Hi Robert, this in english due to the international character of the event. I have two questions: You say Deadline for registration is June 15. Your timetable says registration is in the morning of July 27th. Do I have to be there this Friday morning? (May be not possible for me) Is it possible to o...

I use his wheels for sliding, they work great!

Chris Eggers

I opened a blog where I will post photos from my archives in the future. There may be slalom photos too, so this is slalom related.

Visit:

if you are interested.

The blog will contain and show a lot of german and international skateboard history.

Parking question:

Where is the best place to leave a car? Tow-Away free and not too expensive and not too far away from Rennweg?

Chris Eggers

WOW!!! Great news! To see the one from 2002 to have a small impression what will go on visit:

We had flat slalom in the 70/80s on gymnastik floors with low ramps, 2 meters straight 15 cones.............sometimes there even was a spectator or two who even watched 5 minutes before deciding that this was the most boring thing he ever saw. why flat? maybe if you can´t find a hill, the good ting ...

Congrats to all the Winners and all contestants in Sweden even without me competing

Chris Eggers

...on its way........

Chris Eggers

I cannot post a photo. I can send you one via email if you want. It does not have the original graphics though. These peeled off.

Chris Eggers

Hi I own a Santa Cruz "H-Bomb" graphite loaded deck. It has green layers between the plys. I believe it is some sort of carbon layer. It was bought well before 1989, late seventies I think. I remember it was very expensive. I bought it in England back then, at Surrey Skateboards. I think carbon is s...

Chris Eggers

Just checked ss.com for the first time since a few months..............

I would love to attend the race, but I am out of action until mid july due to a knee(meniskus) surgery. Everthing is healing well and I should be back on my board soon.

Good luck with the race!

Chris Eggers

Congrats from here! all the best!

well done!

My youngest boy is 9 months and I caught him standing in front of the bathtub laughing this morning..................I will buy him a board this afternoon.

Olympics 2018 winter will be in Russia, it was in the news this morning http://www.spiegel.de/sport/wintersport/0,1518,492495,00.html It will be held in a natural reserve territory, world culture heritage area. There is not a single race track or skilift or hotel, not good enough streets or railways...

Chris Eggers

What did Tony Hawk say?

"Skateboarding does not need the Olympics but the Olympics need Skateboarding"

I don´t know if its a good idea

I want to have Duane Peters as our speaker in front of the Olympic Commetee, please. After all he is one of the best skateboarders, ever...............

I don´t know, no news from Stefano, I hope they are allright!

Yesterday morning at 9:45 our son Niclas "Nic" Eggers was born. He weighed 3.030 grams and is 53 cm long. He was born on a sunny morning like his sister Lale who is as happy as Mama Lisa and Daddy Chris.
We are now happy to be a bigger familiy
Cheers,

Chris

Chris Eggers

Give out stickers to place on helmets

Chris Eggers

Make helmets mandatory, the rest optional.

Chris Eggers

Like I said before.

Flat is dead.

Flat was in the 70s (1970s that is............)

Chris Eggers

Hey Don, Brixlegg is off the wall!
I love it.

It was great.

No flat please..........

Chris Eggers

Slalom Contests held in big cities (Brixlegg is not a big city, but nice) like Zürich, Paris that is what we need. Contests connected to big affairs like the Tunnel opening in Kreuzlingen 2002 or the EXPO Fair in Hannover. Thats what we need. Noone does sit at a slalom skateboard contest longer than...

Chris Eggers

Agreed with Ramon, NO FLAT!

Why not have tight in the town also?
I really doubt people will come to the stadium. We had that before in the 70s, 80s, boring flat stadium racing. Not again please, not with me.

Slalom Skateboarding belongs in the streets...............

Chris Eggers

So, to add to Stefanos post: I will stay at home for the same reasons, as I did for 80 Cones and I will do for the Great Western Race. Sometimes you have to set priorities. The birth dates of Stefanos first and our second child are about the same date, which is quite funny. Let´s see who is faster t...

Chris Eggers

THanks from here Jani. I know how much it means to leave the familiy behind, the kids grow even in one day...................

Death to hackers....................how stupid that is..............destroying a forum. How poor they must be.

Let´s move on.

Report on sk8mag.de:

http://www.sk8mag.de/contests/brixleggJul06/

only in german language. sorry, no time to translate.......yet

or does someone want to step up?

You can send the translation to Bernhard at sk8mag.de

Chris Eggers

Thanks

It is a Henry Hester graphite loaded, painted because the color came down in chips. The wheels are Powell Rollerbones 78 A

Spray painted the trucks too, because they started to rust.
Happy that my teasing went well..............

Chris Eggers

I have a set..................

I just want to tease you, they are not for sale

I only have a photo of them mounted...........sorry

Chris Eggers

So....intersting. There seems to be a contest for a contest. Or even better for two contests........the worlds candidates and the Euro candidates. Considering the fact that we did not have ANY races in Europe for a decade or more that is very good. Great. I was thinking of something that I was hesit...

Chris Eggers

Silly question...............really!
Had to grin. I hope you decide right.

Chris Eggers

I want to refer to my post "imagination of a perfect Slalom race" http://www.slalomskateboarder.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=3773&highlight= Brixlegg certainly was not perfect, and it was not all true what Donald said before, but I did not expect that much. Organising a slalom race is a hard task. very...

Chris Eggers

Ok now,

I have them packed and ready, please PM me your adress and I´ll send them off today.

Noticed a funny thing:

They had signature wedge pads in the 70´s!
Yes, one of the pads has "Chris Yandall", the other "Wayne Brown" written on the thick side.

Who is/was Wayne Brown? Does anybody know?

Chris Eggers

Wow, I just wanted to congrat a friend, it was slalom related because Yoyo is a great slalomer too. And he can even do inverts on transitions.So I´ll even call him great allround skateboarder. And now guys are hating.......nononono, this is not what I intended. He won the 360 comp at a World Champ. ...

Congrats to Yoyo Schultz!

Once again 360 World Champion!

Chris Eggers

Oh yes, sorry, I forgot. Lots going on. I´ll check the postage this week and will let you know.

Chris Eggers

Also a warm thank you Donald from me. You deserve respect for pulling this off. Having a race of this caliber is a gigantic effort. Thanks to Brixlegg for letting us use their village. Thanks to the Cradle Skatepark for scratching my kneecaps open and having one of the best sessions of my life. Awes...

Chris Eggers

It looks like Brixlegg is really really small, like just one main road, houses left and right and thats it. I think the venues will be easy to find. No worries. Parking is usually not a problem in these towns, at least not in summertime. On a side note: The weather is said to be really nice and warm...

Bernhard "Frankenblitz" Kumpel makes good wheels in his garage. I tried them on a slalom board and they were pretty good. He makes freestyle wheels mostly though. I will lead him to this thread.

Chris Eggers

Yoyo maybe?

Everyone: please bring your first photo on a skateboard!

Chris Eggers

so did I.

Easter 1976!

let´s celebrate............

Chris Eggers

hm...............are we adults?

do we need guards for this?

self control?

Chris Eggers

One more question Donald.............. In Ski racing the racers have the chance to walk the course for a long time in advance (walk, not ride) to see how they will negotiate certain hairy turns and difficult parts of the course. Will it be the same for us in the special and giant? I think it would b...
