Detlef,
I really hope you run another event man. Hannover was so much fun. Great ramps- good flowy courses and lots of local spectators. I know it's way late but thanks dude.

PPR Paul Pellerin Racing!
I just wanted to send out a big shout out and thanks to Paul Pellerin from Maine. He's super stoked and has been my biggest sponsor as I've struggled from a broken leg to the podium. A lot of people talk about how the young guys are becoming a bigger part of the sport but this guy really helps out a...

We're all trying to do our part. I think that having others to follow the example of for race organization- makes race organizing easier. The DHB and COSS have really done this. They have also formed organizations like the ASSA which makes race insurance a much more managable. All we can do is try, ...

the greatest thing about the Antrim NH race is that so far it's kinda been off the grid. $25 entry, prizes, amazing venue and a group of local racers who are wicked fast. It's really up to Brian Behl and Joe I but I think they could get a big status race if they wanted, I'm still on the fence on whe...

The increasing cost of racing
Races cost lots of money. Does anyone have ideas to get alternative funding for it so that eventually entry fees could maybe go down? Is anyone else curious why the entry fees for the American Races keep going up. This isn't a stab at any one race or organizer anything because it's obviously effecti...

Alternating cone colors is really important in practice because I like to set super techy and charge into the course, when your flying it's alot easier to go "RED RIGHT WHITE LEFT RED RIGHT WHITE LEFT" than anything else. It helps me get more power on each pump, run cleaner and think less while I'm ...

You don't need to plan your skate sessions that far in advance, especially in the hot bed of slalom activity like Köln.

So do you still ride either the 32 or the 36?

Which is why I just travelled wi...

On big courses the 32 would accellerate really well but hit top speed to early. The 36 would float at a great top speed but be hard to get there ri...

My opinion is also that Juniors should primarily race in local races and big international events are for Pro and top Am skaters.
