Thanks Kreese, Mut, Graham and everyone! Yeah, when your cardio sucks, everything just goes to hell. Hey Graham, definitely give me a holler if you get to the Bay Area, I'm always happy to meet fellow EFers.
Unfortunately, we never didn't manage to connect with Dr. Fish at the tourney, but we were able to meet and spend time with Fukien White Crane Sifu and author Lorne Bernard and his students, one of whom (Etienne) competed in the Lei Tai and took the gold for his division. Lorne and his people were awesome! They're French-Canadians from Montreal and we all had a GREAT time after the fights, going out for dinner & drinks, then staying up til 3:30 in the morning talking Kung Fu.
Yeah, Imma be ready for the next Lei Tai event. Unfortunately I've searched the interweb and can't seem to find anything like a Western Regional tourney of this type. There was a Northern Regional and a Maryland Regional, but so far that's all I've found. I'll give the USKSF a call & see if they can provide me with more info...
