Thanks, so I'll wait to send my picture for the moment.
I'm new here and new in slalom skateboardin too, just ridin' cones for a little more than a month...
Paris 2003 was my first skateboarding competition. I was there to help at the organization and to try to race in Amateur class.
I can see that most of the skaters I've seen at the Trocadero event are members of this forum...
they helped me a lot to tune my so new slalom board (I just bought it one day before the competition)
and to find a way to skate on it... particulary Swedish guys, Vlad, John G (sayin us "wider-wider"...), the "oldtimers" trocadero crew and Kenny (but for non skate issue
)
(and of course Jani, Etienne and all the Riderz crew before that)
and it works better than I would have expected since I've finished at 4th position of the overall AM classement, ex aequo with Cedric, a mad downhill longboarder!
So I'm really happy to have find this forum that seems to be full of good informations.
Just one last thing, I can predict that the french slalom scene will grow quite quickly this year and we will be ready for a great 2004 event in front of the Eiffel tower!
See you in Paris soon
PS: Sorry for my quite bad english
