Here is the chalet I reserve for all the competitors and staff (30 places) http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs083.snc1/4571_1163638254215_1325617739_30449605_7972617_n.jpg And here is the place we race the straight and the special on sathurday only 400 meters from the chalet. Perfect asp...

Here are some pictures of the super-Giant road. The place is amazing, lost in the nature. But I've a lot of work to clean the road. The asphalt as often in the mountain is not so perfect as what you can find in a city. http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs103.snc1/4571_1163608053460_132561...

Dear friends from Italia. Just want to announce our competition. Newrider slalom race in Isola 20 and 21 of June (on the French side of col de la Lombarde in Piemont) We had on Sathurday : tight 50 cones and special slalom in dual race in the middle of the village. Then on Sunday : Giant hybrud on t...

Pierre Samray

Great news Petr!! About accomodation : Just tell me when you arrive and how many place you need, I'm looking after everything. I reserve a big chalet for all the staff and racers. 4 slaloms in 2 days. I pass all the day on the super giant place yesterday. I've to clean all the road (stones, rock, ar...

Pierre Samray

Vincent Berruchon
Florian Lombardo
Johan Chzarnowski
Jocelyn Declementi

will certainly be there too.

Well 20 or 25 French racers on the same race!! Crazy!!

Pierre Samray

Hey Ramon! may be not the place to speak of that, but I send message to Dominik and Peter about the status of the race I organize one week before in Isola and have no answer since more than one month????

Pierre Samray

About the special it will be something as last year for amateur and maybe we ask 3 pros from 3 differents nations to put the pro one. Giant will be long, large and fast... But I just see the slope under the rain last year and have actually no idea of the design of the course. Certainly something whi...

Pierre Samray

Yes same distance as last year, in straight slalom : 1m70.

We'll use 300 meters of this perfect asphalt. Slope moving between 2° and 6° finish area is flat. LAST...

Pierre Samray

I can't believe it, but watching the calendar I realize I'm 45 years old (may 64). Well I just have to trained again and compete in this new class.

Pierre Samray

Fresh news about Isola : Finally we have a perfect road with soft slope in the middle of the village which permit to race in dual on sathurday. So straight become 50 cones in dual in place of the one track 100 cones on saturday morning and special become dual too on saturday afternoon. On sunday mor...

Pierre Samray

I'm afraid it will be impossible for you to race the final of the special in the pro class, even if we start at five in the morning. If you have to take plane à 4:30 in Lyon, may be you have to go at twelve! think about the trafic between Grenoble and Lyon! The only way would be to put pro the morni...

Pierre Samray

Oups! Want to say. The race is a part of the French championship.

Tested the asphalt today. It was perfect.
I add some pictures on the French site : riderz.net

I have Philippe (the head organizer this morning at phone) I tell him we need to see the racers list so they are working to correct that and the racers list will be available soon but you can already register. 12 already do it since 2 days. Schedule is something as Saturday morning : on Seyssins roa...

Pierre Samray

Jani's break after mine these last 2 years. Jean Sebastien says "Antibes but not in Antibes" He means that I'm back to organize something with Antibes longskate survivors. This race will be a part of the french championship, but open to all. A race for the racers. No advertissments, no much public. ...

Pierre Samray

First Point Ramon it's a good think now you seem to realise your atitude wasn't corect, expecialy for someone who has the statut of marshal (may be too heavy for your young shoulders). And I'm happy for this. You must understand organizers are responsable of the security on the course area. At this ...

Pierre Samray

Ramon

what do you mean with : DITTO

1) I really sorry for what happen and try to control myself next time and apologize for the spectator.

2) I don't care about what you can say. I don't change anything and ll'do the same next time.

3) f#@k you all, I'm god

Pierre Samray

Philippe Galindo and is crew show this years again that they are professional in event organisation (12 years organizing snowboard events). The weather should destroy all their work. It's a pity for the giant we must cancel. I think for Jani, Hans, JS and me, it's a pleasure to work for this event w...

Pierre Samray

No problem guy. Go to eastbourne. Nice place to learn downhill. 55km/h max speed and 50 secondes long. Funny that you prefer flat place for downhill than for slalom. I expect you will be in Izoard too...I think it's "hum" a little bit more technical and speed... See you was 20th and Dom 60th in Peyr...

Pierre Samray

The straight will be 170 for everybody. The giant will be fast and long. (10% about 500 meters long) certainly one of the fastest and longest giant of the season The special will be technical. Very interesting fight with the 3 K (Konighausen, Kowalski, Kuzmins) and we expect a lot of good challenger...

Pierre Samray

About prize money : About 3000 € (depend of how many racer coming).
Organizer explain me that : There will be price money for each slalom (giant, straight, spécial) and not on the overall ranking. Let's chance to good giant specialist to catch some money!

Pierre Samray

As far I know. Prize money is 3000€ I 'm not sure about the distribution system. I ask to Philippe and tell you more. Happy to see you can be interest to come in Grenoble Steve . I remember you like fast big giant as I! Ok straight and special are on the flat but the stadium, the public and the exce...

Pierre Samray

News informations about giant place. 8 to 12% slope and 550 meters long. Forgot the poor flat place" we had for the giant last year! Grenoble propose step slope for those who like speed and flat for the technical races with a lot of public sitting in a olympic stadium. What can be better for slalom ...

Pierre Samray

Thank you Donald for your very interesting post.
Positiv and constructiv as usual.
Have a good day.

Pierre Samray

Registrations are open! Have a look to the internet site
Olympic stadium for tight and special and a very fast long road for a true giant!
http://www.desaxe-skateslalom.com/

See you.

Pierre Samray

Anyway the status Peter. Let's have fun!

Michel if time enough we probably put straight and special. (not hybrid)
Nice to see you...bring the Shrek with you.
I'll put a topic on riderz by this way we can speak about that in French.

Pierre Samray

Ok Pat, Thank you! As I say . It's not an official race (no autorisation) so far from the world cup we used to organise since long years. Just something to move the Antibes slalom scene which was dying. And it's work! Already 10 riders expect to come only from the nearest city. About the possibility...

Pierre Samray

Oups! I just forget to precise that Antibes is in France (French riviera) (between Nice and Cannes)
But everybody practising slalom skate knows that for sure

Pierre Samray

Sunday November 18th We organize an outlaw race in Antibes. Name will be something as "Sudiste slalom skate series" "SSSS" To carry the slalom scene from the French riviera. Giant on the morning then Hybrid or tight in the afternoon Previous : an old school session as high jump or 360° demo. just wa...

Pierre Samray

I just have Philippe at the phone. For sure Philippe isn't a proffesionel of slalom skate, but he knows how to make grow an event with media. The public was present on the stadium for the parallel final. The results is very positve with the city responsables and the politics. (even if I tell to a ma...

Hello all. There is actualy 40 racers who have already register. Seems it will be a great contest.

but it depend of what type of hotel you expect.

A wedding? Is it yours? ...Such a pity that one of the fastest european racer won't be here but I expect to see the other guys of the very strong swedish team... I decide to stop because I've no really time to train, after several accidents this last 10 years, doctor ask me to be quiet... Now work a...

Hello Wesley! thank you for your encouragement. yes! great eperience in Folly Beach. I don't forget you lend me your board (a santacruz with no grip..oups! :-)) because of a too tight slalom for my 36 inches ALUFLEX.( beat by Molica in quarter finale!) Sure I'm certainly the only french too race the...

Pierre Samray

Grenoble should be my only race this year and it should be my last race since I decide to stop with racing. Unfortunatly I had a big crash in downhill mountain bike in Les 2 Alpes two weeks ago and I'm out for a long time."Clavicle, ribs and wrist broken". Anyway as I say to Philippe I'll be there t...

Pierre Samray

What we call cyber slalom is the french cyber slalom.(40 cones with 1m80 spaces) But in fact it's just what some call tight slalom and the true name must be straight slalom. Swedish must be the official language for slalom. I receive practicly every days mail from swedish racers. I don't understand ...

Pierre Samray

I speak about different level between the pros. But the problem is more important with the other big class as (amateur, woman, young) which count in, practicly pro racers and young beginners. One point we have to see is that you're on an European championship. that's mean best racers of european cou...

Pierre Samray

Well if ISSA write 1m70. Let's be ok for 1m70. Think that certain concrate on flat are more fast than dirty or roughly surface with a 1 or 2% slope For sure. What we want is that, most of the racers take pleasure with racing. What we don't want : Is to see racers pushing 20 cones (mmm...personnal ex...

Pierre Samray

Hello all. just takes some minutes to comment what I can read here. Everybody have part of truth here. The vision of Philippe who is used to organize gliss event is to bring the public to see a slalom skate event. For sure flat isn't what we prefer. All the opposant come here to tell it. But as long...

Hello Detlev. Grenoble will not organize anything in 2008. And think about Brixxleg which organize the "world" without experience this years. So the project is GRENOBLE EURO 2007 Philippe is back from his vacation and will annouce the project himself soon(or give us all the details). just what I kno...

Don says "the latvian race and the antibes races are known for not following through from quali to finals". ??????? don't understand....??? So you was here, disguised in Palm tree? The only problem I've seen this year in Antibes was when I've announced a sponsor who was not here. Fortunatly others d...

Pierre Samray

I speak with Philippe the Organizer, this morning. Everything seems to be ok It should be a great event in the center of Grenoble (for the giant) and on the olympic stadium for the others slalom. At the same moment it could have concerts and others sports activity. There is 3000 sit places in the st...

Pierre Samray

Thank you Jani and Gianluca. The only think I want is to see everybody happy and having fun. Now more serious all the results : and a big thanks to Jerome who looks after that, even if he's not use to do it. http://jaytherider.free.fr/explorer/.dirsys/list.php?0=descente&1=Antibes%20slalom%20world%2...
