X-traction Point trailer

There will be a special spy tournament at the conference. It will be preceded with a series of mini-workshops on lockpicking, alarm systems awareness and marksmanship skills.

After the whole day of trainings, we will select a couple of teams, which will have to face a real installation. They will have to infiltrate a bunker, pass the guards, obtain hidden documents and rescue a prisoner. This will all happen live at the evening of the first day of the conference.
