Vinzz, how did you know?Are your balls made of crystal Peter?
Yo Martin, hope your right.Where did the 1.90m rumour come from? Seeing as the French are organising doesn't that seem a little unlikely? It was 1.80 on a slope at Paris, if anything won't they go tighter....1.70m ?
I'd like to know too!Martin Drayton wrote:Where did the 1.90m rumour come from?

It's on. Last time I spoke with Philippe at Désaxé he was busy running the last part of their Snowboard series. He said that they'll soon start working on updating their website www.desaxe.com so that we could have some more race info.Martin Drayton wrote:Hi guys,
Is this event definitely happening?
I support all types of TS slalom; from "flat on 1.50m" (or less!) to "2m50 on a steep hill".Detlef Rehbock wrote:the evolution in our sports goes forward. flatland slalom is old school.
when i organised the 2006 hannover race, it was only an emergency solution,
to go on a flat parking lot, because they cancelled our expo party.
flatland slalom is out for most of the skaters. it´s way more fun to race on a slope.
it´s faster so it´s more exciting for spectators too. sure it´s possible but i prefer to look forward. trucks are getting more radikal. wheels get more grip. boards have concave now, so the standing is better. our sport goes faster. don´t stop it on a flat course.
sorry for last year. there was no other possibility for us. this year we turn back to expo area.
I think all the negative feedback comes from a small group of skaters, some which are good, but not at all representative of the best. It also happens that Donald, who was the maybe the most critical was in competition over this years Euro Championships location, so you need to take that into account.Schaf wrote:I would ask me, if it is a good idea to organize a contest with such number of negative feedbacks. And the feedbacks come from the best riders...as far as I know them.
Shaf is would listen to every people whinning on the forum it's long time that organizers would have stop organizing anything.Schaf wrote:I'm a silent observer of this topic. I won't write anything about my opinion to the flat-land skating, because I won't participate at the Euro.
But if I would be in the OK of Grenoble, I would ask me, if it is a good idea to organize a contest with such number of negative feedbacks. And the feedbacks come from the best riders...as far as I know them.
Just a dream.... one of France most touristic region....Steve Hinzen wrote: empty roads

Steve, in fear of flat slalom.
