1: I now understand why they call it "Sandblast" (duh!) and 2: it's too bad she couldn't arrange for the disc to be rotated about 120 degrees CCW :-)
Oh, and in case anyone's wondering, she held on to the disc.
Day 1 was so much fun that I decided to attend day 2 as well....we've posted some of our favorite images from the tournament.
While they're mostly from games Tasha's team played, I can't resist creating images from other interesting happenings going on around me, so there are some miscellaneous ones mixed in.

NOTE: Below are images from day 2. Images from day 1 can be found here.

She did hang on to the disc; and landed in quite a spray of sand (image at the top of this page). |

Awesome D bid (too bad I was on the wrong side of it) |
Extra points if a hammer is caught by the opposite sex at the other end of the field. |

Beer point!! |
Beer point - "just because it's fun doesn't mean we won't be intense" |
|
Beer point - protect the beer! |
Beer point - does it shorten the stall count if you put your can on your head? |
|
Beer point - gives a new meaning to the term "getting hammered" |

Alas, Tasha's team didn't make it into the championship game, but she wanted to stick around and watch it ... some photos below.

I wonder if I'm in this photographer's image too :-) |

Dang! I cut his feet off. And he has his eyes closed. But I like the height.

I liked this sequence because of the sandblast at the end... |
...

Yeah, they're in there somewhere - I can see their feet sticking out.

And finally, one personal benefit of the tournament's location: it was an attractive place to be for the rest of the family. Tasha's little sister and cousin stopped by to watch, swim and play.
|
Inspired by all the action and sand, my nephew kept wanting to try his hand at layouts.... |
..."I got it!" - I think he's looking for a team in the 2020 Sandblast :-) |

Tasha's little sister showing good two-handed form - she might be signing up for Sandblast 2015. |
