Help us get this correct for all juniors (and also masters). If you're 40 or above, give us your birth year now and you'll be automatically taken into the master class when you reach 45.

Thanks Janis,

I will add the women disciplines for next update.

But the three disciplines are there. It's just that when you look on your "racer homepage" you only see the two best results that are counted into the ranking.

If you go to the "event homepage" you will see all the disciplines and classes. Grenoble 2010 results

slalomranking- correction

Hi Corky,

Thanks for putting in the work for the rankings table!

I think there might be the following mistake with my results..

At Grenoble I placed 5,7,11, so that, as I understand it, 5,7 should be counted towards my ranking.

At the moment I'm rated as 7,11 for Grenoble.

Could you check that out please?

One other small point- in the children's category, my son's (Felix Thiele) surname is spelt incorrectly.

Once again, many thanks- maybe we ought to rename the rankings the "Corky world rankings"... I'd vote for it, anyway..

7:th Place SPC -- OK
11:th Place Giant -- OK
5:th Place Tight -- OK

Ok, I see what is going on here. Actually it is all correct.
First, unfortunatly only the two best "ranking results" are shown per event.
By "ranking results" meaning the points you get for the result.
What is happening here is that you are on the edge of getting PRO points at all. You need 8 racers and there are 8 in GS and 8 in Special. But not in Tight were it is only 7 pro racers. So the world ranking points fall out like this...

11 PRO GS 315
7 PRO Special 350
4 OPEN TS 312

Too bad you did your best result in that TS where you only got OPEN points. But you could also be happy that you got PRO points at all. It was on the limit. ;-)

It will be corrected for next update. Funny I have always thought it was the same name. But now when I looked really carefully actually it was not. Funny how the eye can fool you when you already know what to expect.
Robert Thiele wrote:Once again, many thanks- maybe we ought to rename the rankings the "Corky world rankings"... I'd vote for it, anyway..
Well I have never thought about it this way. But I know many do see it that way. And it has been a problem. That is why it took 8 years of this world ranking "version 2" before ISSA now finally officially announced it as the ISSA World Ranking.

I have always seen it as an ISSA World Ranking. It was made for the slalom community and it has evolved during the years with all comments that have been made from the community and taking into account the slalom scene as it has been during all these years. Actually all the years from back in the early 90's where the first ISSA World Ranking "version 1" was done. And then also was recognized as such.

But it's true that nobody knows it better than me. Quite normal looking at the history of it all. And for me being a ranking freak and having worked with it so much over the years. I know all the details and why they are there.

But hopfully more will get involved now so that we can take the slalomranking site to the ultimate level where it can be the face of the whole slalom scene. It's impossible to do for a single person or two. It has to be a slalom community effort.

Hi Corky! Thanks for all the work you are doing.

Is it normal that in the World Rankings, the Men Pro and Women categories display the 4 year ranking while the Men Am, Boys, and Girls categories seem to display the current season?

Yes that's the way it is setup for the "official world rankings". The idea is that these are the ones you want to push for in the media aso.

There are many other "world rankings" in the system and may be more to come. But it seemed to be a good idea filter out the single most important rankings this way.

Actually the time might have come to make an official "Master World ranking" also now. We start to have a respectable amount of masters out there...

Points Calculations

Corky, the following is from Louis Ricards' race summary in the Pro rankings for 2010. What I can not understand is why points for the National Championships awarded are worth less then an Outlaw event or most other events he and any other Canadian participated in except for possibly the world Champioshhip? Makes no sense at all.

Event Discipline Class Place Points
Texas Cold Fusion Sizzler SPC PO 2 450
Texas Cold Fusion Sizzler GS PO 3 420
2010 Antrim Can/Am Slalom Championships SPC OP 1 390

I don't see any National Championship in your list...hmm maybe you mean the Can/Am?

Can/Am has Main Status
Da Farm has Prime status.

And still they give the same points for a first place...

This is because your Can/Am Main status only had 4 Pro's attending. So it then counts as an OPEN with points from the OPEN table.

The Farm Prime status is right on the limit with 8 pro's to count PRO points for the Pros.

According to the ranking points table...
1:st place Main OPEN 390 points
1:st place Prime PRO 390 points

Nationals

Posted: Sat Jan 22, 2011 3:51 pm
by Claude Regnier
The 7th Annual Dovercourt Open is also the Canadian Nationals and has been since 05 or 06. This has always been at least a Main or a Major. It is the biggest race for most Canadians to attend.

It should always be regarded as such. If competitors from all around choose not to attend then they miss out on the points it should not be the other way around.

The costs associated with getting to races here are almost double what they are for the European events and we have far less options.

Last years race numbers were down in North Americe in a variety of ways. Last years board also gave it a higher status in their adjustment to the rankings system. Bottom line is how does an Outlaw event distribute point values higher then a sanctioned National Championship? If it is simply attendance then why do we even bother with advanced status?

Too late! ;-)

I had intended to race pro in 2010 before the ISSA classes were changed, so have asked Corky to move me to the pro rankings now that pro status has returned. I like my current 4th place rank in AMs of course, but its not right to take it after I said I would race pro after the 2009 season. I encourage others who had stated they would race pro in 2010 year to do the same - you know who you are. ;-)

...I think Mr. Thiele has us all beat for PRY though Petr.

Well, you don't loose the status. Even if you are only 8 am's the event is still a Main status. If it would have lowered the status you would have lost even more points.

But it's true that the system also take into account the actual attendance. And it only mainly affects the point potential of PRO's. These are the rules:

- If race has 8 or more pro racers
PRO racers will get points according to the PRO POINT TABLE.
AM racers will get points according to the AM POINT TABLE.
- If race has 1-7 pro racers
PRO and AM get points according to the OPEN POINT TABLE
- If race has no pro racers
AM racers will get points according to the AM POINT TABLE.

So to fully take advantage of PRO points for any race you need 8 pro racers.


I agree that outlaw event should not be in the ranking if with outlaw you mean that normal ISSA rules are not followed.

I agree that it is not good to call an event outlaw either way. But the ranking does not take into account what people call their events. But this could very well be taken into account by the ranking marshals. For example to not give away high statuses to events calling themselves outlaw.

If you feel that Da Farm did not live up to the ISSA rules you are right it should not be counted as a Prime. But I have no idea. If someone have more info about this please let us all know. Maybe the current North Amrican marshals for 2011 can give it some thought.

By the way have a look at the www.slalomranking.com site.

We have tried to get some style on the articles so we soon can start up the article management on the site.

Most administrators (Ranking, Calendar, Marshals, BOD, ...) will be able to register new articles about their work.

The main deal though is when event organizers later can take advantage of the automatically included homepage for each event added to the slalom ranking calendar. Then they will be able to add articles about their events as well and we could finally see the start of what has been the goal with this ranking site since early 2000.

Please check for double registrations (funny spellings), birth years for Master Ams (not reported in the Masters category), birth year for Juniors (not reported in the Jun category).

If you see a nick name for someone and not their full name, can you report back to Corky who that might be? It would really help, especially if this person is already in the ranking under a different name.

Thanks!

Ok we are done with changes for the 2010 ranking. I think we have taken care of most of the things. This last round did not produce any more fixes so that is a good sign.

I will re-calculate a new version of the ranking anyway only to be sure and then it's a wrap.

The 2010 ranking will be the official published ranking until March 31. Then at April 1 we will have the first ranking up for the 2011 season.

Only two more months and we are there... and by then hopefully most of the events in the calendar and statuses will be settled as well.
