The general qualifying session is a 25-minute jam session.Eight people from each class will win.
I recommend turning the lift so that the participants are not too hard, but everyone wants to hike up because it is cold.
Even with that alone, you can feel the spirit of the participants.Is this item a Chanel type with a high box or flat down box, large and small 2way kickers, and a curve box back to back?3 sections.

A fan class was held after the general qualifying session.
This class was held with the aim of having people who have no experience in the tournament, about once or twice, and people from kids / OVER1 enjoy the tournament.
Although it was a jam session without the final, the participants had a friendly atmosphere and it was a peaceful session from beginning to end.
