TOKCC is a friendly challenge doesn’t mean the rules/regulations are relaxed. It’s friendly in that it is a safe place to encourage and practice learning on the part of the newbies, and critical self-reflection/analysis of execution for the more experienced. Challenging yourself to teeter the line between weight of bell, and fastest rpm you can manage within the rules, but always favouring quality over quantity.
