The Vancouver Beyblade Summit is the ultimate event for Beyblade fans on the west coast!

Hosted by the World Beyblade Organization (http://worldbeyblade.org), they’ll be doing giveaways and demos of the latest series, METAL FIGHT BEYBLADE!

Come learn the nuances and strategies of the modern version of Japan’s ancient game of skill.

Whether you’re a hardcore Beyblade fanatic or just someone who wants to know how a spinning top game could possibly have any strategy involved, be sure to stop by.

We’d love to meet you!

Entry Fee: To enter the convention, you must pay their entrance fee. Please see their site for details. Because it is at a paid convention, there is no fee to enter this tournament, even if you don't have a Blader Passport.

I'm glad the event went well! Grin

The attendance numbers are odd though (in a good way!), maybe there was less to do at Anime Evolution, so finding VBS was easier? Hard to say.
I found the only event I really wanted to attend was the Beyblade Summit. There's a bit of events but since everything is going on at the same time it makes it difficult to attend various events. Plus, half the events weren't really interesting.

I showed some of my friends the videos I took during the tournament and they were also interested. I guess the sound of clashing metal is what made them so awe inspired. XD
Brad, I'm glad the very first Beyblade Summit went well!
It seems that, since the summits are all falling on days close to larger tourneys, maybe the Summits should be very casual events, not so serious. Just to get people into the game, and then hype them for big tourneys.


I can see it now

"WORLD BEYBLADE ORGANIZATION SUMMIT SERIES 2009"

Sorry if that was a bit of a derail.
Our summit was definitely very casual ... the tournament was unranked.

Yumigata, if you find anyone interested in a Vancouver BeyClub, be sure to get them down. Grin
I'm glad you found some new Beybladers in your area, Brad. Smile I can sympathize with you (being so far from other Beybladers). Before Evan moved out here, no one was interested. Unhappy
