we have organized only 2 competitions, so far everybody loves the sport, first race was on a 250ft road, medium to shallow grade, consisted on 15 cones SGS, and it was a sucess.
last competition consisted in 2 lines of 25 cones 11ft apart, this was more exciting and got more positive feedback from riders/public/media.

next comp will be in december, more info to come.

pics and vids will be up soon.

venezuela was a great slalom country back in the 70's (ask chris chaput or gilmour) and i want to be a strong country again, so watch it world here we come!

post any questions reviews or memories taht u have aboout south america skating.

Does somebody know if there are Slalomskateboarder in Paraguay?

Last year I was there, but with out any board.
I found wide good roads, nearly without cars,
except Asuncíon.

Thanks,
Joachim Leonhardt
