• In 2024 we used 2 platforms both Saturday and Sunday. This allowed us to complete the competition by 3:00 pm each day. This strategy allowed our athletes the proper time in between each attempt that's necessary for maximum results. In 2025, we'll again use of 2-3 platforms daily to ensure all athletes will be able to start and complete the event in a reseasonable time frame!
