Guys, I know it has not been a perfect contest. I also know that a lot people were happy with it too. I can also understand people complaining at that time. You were right, you had the right to complain and I do believe your complains were taken into consideration and fixed too. I just do not unders...

Last point : I am afraid that the only added value to your post is to make a really bad feeling between all of us... Please respect the work from others... That is exactly what Jean-Sébastien should have done regarding my work and more his post didn't add value either. What he tried to do was to br...

Flavio Badenes

And adding to what Martijn has very well stated above. We had 2 and a half months to upgrade the event from a prime events to a main event. That proved to be too short. However..... The city has embraced the event for good, they were very happy with what they saw. This means a lot for next year's ev...

Flavio Badenes

Hmmmm, to be shure, were any sold in the Netherlands? Not that I know of. I used to sell them in my skate shop back in the 90's and nobody else carried them then or carries them now. The only skater using a Alva board like that one is me, I use it for park riding. It is a old school pig model. Very...

Flavio Badenes

I do worry. I think this really sucks.

I will provide him with another one. I do have a few in stock.

Let me know where I have to send it to.

Flavio Badenes

Unbelievable. Don please describe the board and we will keep an eye out for it. I do think we can find this asshole. @ the Dutch skaters: Dit kunnen we niet accepteren. Er zijn heel niet zo veel Pavels in Nederland. Zo dit is makelijke te vinden. Als julllie die klotezak zien. Pack de board van hem.

Flavio Badenes

I can only see ONE shuttle bus per day from the airport in Lyon to Grenoble. Is this correct?
Which one of the two airports in Lyon is it best to fly to??
Thank you.

Flavio Badenes

Thanks Guillaume & Sandrine
and
See you next year here in Amsterdam. (and in Grenoble in September)

No flat slalom

Flavio Badenes

Hi there, I apologize for the late post but after getting home at 23:45 last night after the contest and waking up at 6 AM this morning to go to my regular job for a series of meetings during which I had no access to a PC I finally find sometime to: First of all thank everybody that came to Amsterda...

Flavio Badenes

It is beautifull evening in Amsterdam, bright moon in the sky. Don and his crew were working hard until late to prepare the courses.

Many riders are camping.

We are ready to go

Flavio Badenes

There is a HA and a Dirk van der Broek ten minutes away from the contest site.

Chocomel rules

The weather is good. T-shirts on. Very light wind.

Oliver Otten is on the list and the others are out.

I will be at the location from around 5 PM on.

I wish you all a safe trip to Amsterdam

Flavio Badenes

We want to start at 10 AM Also, around 2 PM on Saturday, Dutch national television RTL will be at the contest, filming and possibly interviewing some of you. We will be on the news (broa...

The lastest weather report from Amsterdam: Saturday: A 20% chance of rain, wind force 3, average temperature: 22 C Sunday: A 30% chance of rain, wind force 3, average temperature 24 C This is good. and it is dry at this moment as well we could have been skating since the early hours in the morning.

Flavio Badenes

I see the Euros in Amsterdam as something like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMiRDICVq6s

but then on a skateboard.

Flavio Badenes

The plan B location: http://www.skateparkamsterdam.nl/ If it rains we will go to Everland Skatepark on north side of Amsterdam. We will have single course races, flat but decente. So no worries about the weather, we can race anyways. However I must add that the weather continues to improve !!!! I ha...

Flavio Badenes

Of course all the competitors are welcome like I have already mentioned.

But I want to send out a very special welcome to my friend
Jose Antonio Muñoz-Cuéllar

Jose you rock!!!

See you here

Born in the 50´s and PROUD OF IT!

Flavio Badenes

The weather is definitely improving from the last days.

We did not have rain today.

The wind is calming down as well!!
Would the contest had been today we would have raced all day long without any problems

Hopefully faster than 28km/h!

I didn´t take the "pushing factor" into the equation. ±28km/h is the minimum speed

No problem!

We are ready to go: The course will be set up on the competition day. Fresh made. All riders will have two practise runs and that is it. This way everybody will have the same chance. Donald will be setting up the courses early on Saturday morning. So you can expect the usual GOG style technical cour...

Hey Flavio, could you give us some infos about the giant spot, like the slope and the length ? Size M, L... XL ? :) Call it a M. Remember you can (you are not obliged though) use the big ramp to start. I figure the exit speed at the bottom of the ramp is ± 28 Km/h. Very smooth asphalt. Pitch? I don...

Flavio Badenes

Please note. the comment: "Relax, it's skateboarding!" posted at the end of the riders list on the event website list does NOT reflect my opinion. I surelly want this contest to be runned the proper way and a proper rider´s list is part of it, otherwise we should not have it. The right way is the re...

And Dom, just give me five or ten years and I will give you a fight!

Will do

Flavio Badenes

Carsten you are right, I do understand your point but....I had to make a few deals with the press to see that they would show up.
This was the best way I found to make it possible for them to film the PRO´s with some decent light.

I do hope you understand.

So Antonio, after reading what Dom wrote, should I move your name back with the AM´s ????

No rules applied to more things than skating. John this is so true about Brazil. and THAT was the main reason I left Brasil. A great place but a very dangerous one too. People have no respect for life there. I am kind of busy now organizing the Euros here in Amsterdam. After the contest I will scan ...

By the way the tiny brazilian skater that could do the lay-back air was Dorinho.

I rode with Gordo (whose arm was constantly broken and recasted), Eric Wilner (Spextro Skates) Galinha (Chicken), Chris Redfield, and a couple of others.. There was one really good Brazilian skater whose name I forget , and one good tiny brazilian/german kid who could do layback airs. The big bowl ...
