That is a good idea Jani. For the clips that will need some helping from the slalom community. It's not always easy keeping track of who is who there.

Wes,

The jam format is what they are using and have been using since last year on the weekly competitions in Stockholm. It works perfect for mixing newbies and more experienced riders. 2 best times per rider are added together for the final result. Take as many rides as you want.

By the look of all the "Wilsons" in Paris and Grüningen there is a protection gear that is often forgotten. A shoulder protection. In the above competitions it has been more a rule than an exception that you fall on your side/shoulder than on your front/knees.
