ERES Cup Stacking Tournament 2010

Background:

Sport Stacking (also known as cup stacking or speed stacking) is an individual and team sport that involves stacking specialized plastic cups made and designed by the WSSA in specific sequences in as little time as possible. The sport began as an activity at a southern California boys and girls club and received national attention in 1990 on The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson. The sport was invented by Wayne Godinet, who introduced the first formations and dubbed the sport, "Karango Cup Stack". Shortly thereafter Godinet formed a group called Cupstack. Physical education teacher Bob Fox later developed the activity into a true sport by formalizing the rules and establishing a governing body, the World Sport Stacking Association (WSSA). He also founded a company named Speed Stacks, and along with his partner Larry Goers, created a line of proprietary Sport Stacking products including the patented timing system know as the StackMat which is also used in speedcubing.

Participants of sport stacking stack cups in pre-determined sequences, competing against the clock or another player. Sequences are usually pyramids of three, six, or ten cups. Proponents of the sport say participants learn cooperation, ambidexterity and hand-eye coordination.

The current world records stand at:

  • Cycle Champion: Luke Myers, 14, time 5.55 sec
  • 3-6-3 Champion: Steven Purugganan, 11, time 2.15 sec
  • 3-3-3 Champion: Steven Purugganan, 11, time 1.80 sec [10][11]
