First, sign up for all events that only require riding forward and gradual
turns. This means the track. Then, if you are interested in learning things like
one foot riding, sign up and see if you can learn it. Not showing up for events
you’ve registered in shouldn’t cause any trouble. Most of the participants at
these NUCs are playing for fun, just to see how well they can do. Though in your
age group there are others who practice a lot and are real serious, you should
mostly compare yourself to the riders who have put in a similar amount of
practice as yourself.
I recommend for new attendees to sign up for everything that’s not an artistic
event. Only sign up for artistic if you plan on putting an act together. Try the
MUni stuff, try everything else.

There should be lotsa people looking to share rooms. I recommend an email to Al
Tepper, who may or may not be able to keep track of people seeking rooms, and
occasional posting to the newsgroup to look for roommates.
When you tell your parents “Don’t worry, nothing’s going to happen” you’re
PROBABLY right.
But PROBABLY isn’t good enough for your parents when it comes to your safety.
