Water dancing, diving would be sort of aquatic acrobatics I suppose. I wanted to come up with something less obvious than gleemen's tumbling.

 

Atha'an Miere would be strong in this event.

 

Yeah that's a great one!

 

Mast Walking! Male channelers would excel at this :P

 

Also another great one! I'd enjoy watching that a little too much *giggles*

Well, obviously all the performers from Luca's show would excel in the acrobatics *grins*

Yes! And Elayne would probably also join in with the tight rope walking.

Yes definetly!

Agreed! Wonderful suggestions, everyone!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 4 is Mounted!!!

 

Any sport that includes horses.

Well, horseracing of course! Olver's got that one. Also, a showing of horses, where Mat and his da will be the judges.

Horse marathons. Bela will win!

 

The Saldaeans do that fancy horse-riding stuff. Cassock style, I think. Something like that would be more WoT-like than something fancy like dressage, to me.

I think betting on a horse race. Matt and his Da were supposed to be experts at judging horse flesh. Also, some type of team relay... where each length of the race would have a different rider and horse. We know Siuan would not do well. I still love her though.

Very good events! I think jousting would also be included.

Raken (at least I think that's how it's spelled) competitions. Really don't know what they would do but like flying obstacle courses, fights, races.

How about Raken Quidditch? lol

I think there should be three types of events. Firstly, a long distance ride along ordinary roads and tracks, intended to test endurance and the rider's ability to manage the horse's stamina. Secondly, a cross country course about 10 minutes in length, with obstacles. Finally, a day of dressage / Saldaean horse monkeying.

Horse monkeying describes it perfectly ... lol

And I agree with your suggestion *nods*

Will there be further categories or may I comment on previous categories I missed....sorry, I'm always late to any party.

I apologize for my absence for this day of discussion and not being able to put up a new one... My internet hasn't worked all day.

 

Colin, you may join in whenever you like. If you wish to put forward your ideas for the other categories, you may.

 

Very good suggestions from everyone! I have no idea what "horse monkeying" is but it made me giggle!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Day 5 is Water sports!!!

 

Any sport involving water.

 

 

I will go ahead and put forward swimming! I think Siuan Sanche would do very well here.

How about Raken Quidditch? lol

 

YES!!! That is just pure epicness Mother.

we may also want to consider the sling for ranged weapons...perhaps even darts as they are both part of the Bel Tine celebration...Also, don't forget weight lifting and weight throwing....also a part of Bel Tine

For watersports we should definitely have all kinds of sailing events. The Seafolk would probably win that (and the diving events!), but the Tearans might give them a close run for their money.

Also, One Power-surfing *noddity*

 

Seriously, can't you picture all the Aes Sedai in their pretty dresses surfing down the river on boards of Air? XD

I can picture their Warders being none-too-happy about it

Rofl! Beats mattress surfing hands down *giggles helplessly*

Lest we forget rowing.....Bayle Doman's crew would fare well

That would be soooo much fun!

Perhaps a fishing competition as well... Moiraine can pull fish out of the river better than Perrin and Loial lol

I think Suian would take the Gold on that one.
