Sounds good, Mig.
What on earth is Excelmate, and where can we find a version?

Edit in reply to above:

THANKS CORKY!

Hi Jani, My only concern is that I did not want to continually pester Dan for sheets. If I'm doing it, then there must be quite a few others who are doing similar. It just seems an unnecessary overload for Dan that detracts from the core profit-making side of his business. Whilst he is happy to prov...

Is there an open-source race spreadsheet that can be downloaded direct from this site? One that is compatible with Corky's World Ranking programme? I am aware of the Seismic spreadsheet and am very grateful for its use, however this is only available to those 'in the know.' A generic spreadsheet in ...

Sam Gordon

Thanks Graeme, received the deck today. Great condition! I've been looking for one of these for a few years now. It's a great piece of slalom history from the early 2000s. Part of the slalom resurgence from the Worlds at Morro Bay and the FCR race series. Very pleased to finally have one. You headin...

Sam Gordon

Anyone have one of these for sale. Preferably mint!
Thanks,

Just to get the ball rolling, the UK have booked Hog Hill ( http://redbridgecyclingcentre.co.uk/ ) for the following weekends in 2015: 23rd & 24th May The Crackling 19th & 20th July Summer Swine Stomp 11th & 12th October Hogtoberfest I'm sure that there will be date clashes with other comps, so let ...

Sam Gordon

I believe that Paul Price will arrive in Gothenburg at around 10:00pm on Thursday night, so his part in course setting might be an issue.

Sam Gordon

Thanks Jani. I'll take a look!

Hi Viking,

Can't remember if I've paid and registered for this.
Is there a list of participating riders so that we can see where we are and what we are up against?

Thanks,

Sam

Sam Gordon

Second reminder that The Crackling is not on the dates advertised in the calendar, but is on the 24th and 25th May.
Is it possible to change this on the calendar?

Thank you,

Sam

Sam Gordon

Just a quick reminder that The Crackling is not on the dates advertised in the calendar, but is on the 24th and 25th May.
Is it possible to change this on the calendar?

Thank you,

Sam

Sam Gordon

We have swapped to the weekend before (24th 25th May) in the short term. This is a UK Bank Holiday which may cause problems, but in principal it's go.

Sam Gordon

It looks like the Swedes are planning a bit of a skate bash at the end of July, which will clash with the UKSSA dates of 26th/ 27th July. I have brought our dates forward by a week to the 19th and 20th of July. Is there the Paris comp next year? Will this clash with our May/ June dates? If nothing f...

Sam Gordon

That works.

Thanks Jani!

Due to a double booking, The Crackling 2014 will now take place at Hog Hill on the 31st May/ 1st June.
Thanks,

Sam

Sam Gordon

Hi Jani, I could see about the May date (17th & 18th) for a Main cat race, but this might conflict with the Paris WSC event being at a similar time. One of the chief difficulties we have is being able to book the cycle track for full days because the council property demands that a Child Cycling edu...

Sam Gordon

Crackling and Hogtoberfest should be Basic, Summer Swine Fever should be Prime.

Thanks Peter

Sam

Sam Gordon

Is it too early to post dates for the UK Hog Hill races 2014?

No matter. Here goes:

24th May/ 25th May 2014 - The Crackling 2014
19th/20th July 2014 - Summer Swine Fever
4th/5th October 2014 - Hogtoberfest 2014

Sam Gordon

Good stuff. Thanks Peter.

Sam Gordon

Hi Corky and Team,

On the Ranking section, when you go to 'Events' the calendar that appears is for 2012 rather than 2013. Is is possible this can be re-directed?

Thank you,

Hi Gents, The 'Hog Hill Open Season' race on 18th & 19th May has now had its name changed to 'The Crackling 2013.' Can this please be changed on the Events page. All other details are the same. No worries if not possible. I've put a link to it here: http://www.slalomskateboarder.com/phpBB/viewtopic....

Camping: As regards accommodation, the simplest, cheapest and nearest option is to camp at the Lambourne End Centre. We have a field booking from Thursday 1st August to Sunday 4th August. Once we have a charging system in place, the cost will be £15 per person, per night. http://www.lambourne-end.o...

Interlude: Local point of skate interest about a couple of miles away is the Rom Skatepark: http://goo.gl/maps/JDqvi Website: http://romskatepark.com/ http://www.concretedisciples.com/cd_skate/UK/romford/rom_moguls1_opt.jpg Recent pics here: http://cakeaholicsanonymous.wordpress.com/2011/07/30/rom-...

Quite a shock to hear the very sad news of Peter's passing. Both very keen competitor and easy chap to get on with, it was great to chat about sailing with Peter as we waited to race. My sincere condolences to his family.

Thanks Jani. GFX probably won't be sorted until new year. I'll leave picking up July for now and will maybe take it up if it does not disappear over the next month. Sorting out Euros camping today.

Sam Gordon

If July 2013 is still available then the UKSSA will grab that too. Let me know if that is OK, what with Rob sponsoring August. Given the start date of the Euros would it not be best that Rob's booking is brought forward to July? If not, then we can always have UKSSA Euros and link to the event in Ju...

Sam Gordon

Think I may have confused Rob with the dates when we put in the application.

The dates for the Euros will be from Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th August. 2013! there is no Monday involved.

Thanks,

Any news of the Paypal set up as yet? Im sure that most folks would rather pay a premium of 3.5% rather than 29%!!!

Thanks for the below!

Sam Gordon

THAT SOUNDS PROMISING! However the bank I'm with, HSBC, offers this: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8430/7808333940_6b59ce01fa.jpg How much will it cost? If your payment falls within the criteria for a Worldpay payment, the charge is £9. All other payments will be charged at £17. If you want the bene...

Sam Gordon

Can we pay by Paypal or on arrival?
Bank transfers are notoriously expensive and the money only goes into into bankers' bonuses rather than into the economy, as we are witnessing!
Thanks,

Sam

Oh yes, where do we find a list of registered riders?

Sam Gordon

Fantastich!

Our best are on it:

Cancelled. Due to a mix up with the track booking Motor Sports Vision (MSV), who run Brands Hatch, have already let out the GP loop on 8th July unbeknown to the event organiser that was letting us use the track, this only came to light this afternoon. So we must announce that The Rush 2012 has been...

Hi Flavio, because of various family commitments I've registered and booked on a redeye flight to arrive Saturday morning; which should get to the race site around 10:00am. If I don't make it then please get one of the UK bunch to qualify for me. Paul Price is usually very helpful in this matter, bu...
