Sweet video! C'est bon - merci beaucoup Julie!
Pierre - I think maybe it is the rider that is twisted, not the deck!
Wish I could have hung around for the awards...next time.

Yup...figured that out last night! At first glance looks like that sucker is twisting though.

Good photographer! Nice ones of Julie (IMGP7545.jpg) and Louis (IMGP7727.jpg) faces intensely focused on the course.
And this one I like because of what the board is doing....got torsional flex?
Eric B. and I are hoping to carpool up for the Dovercourt race!!

I had an unbelieveably good time racing with all you people yesterday. I felt at home from the second everybody got there. No attitudes just tons of fun and great racing. Thanks especially to Danilo, Pierre and Mig for all the tips - and to Pierre and Joelle for the great food and hospitality afterwards. Sorry to leave the party early but I was fading fast and going into a big time food coma with the drive back home ahead. I'd go up there again ANY time! Canada Rocks!!

If she wants to shake something else you can forget about the slalom...
See you tomorrow, Happy Birthday, and Welcome to the Masters Class!

No, the parking is actually 250$ but you get a hand car wash by 12 hot models dressed like french maids and one of those hottie is shaking free margaritas for the racers.
Not really, the parking is absolutely free.
