
Shed World provided us with an excellent stage in the
Shade! The competition started off
furious and stayed intense all day as competitors from several states
battled to take home the Title and one of the prestigious trophies!
