ISSA - International Slalom Skateboarding Association

Thanks to all for a great race and week-end in London.
We had a great time at the pub friday evening, racing and the facilities were fantastic, and tequila with the Tcheques finnished it all in style.
Nice to meet new friends Mmedo, Mike and Ben from Pïg City, Bruno from English Brazil, Ed and the stickers and Barts compatriot from Holland...
Really hope to be back next year. Thank you so much to Sam, Rob, Mikael, the time keeper and all the others.
Thumps up all the way from Dupont familly. Pics will be up next week when we will be back home in sunny and warm south of France.
