Nice euro tour report Maria

Here's a Press review of Paris Festival Glisse and Paris Slalom World Cup

(a few things are still missing, like i-tele news TV boardcast and Hawaii Surf catalog /mag that is widelydiffused)
If you know some other coverages, especially from foreign media, let me know

Despite the rain, we finally had a lot of coverage and still more contacts for good things next year

Thanks to the entire Riderz crew for all your effort to run this event. We had a great time visiting Paris again. Now if we can just do something about that rain! Nice to see all our international friends again and stoked to meet many new ones as well.

Major Congrats go out to Brad "The Jackhammer" Jackman who swept the Open Division Overall first in Paris and then in Hannover the weekend following! Super stoked for Brad to make such a comeback after the elbow break in Brixlegg last year. Way to go -- The AXE Army Salutes You!!

Still recovering from jetlag but have posted a bunch of pics and trip report here: EURO TOUR 2007

Cheers!

Five years racing at Paris! wow!

Here are some photos - great to see so many people travelling for the event, and well done to all, the racing was so close. Everyone is getting faster and the racing is so much fun.

Marcus was very fast and clean in the tight, Ramon showed how good he has become in the hybrid and Jason taking 1st in the GS on the last run of the day was spectacular.

I'd like to say a huge thanks to Vinz, Jani and everyone involved in the RIDERZ association. In spite of weather you guys did throw a true world class event I had fun the whole time, thanks!!!

Special thanks to Patrick Allan who found me three different random places to crash through out the weekend. Bumming through paris when you don't speak any french is nuttty!

This weekend was the first time I ever managed a podium at a world class event, I'll never forget it.

Marcus Seyffarth · Post by **Marcus Seyffarth** » Tue May 29, 2007 9:14 pm

I must say I have mixed emotions from the PSWC2007, but I would like to say a big thank you to Jani and Corky. Without you guys I think there would'nt have been a race at all. I really admire that you time after time take on the ungrateful (and unpaid) job of timing races and listening to whining racers. Also I would like to thank Janis brother who always show up at the troca fixing stuff, counting cones trying to make sure we get to race.

It was really nice and fun to hang out with all racers, good luck to all of you that are going to Hannover!

Peter Klang · Post by **Peter Klang** » Tue May 29, 2007 3:49 pm

Not really,
I had a very strong tail wind. If it is to be a record I have to run it from both ends and divade the combined time. This is just going one way. I will post it when I do it both way´s, and I am speaking of slalom skateboard still.

Set up?
Indiana Klangster the gangster PRO model, Radical Klangster claw in the back and Radical Peitirus model in the front. On the axel was Retros PK PRO wheels hand made by chaput for ME. I was wearing a white WE t-shirt and POC PK model helmet and Billabong shorts. On my feet, Osiris Klang Kung model shoes.

I think it will be hard to go sub 8,5 both ways, but I will try.

Peace
PK

Guillaume Saint-Criq · Post by **Guillaume Saint-Criq** » Tue May 29, 2007 1:12 pm

Thank you all for coming this WE.

Weather was not in our side this year but we managed to do our best.
We hope you will all understand for delays and other problems due to meteo.
We would like to thank you all for coming and we hope that despite of the rain, you all have great time racing, and meeting each other in Paris.

Hope to see you all in Hannover!

PS : incredible time Peter! you kick Allan's time!
I will update the list here http://www.riderz.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2918
What was your setup?

Peter Klang · Post by **Peter Klang** » Tue May 29, 2007 9:19 am

Great you got results in all events. Hope SAS will fly me next time.
It looked from my side of the computer the results were very mixed up in all courses. Jason starting with a 20 th but came back on monday. Well, hope to see you all in Hannover.

In frustration over missing PSWC I ran a French 40 cone cyber yesterday,
TIME 8,493 seconds.

Peace
PK

A big congrats to Cris Barrett. He laid down the fastest time in the AM, GS and nailed 2nd overall. Adam Winston held the top spot for a while and ended up around 6th or so.

A big congrats to Civ for stepping up to the Pros and skating well all weekend.

Jackmam skated great and It was nice to see him take the AM overall award. Mitchell made his 2nd run count and took 1st. in the GS today.

Ramon locked up 1st. overall in the Pros

Katie took home a 2nd in the GS today (I think) It rained most of the day and we made due between drops getting 2 runs each in all the events. The Pros and Women had to run both the Special & GS today.

It was another successful event with the usuual frustrating hickups. Way to go everyone especially the Canucks moving up there, EH!

After the storm on Friday, we had a good saturday with clouds but also a lot of sun.
Today, we had a lot of hopes and everybody was excited to race the special courses setted up in the night. But constant light rain kill the whole afternoon and the bowl session.
So tomorrow, let's hope to have enough time to finished at least the special qualifications.

Here's an express gallery of pictures of Saturday:

Flavio Badenes · Post by **Flavio Badenes** » Sat May 26, 2007 9:00 am

Hi there,
I am sorry to inform that after waitng until 14:00 yesterday to decide if we were going or not. We have decided not to go to Paris due to the bad weather.
I have no words to describe how difficult it was for me, after weeks of planning and training, to make that decision. Arrrggghhhhh!!!!
Anyways, I will see you all in Hannover.
Best of luck from The Dutch Team.

John Dillon · Post by **John Dillon** » Sat May 26, 2007 8:05 am

Perhaps one day I will make it there....anyways, Cabbage & I will be throwing down a longboard jam at Lansdowne Skate Park in Baltimore at the same time as your race and we will set a banked slalom course as well but w/o use of a timer this time. We will pause for a moment to salute the racers in Paris. Have fun!

Claude Regnier · Post by **Claude Regnier** » Fri May 25, 2007 7:13 pm

Okay, it's Friday evening and the rain and lightning just hit us hard. Gary, Flu, Micheal (Sweden) and his two boys amongts other we're practising.

When the storm hit the wind was strong and some of the large tents fliped as others began to be fastened and secured. We made it to the museum out of the rain then headed to the metro rather then walk to our appartment.

Well that's what we thought. The metr near our appartment was shut down. Must of had to do with the storm. Sure we'll find out later.

Rain is forcast for everyday this weekend so let's keep our fingers crossed.

Safe travels to everyone still driving in for the race.

Pardon my language, but Scandinavian Airlines are such a buch of fuckin assholes. All flights on friday 25:th are cancelled due to union conflict.

Hopefully we'll find something else, but at the moment at least 6 swedes are stuck in swiiden, so if we don't show up at least you know why...
