Taking photos of the EFC trophies with Jan's beasty 70-300.
Packing LOTS of stickers before the event.
Setting up the parks.
Chilling in the hostel.
Sorry there aren't many pictures, it was a very busy day from when we actually started doing anything so not many photo opportunities arose. Anyway, after taking pictures of the trophies as you can see, and falling asleep, we woke up and had the fun task of packaging LOADS of stickers into bags for SWAT shop. Lots and lots of tiny stickers and each bag had to have one of each sticker. Needless to say we didn't finish the whole lot, and in the afternoon we went to SWAT shop and waited around for a bit for the Blackriver guys to arrive. A HUGE van pulled up with another huge trailer, inside filled with parks and other assorted goodies, but mainly a LOT of parks (including the FF14 park). Meeting the BRR guys was amazing, they were soo friendly, and when they realised I was 'the guy from the UK' Thomas went to the van and came back with a streetplaza dos, two berlinwoods, blackriver trucks in white, and a set of winkler wheels. A present for all the great work I do with unite! Thankyou again soo much to them for that, that was really awesome to say the least. We then drove 5 minutes to the event area, put together all the parks (which involved carrying them up a huge flight of steps), then finally relaxed a bit as the task was over. The most amazing pizza place is in the same building as the event, 4 euros for a massive fresh take away pizza that was soo nice, so me, Thomas, and Oli got pizza and played skate whilst waiting for it. For some reason getting pizza involved me and oli climbing up a ladder to a balcony rather than walking in the front door, haha XD After ALL that, some chill times in the evening eating pizza, meeting everyone (seriously, everyone I met, you're all awesome!), then staying in the hostel and staying up til about 4am talking and fingerboarding with Greg, Bruno, and Marvin. Great day!
Stay tuned for the recap you're probably all most excited for, the event itself. Part three will be tomorrow evening :)
