Title: Prague or Amsterdam
Post by: Damiano on Oct 06, 2010, 08:59: PM
I'm thinking of saving to go to one of these meets next year or the year after(2011/12)
i'd like to know what are the differences, which you'd recommend and how much accommodation will cost for the meet? As im coming from New Zealand this is a big trip. My favourite freestyler is Azun so i wonder if he would come to either of these? And how come no Russians came to these meets since their freestyle is becoming very renowned

I think you should go to Prague then.
I dont think azun is going to amsterdam. but i dont know.
Prague is closer too, so i think it will cost less to go there.

Way more likely that Azun will go to Prague then to Amsterdam. FYI, there were 4 Russians in Prague - ARS, MP, Dimetto and Lex.

Can't say anything about Prague but according to Dan, Prague obviously had quite a competitive air about it but he also said that there were groups (e.g the Russians stayed within themselves, as did the Italians, etc...)

Amsterdam was absolutely crazy, the favouraite days of my life that I can remember, everyone was really nice but there were some people who didn't really freestyle or do anything which was a bit sad because they'd made the trouble to go.

However, Azun and the Russian guys will be at Prague so if that's your main priority go there, but if Skora, Rocco, Azun, etc... decide to go to Amsterdam, I'd definitely go.

yea it would probably be in 2012 because my mum says im too young to go that distance next year lol
i would rather go to amsterdam it looked like a more relaxed and fun atmosphere
hopefully dantheman would convince azun and the russians to come :)

hahaha i dont wanna "convince" anyone to come really.. at this stage we all know about Ams meeting, if they wanna come they will.. but i doubt russians will as its far from russia..
Azun probably wont go, but he will probably go to prague...
i would reccomend going to Amsterdam 100% because youre coming from so far away, Amsterdam the atmosphere is friendlier, the meeting is longer, and theres no competitive emphasis, everyone is fsing for fun.. In Prague u dont get much time to just jam with people because theyre preparing for battles or whatever.. I absolutely love prague and would reccomend it to anyone, but for someone who isnt interested in competing and is travelling a long distance i reccomend amsterdam for sure!!
But go to both if possible! :D

I was thinking about going too...but the groups thing scared me...my level of fs isnt high enough yet so i'd be an outcast lmao
and just wondering are these 2 events around the same time?

yeahh i would go for amsterdam, cuz there you will get your lifetime experience with awesome people
prague is more like a hardcore meet and people seems so serious there, if you're a beginner or intermedia i would not recommend it + you have to drop out of school for some days

but i havent been to any of the meets, but after what ive seen

there are no outcasts at any freestyle meetings.. nobody will make you feel bad or anything, freestyle community is great in that way! people are really friendly.. dont let that worry you.. even if u dont wanna freestyle nobody will mind.. definetly come to one.. amsterdam is probably better for u

I was in Amsterdam this year and I will DEFINATELY recomend it. The atmosphere was amazing and we were all like a "big family". Unfortunately I had to leave after only 3 days, but I will for sure be there all week next time.

if i travel to an international freestyle meet i go to the meet with the best freestylers and imo prague had a much higher level than amsterdam. i mean who was missing of the big names? not really many.

Yeah, bigger names have gone to Prague but I think, as Amsterdam has become really popular now, a few of the better people may come as well.
From what I've heard, Prague had an edgy, competitive feel about it and from what I know, Amsterdam was the complete opposite and really relaxed. I know a lot of people prefer the Prague feel but Amsterdam was amazing.
I guess it comes down to your personal preferences: Better freestylers or better (?) atmosphere.

Post by: Miran Pirner on Dec 08, 2010, 09:07: AM
Well, first and foremost, Prague is a competition, then a meeting, not the other way around, so you can't really put these two in the same "basket".

In the end, it's all about what your preferences and what you're looking for, mine is Prague...

what I was thinking is that if i had to spent so much to go to amsterdam  (from asia) just for a meet, i don't think it's actually worth it.. I was just wondering if you guys just freestyle whole day long and didn't go to any sightseeing?

On my part it is difficult to part with $3000-4000 just for a meet - i understand it's a great experience but you guys need to understand where we are coming from, i reckon you guys would agree, haha. Of course those that are within europe have no issues since it cost only few hundred? (not sure)
Was just hoping that there will be some 'travelling' in the itinerary. lol  :17:
