Elle's Winning Frost Park Techniques Revealed in Video

Elle's Frost Park Video


In addition to winning last week's Frost Park Chalk Off Contest on Friday, Elle also videotaped her whole experience before, during and after the contest.  Not only that, she has to take care of her son the entire time as well.  A great show of multitasking mental discipline.




Elle gives some insight as to how she pulled off a win on Friday as well.

She was loaded for bear against RR who had his own problems to contend with trying to hold off Lupin's return.

Elle was the only one who arrived before 12:00 aside from Lance so she could start right at noon.  She apparently practiced beforehand and came to Frost Park with a complete box of apparently new chalks.  In the video, she describes her game plan and executed a number of tasks before, during and after the Chalk Off event.

Great work Elle in turning around a video and putting it online in just over a day.

I can't seem to figure out how to embed video ... but there's a new Frost Park Friday video by Adam at www.youtube.com/adamthealien ... to the tune of Miss Mary Mack by Deborah Page.

You can't embed a video in the comments. But you can provide the direct link to the video here:

I see Adam has a new Feed Tacoma blog where he has placed the video as well.
