Slalom! archive: issue n° 6 posted

Post by Jani Soderhall » Sun Feb 08, 2004 9:59 pm

This issue has major reporting from the former Soviet Union by Gints Gailitis who over the year contributed more than any other foreign correspondent. With the "Russians" on board, slalom racing in Europe got extra fuel and everybody wanted to race the Russians. Little did we know then that the Russians, were not only Russians, but Latvian, Estonian, Lithuanian and Ukrainian...

In 2003 Gints was back on his board and racing again. He's never been the best racer out there, but probably nobody has done more slalom competions that him. Wanna bet?

Thank you Jani, You know I love reading those very much. I hope one day in the future you will print them all out in a book form like we'd talk about in the past. I'll be 1st on the list to purchase.
I have found a few of my old "Slalom"mags from the early 90's behind a bookcase, but some I fear are gone for ever.
Thanks for the effort to post them here.
