Eli and Lucas competed in a Speed Stacking tournament at the end of January against around 100 other elementary kids in their district. They signed up only a few weeks beforehand so they practiced almost every day and were both a little nervous about the event. They each signed up for the 3-6-3 event as well as the full cycle competition. The kids lined up at tables for each event and each had 3 chances to get their best time. It was a LONG event followed by a LONG awards ceremony. They both did a great job and it was fun to watch!

 |
| This was Lucas' first competition. He was so nervous! It was a little overwhelming to have so many kids and parents watching that he felt a little distracted. |
 |
| Look at Eli go.... |
 |
| Go Eli Go! |
 |
| This is part of the full cycle. After all the cups are stacked they break them down into one stack. It's awesome! |
 |
| Look at the concentration on that face! |
