I always get a little stressed as arm operator, especially with Paul Copioli standing behind me screaming at me. This year Im wayyyy more relaxed than last year though. This is my second year arm operating, and its much better this time around. I think its due to the fact that im very confident with the robot this year, whereas last years robot was very difficult to control and a little flawed in design.

I usually try to let off some stress by listening to some very loud music before Elims (usually some Devil Driver, Amon Amarth, Slayer, etc). That'll usually get my juices flowing, then I just try to follow Paul's orders and do what Im supposed to... concentration is key.
