Thanks for coming! I think everyone had a good time outside of the tournament as well. There was certainly a lot of intense competition though!

We are in the process of planning another Pump Pro event. It might just happen sooner then you expected! :-)

Yeah, the tournament seemed to be a big success! My son and I didn’t make it to Vegas, so we had to enjoy it via youtube.

Even just watching the videos and reading the posts on the forum, we could tell that all the effort that went into designing the tournament was well spent!
