ITSF - Tornado Drops Out, Fireball Jumps In - 5barwarrior - 12-Sep-2011
ITSF has announced that Tornado has withdrawn from the federation leaving an open spot which was filled by Fireball.
Tornado is also announcing an international tour. Whether that means Canada or Europe is still to be seen.
What does this mean for OFA? Nothing really. The fact of the mater is that Tornado is still the best table is the table most of our players will play on when they travel to tournaments.

I'm really not surprised... All this means is that less American players will travel overseas to compete. Well, that, and that more and more table manufacturers are finding that ITSF status is meaningless.

yeah, there was another German table manufacturer that bailed on ITSF.
i don't think that many players traveled to Europe for Foosball and the ones who did probably still will.
as the Beatles would say: "life goes on"
