Our first day in San Jose! About three quarters of the team was here. We all ate the breakfast provided by the hotel - which was much better than anticipated. We ate a beautiful breakfast every morning we were at tournament together, as a team. The team took it upon themselves to spend time in the hotel fitness facility to build conditioning. That's what I'm talking about. All youth should be as such.
The weather in San Jose seemed to be permanently dialed to 'perfect' as illustrated as the backdrop of the bird sculpture set in front of the San Jose Convention Center. Without urgency, we understood we would be getting our bearings and spending time together as a team, warming to the rhythm of the tournament, and getting a bit of training in. As we had the presence of only a partial team, the mood was relaxed and easy for today, but with slowly mounting excitement. Osezwa's ripstick made a fleeting cameo appearance before it was confiscated by Master Frantz. Seriously? You're going to break your bones on a ripstick BEFORE you compete?
