Figures for Unknown 1

The figures for the construction of the 1st Unknown (Free Unknown) were selected by the 10 teams representing NACs at the Championships - competitors that are registered as Independent do not propose figures. The teams draw lots to decide the order in which figures are submitted, since no duplication of elements of figures that have the same catalogue numbers is allowed - so those who submit their figures first get the best choice of components to use to build their figures. The final 10 figures proposed are shown below (this is not the official drawing from the organisers - just our notes from the selection briefing, so we need to check that its the same as those documented by the organisers, but I hope it is accurate!).

Each team can design a sequence using these 10 figures plus between 1 and 4 linking figures of their own choice. The teams must submit their proposals to the Organisers by 1000 tomorrow morning. Sequences are then checked for legality and then all of the proposals are published so that each competitor can decide which of the proposed sequences he or she will fly. So its going to be a busy night while people design their sequences in time for the deadline tomorrow. A lot of high K (difficulty) figures have been proposed, so its going to be a challenging sequence and it needs a lot of skill to design a sequence that is flyable. It will be interesting to compare the different proposals tomorrow.
