Yes. DH race in the Laurentians, north of Montreal. Was planned a long time ago and it's one of the nicest local ones of the season. You have even been called out on the Montreal forum for doing it the same day... LOL! Danilo is working on the 26th, Pierre's girlfriend will be giving birth anyday a...

Chad - good stuff from a different perspective. I hear you, and I think the regional/local race series idea solves some of those problems. Race locally for less money against others with similar equipment and "get your feet we" (i.e. get hooked?) and maybe even beat a few people....keep going to ser...

NESRA's ramps are not "big ramps" in my book. At five feet high and with longboard friendly pumpable trannies, they are pretty much the perfect ramps for open events. Fast enough to make a slow spot fun for fast riders, not high and steep enough to scare away total noobs, and longboard compatible f...

My experience has been that speed and big ramps will not turn off new riders - we had at least 4-5 "never raced" at our NESRA GS/SG/DH and they all killed it...SL/TS prob would have been more of a challenge for them, and maybe a turn off. Granted, they were all good skaters before the race, but that...
