  • Target Altitudes are 2025′ or 20250’ AGL.
  • The winner is the closest, over or under. Prizes for First, Second, and third place per target.
  • You must use a different spud each time. Pick up your spud from the provided supply.

  • Collect your spud at the event. Write your name and the current time on the spud with a sharpie.
  • Prep your rocket. Watch thrust to weight ratios closely. Mark Spudnik Attempt # on your flight card.
  • Fly the spud. Bring it back to the Directors of Spudlofting (TBA).
