I myself was honored to participate in the test in the role of sparring partner. I got to pair up with Hannu in step matches and a match. Then I also got to remember what it feels like to fight two against one, when Pauli and Hannu and I put each other in a tight spot. It was very nice to see how hard-level guys we have...

On October 24, 2015, Aino Kortelainen and Sofia Sarala took part in business series competitions. In the individual series, Aino got bronze and Sofa finished fourth. In the doubles series, the girls came fifth, missing fourth place by exactly one tenth. Aino and Sofia were clearly the youngest participants of the games, but they were clearly awake in the stands: according to the girls' analysis, there were almost as many different poom styles and performances as there were participants. In the same event, there were also the itf matches and the crushers, which were fun and interesting to watch. Boom sailing on Sunday…
