Yea that was pretty awesome.

That save was insane, best save I've ever seen, makes me wish I stuck around for Sunday to see it in person.  

This is the actual Final match with video taken directly from the overhead camera as opposed to a second camera:

Da je bilo puno zabave, volim PAPA, najbolji turnir u postojanje, ja gledati prema naprijed da ga svake godine. Gdje drugdje možete provesti četiri dana igrati fliper za 16 sata na dan s više od 400 pinova!

That actually got posted to kotaku yesterday as well, which got a bunch of non-pinball people to check it out.  The commentary was actually an interesting read-it gave me a few things to check out in the video, and a couple of ideas on how to play a little better.  There are some great saves/catches in there.  I suppose at that level you have to know what the high scoring opportunities are on just about every table.  

It kind of makes me wonder though-how would it go if the finals at the world championships were on a game that nobody had ever played before (e.g. and Avatar prototype this year)?  Would that be a better measure of pure pinball skill?
