I remember Crokinole from the 80's. Marde with on court stabbings, corruption and back alley betting. My younger brother was actually conceived in the bathroom of an underground Crokinole match. Cocaine flowed like Gatorade. Millions were made but it set the sport back decades. Glad to see the professionalism.
I used to play this game at the elite level. The girls, the drugs, the frequently changing hotel rooms, it all got a bit too much. I began to hate myself and what I had become. I decided to give it all up and instead follow Buddhism, I gave away my millions. People said that I’m mad and crazy, but I’ve never looked back and I have no regrets.
@@EternalDeath14 Dick, thank you for sharing your story of bravery. Not many elite players made it out the other end. I just wish more players had your same courage...I have seen too many crying mothers and been to too many funerals.....Being a Crokinolaholic is the monkey that will forever be on my back. Stay strong brother!
I think I’m the only one who actually searched for this video. Been a big crokinole guy since TH-cam recommended it to me last year. It’s simultaneously calming and exhilarating. Definitely gonna get my carpenter friend to make me a board at some point soon.
That was a very refreshing match! Carr plays more uniquely than any of Slater's previous championship competitors and it was probably more fun for him.
Excellent final, great showing by Darren first final and up against Justin can be very proud of his performance. Congrats to Justin. Also thank you Crokinole Centre for bringing a Crokinile fan from Southport, England to the front row of the World Finals, much appreciated.
this tournament was so goddamned exiting i had to have surgery immediately after the finals. ive been through 8 presidents but nothing as memorable as this game.
just got a crokinole board for xmas and sometimes a player ends up with an extra disc like happened at the end here. we just assume the player picked it out of the gutter without thinking. Carr does it as 24:40
Americans are about to go ham with paper football and tabletop coin basketball at the bar later tonight. We also have Sorry, Don't wake Daddy, and the most competitive Chinese Checkers and Monopoly.
I can tell by your comment that you know the ins and outs of Crokinole. In 1982 I lost the Championship round to a buttcheek disqualification. I prepared for that match the same way I prepared for them all. I got high as a kite on cocaine and LSD and ate 7 bean and cheese burritos from Taco Bell. What I thought would be a quiet, unnoticeable fart lead me to lift my left buttcheek during what should have been my game-winning flick. Of course, the ref disqualified me. Now, every time I hear a fart I cry a little......and think about what could have been.
they get two points for winning a game and one point each if they tie. First to five wins a set and the match is played best of 3 sets.(sort of like Tennis) Scoring is based on the disks left on the table after all shots are taken. The ring inside the pegs is 15 point the middle ring is 10 points and the outer most ring is 5 points sinking in the hole is 20 points immediately. Each player gets 8 disks every game and must always strike an opponents disk if it is present on the field otherwise the shot does not count. If no opposing disk is present they get what is called a free shot.
kyle Dove 6 months late but, this is crokinole, a dexterity game from the 1800s. Rules are you put your puck on the outside circle and flick it onto the board, your shot must land in the middle circle if your enemy has no pucks on the board, your shot must hit your enemy’s puck if they have one on the board. The outer circle is 5 points, the middle circle 10, and the center circle 15. If a puck lands in the hole in the middle it is 20 points and the puck is removed from the game. Once both players are out of shots, you score.
Thank you for accidentally tuning in to the crokinole world championship finals!
Liam lol No bother😂
"accidentally"?
This was very intentional for me 😂
You people definitely are not moist, or express any critical thinking. U might as well be a penguin
this was quite the rabbit hole to explore.
I'm preparing for the 2020 world championships and I only discovered this sport on TH-cam 8 minutes ago
too bad a brand new board costs more than a new video game console.
Sorry Locie, Covid 19 is already the 2020 champion.
Yeetles Law you buffoon, I found multiple high quality crokinole boards online that meet NCA standards for $50-$100. You sit on a throne of lies.
Brad McNamara I would like to see them
I'm in that exact same zone right now.

Nice story
Is this true or is this some sort of joke?

Can someone call the dealership? Because this car doesn't have brakes!
I came from Penguinz0 video, happy to see that Slater is still rocking

I was brought here by one of the best Crokinole shoutcasters
penguinz0, I know he's a busy guy, but thank you for nominating him.
Imagine if this became anime.
Good idea
I hope Charlie commentates the 2020 world championship

Thanks! Your comment is much appreciated.
This seriously needs to be on ESPN 8 the ocho!!!!
this tournament was so goddamned exiting i had to have surgery immediately after the finals. ive been through 8 presidents but nothing as memorable as this game.
this came in my suggestions after watching Charlie’s video
8:30 "Never Concede Too Early"
Jesus sent me here to witness one of his masterpieces, Justin Slater
Gayyyy
Charlie sent us here
I wish crokinole championship got the same treatment on youtube as the classic tetris one, penguinz0 is definitely helping
Well.... Thanks TH-cam for this erm...... Recommendation..... Crockinole..... OK.... Never heard of it till now..... My life is now complete
i like to watch snooker some times or dart, now discovered a new sports, thx a lot for this championship 🤗 crokinole👍
Thank you Penguin
Before TH-cam recommended this to me I didn’t even know this game existed
Thanks for the great coverage!
Thanks Charlie
This is hilarious. I’m from the region in Ontario Canada this game originated from. Lol.
After this match I got to Go and make sure I catch The Marble Madness relays. I promised the family we wouldn't miss it this year.
Half the fans missed the final, their car broke down on the way.
Thanks for the uploads
Congrats as always Justin (just stop winning for once, can't you? :D). Hopefully we'll see more of Carr in the future as well
Thanks ilyx
these men are just chatting like straight up bros with GODDAMN WORLDS ON THE LINE
That was incredibly close, grats to Slater. Those 20 battles!
Just another exciting day in the thunder Crokinole dome!
Surprisingly riveting...
you should link to the website in the description so we could find info on future tournaments.
Moist Jesus brought me here
Congrats to Justin!
Was hoping to see Carr win, I'm sure he'll be back next year though ;)
Congratulations Slater! World record! Awesome!
Nice job Slater
21:57 the forbidden technique by Carr!
What technique is that
@@c0lgs777 I know you gotta keep one cheek on the chair, so maybe moving that far out is a little controversial...?
This is arctuakky wildly awesome.
When will society start recognising crocodile slayers for the legendary tacticians they are.
just got a crokinole board for xmas and sometimes a player ends up with an extra disc like happened at the end here. we just assume the player picked it out of the gutter without thinking. Carr does it as 24:40
Same
That crowd is completely on edge. How riveting this must be live.
Absolute limbs in the crowd!!
The only game close to this intensity was game 7 of the 2016 nba finals
I've no idea how I got here nor have I heard of this game, but I need one! I'll also need 2 jobs to afford it lol
Boom. Never in doubt!
I am a little worried there were no security guards at this event...
It's okay, they're mostly Canadian
TH-cam RECOMMENDS
And the crowd goes wild!!! No hang on they are still asleep
I'm so happy for Justin!
Anybody knows what power they are using?
Anyone know what brand and model of table they are playing on?
next olympic sport
THE ALGORITHM
Very fun game
Is this on ESPN8 "The ocho"?
You would know, wouldn't you?
Americans are about to go ham with paper football and tabletop coin basketball at the bar later tonight. We also have Sorry, Don't wake Daddy, and the most competitive Chinese Checkers and Monopoly.
Charlie will be the saviour of the crokinole community
Didn't know this kind of sport existed till I saw a video on it by Critikal, lol.
Crokinole. Where the 2019 championship was recorded in 2015.
I knew that after Pied Piper, Jared would find a new home where he could thrive!
What type of wax is that they use around the rim?
crokinole slouch position is the key to world level crokinole. watch and learn people.
Have a question. What is the app you use for the scoreboard? Thank you.
It's currently made with a very messy custom powerpoint macro. Something that would be nice to improve in the future.
ESPN 8: THE OCHO
One day hopefully!
Who else doesn’t understand how this works but is still watching it anyway?
god damn they croked those noles
Crokinole center rules
Hard to hear the commentary over the wild fans that were lucky enough to get front row seats
These two both left eye dominant (?)
Casa jogo nesse mundo
Anyone please refer any online/offline site/shop to buy in India Hyderabad... Bangalore Chennai
Searching a lot for this
And the crowd goes wild!! Such energy!
Where can I get this? I wonder where you can buy one... ;/
I’m sure they’re available mailorder.
Sadly a good board is quite expensive
Jesus christ himself sent me here
Not really understanding how Slater won when Carr took the 1rst game and it says first to 5. Was it actually best of 3?
Yes, each game is won by 5 points. The match is best of three games
where can i buy this game
Sadly it is very expensive
J P Actually i’m living Taiwan ,but i never seem this game before.
The invincible Justin "fuck you later" Slater crockinole champion.
Let's just say everyone looks like they should be there...
Crokinole sent me here
4:45 that look😂
This is more entertaining than watching Nickelback perform
Finally, a spectator sport as exciting as darts.
And more gripping than snooker
Where is the trophy??
The ref keeping a keen eye on butt cheeks for a butt cheek disqualification

Now, every time I hear a fart I cry a little......and think about what could have been.
Is Slater single or nah? Asking for a friend...
If 24 people from a town of 600 get together and play krokinole, is it really a world championship?
Please i m frensh . I dont understand the rules in the scoreboard ? Why playing with 8 puck? And good game at slater
they get two points for winning a game and one point each if they tie. First to five wins a set and the match is played best of 3 sets.(sort of like Tennis) Scoring is based on the disks left on the table after all shots are taken.

I know why you’re here.
Didn't know Zach Woods played this?
That ref has the shakes pretty bad.
I don't even know this game
Don't worry, I didn't look for this either.
LET'S FXCKING GO!!!
crowds pretty dry for a world championship
ilyx
Thanks TH-cam wtf is this if anyone can explain?

Robert Predmore lol I actually found out because I work at a board game store
Thanks tho
Does he ever close his mouth?
