Tourney: UK Champs Manchester 17-18.04.2010

this is going to be awesome.

has anyone been to see the court?

is it roughly the size of the outdoor basketball/football courts most people play on? (the photo i've seen makes the court look massive, but it looks like a wide-angle lens so i wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't...)

We ahvn't been to play on it yet, but some of the guys have been to see it. It is bigger than a 5 a side court as far as i know, i think it is a standard size for roller/ice hockey

"roller hockey" rink dimensions are a minimum of 34x17 meters, an average of 40x20 and a maximum of 44x22 according to wikipedia

for the guys who were in leeds yesterday those courts were 46x34

Not too different then, should make for some fast games!

Its looking like Polonium may well be out as well :(

Surely if a couple of teams are a couple of people down then there's the opportunity for a throw-in type team or two.

Quick question about goals, i am currently building them this week and want to check with everyone, (we are using max's spec which is similar size to karlsruhe) if the back pipe is 180cm, with the front corner pieces it effectively makes the goal mouth more like 150cm is this correct or does the goal mouth want to be 180 therefore the back section needs to be longer? what are we saying for goal mouth size?

On the Karlsruhe goals, the inside width of the goal mouth was 180. I think everyone that played with them thought this was a good width. 150 seems way to narrow to me

Yeah, I agree with DT. 150 would be pretty narrow.

we're going with 180cm goal mouth opening... MAX's parts spec is wrong as it gives you a goal mouth opening of 150cm...hence the confusion....

MAX is an idiot, enough said

ah sweet cheers guys, watch this space!

MAX is an idiot, enough said

This

MAX is a 5:6 scale model, enough said

.

voidcore, did you see the calgary goals? Max's are a bit wobbly apparently, but these diagonal uprights and second piping across the back seem to work.

yeh i did thanks, its abit late for that design because we have just had to wait 2 weeks for the connector pieces to arrive from germany!, our goals will be 63mm HDPE the same as mallet heads so should be sturdy enough
