Next race : January 22th 2008, CYBER SLALOM jam session

hey fred

poidum and no pavement this time
congrats from dem tschörmannsss


ahhhh i see vince dqued by the group

he's too fast anyway hehehehe

go VINZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ go!!!!!!!!

Thanks Don' !
I had to work the night before the race so no sleep for me... next time, Silver or Gold medal !!!

Fred-Pavel-french-connection !

see you in Cadwell... hopefully....

HUYNH BACH SAC Frédéric wrote:next time, Silver or Gold medal !!!

no way

hum hum... !! !! !!
DQed by the group is clearly not what I would say!

yes I was late (I was principally helping my roomates to move...)
but the sun was bright and I finally managed to come and skate

Before last sunday we always accepted people to enter a race as long that the qualif rounds weren't finished (but if during second round = only one timed run)...

but this time, sadly a few were a bit disapointed that my training run (it was OK to do one before my timed run) was better than the fastest time of the day. So I finally had no other times... and continue to skate with the buddies

I launched this races 2 years ago and people still have fun and now it works quite well with or without me now.
I don't wanna fight, so it's not a problem to let the points to those who want so much to keep them for themselves

The Pirate will continue anyway,
the important things is to skate and bring more people to slalom

Vinzzz, if you think me, Pat or Fred did that for "points", you did not understand nothing !

Not really the place to talk about that but you shoudln't join Patrick to this bullshit!

bad bad Vincent, I didn't get that poor little boys were in the cold during the morning
so it's really not cool at all to arrive late,
especially if I've done special KGB training made of stairs climbing and carrying pieces of furniture and boxes...

Even if we insisted to announce that a Giant was to begin at 14:00 so people could come only in the afternoon...
it was time to change our kind and friendly habits to make an example!

The new moral order is on his way in France and even slalom skateboarders are proud of this new times behind our President.

What a dangerous troubemaker am I! bad bad bad Vincent

Giant started exactly at 14, like it was scheduled

The whole idea of not allowing Vince's time to stand is lame. I really can't believe you guys denied him racing if he was there on time. Points or not.

Simply LAME!

I guess we probably could have worked out something better...

Admittedly, Vincent did arrive after everybody's third and last run and it didn't seem quite fair to just let him win without giving anybody else another chance...

I was asked if we should count Vincent's time, and I gave my opinion and said no. If we had, I considered I deserved at least another run which quite honestly I didn't feel like taking. I also told people I wasn't exactly the right person to ask considering the consequences of such a decision.

We could have simply done more runs, like take the eight first times and give them two extra runs, or even do another course... but nobody brought that up and some people were pretty eager to put everything away and to get over with the race, which I can understand... We had been there since 10/11h, setting up the timer, setting up the courses, it was 3h30, it was cold, people were tired, they still had to give out prizes and put everything away...

But whatever... this probably should have been discussed a little more seriously at the time. It wasn't up to me, it wasn't a big race, there will be more races and honestly it's not such a big deal...

hey guys
above all the pirate races are ,meant to be fun
never forget the original intention


you going in the wrong direction

i had people at my races who were not good enough for the course and in a real race they would have dqued.i didn't dq them so that they had a valid time to look at and to encourage them for more.

see,we took it easy too...
and if dom would have showed up late and beating everybody else who already had a few tries,well.....shame on the rest.

the germans wouldn't do what you have done


are we so different from each other?

i think not


merry x-mas to the trocadero bunch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hum Allan runs weren't finished at all want I arrived... race was still on!
(and I was said I could have a run even if only my test try was taken as a time)

Now let's move on something else!

Donald is right, and we set some objectives at the beginning of the year that Pirates should be more opened to new people, and not only racing for racing... that's not really what happens so let's try to remember this now!

wow
it s so funny

where did someone see Vinzzz could not race ?

He arrived at 3.30 PM (race started at 10 AM) and could skate untill cones were take off.
He had prices (swaggg) like he was FIRST (AEXEQUO with Pat), a wheels set, everybody else go home with one bushing and one pad !!!
When I posted day times, I always mentionned Vinzzz did the best time on his first training run.
He had runs he managed to have before the timing systems was take off (here I have to say one thing - thanks - for people WHO HELP ALL THE DAY for cone judging, and time keeping, by approx 0°C!)

Our decision was symbolic only, just for Pirates points, voted by Pirate core, and motivated by the fact Vinzzz was not here the day long.
If everybody don t care about our local ranking and "points", why everybody s shouting???


edit : Vinzzz, when you arrive, there was only two riderz who did not take their third runs : Thibaut and Flavien.
Pat was on the first racer on each race this day.

Vincent Berruchon wrote:we set some objectives at the beginning of the year that Pirates should be more opened to new people, and not only racing for racing... that's not really what happens so let's try to remember this now!

Riderz subject

there's a few point wrong again about details
but don't you forget that during the first season I was often nearly alone setting race, shooting the whole day and managing the timing system, results and website during the night... (of course I wasn't alone, David and JS were active too)

and this time I wasn't sleeping but helping friend and came when I could!
What a lame symbol and childish reactions!
That's not orginal Pirate spirit...

Considering all said and done above, are you guy running two BIG events in 2008 (Paris and Grenoble). Just for the record, send in your status application now because a lot of other organizer has. There’s basically only one main remaining.

Yours fastest
Santa Cohen

OK Peter
Jani and JS were to send it these days... seems it stay somewhere in the tubes but you'll have it really soon.

Let's move on something else
and remind good old memories with the PSWC 2007 videos

NCDSA and RIDERZ Challenge

http://www.riderz.net/index.php?option= ... &Itemid=19



Pour la prochaine épreuve des courses skateboard mensuelles parisiennes, l'association RIDERZ vous propose une journée spéciale CYBER SLALOM. Les cyber slalom sont des épreuves "standardisées" définies par des règles et des parcours facilement reproductibles (généralement sur terrain plat) permettant ainsi aux skateurs de la planète de comparer leurs performances facilement avec des classements publiés sur Internet. Ces épreuves un peu techniques sont aussi une excellente occasion de progresser pour les débutants.

Au programme:
10h: installation, inscriptions et débuts des échauffements
11h: Cyber Slalom NCDSA. Le site nord-californien est à l'origine du standard du genre: cyber challenge NCDSA http://www.ncdsa.com/cyber_slalom.asp
14h: Cyber Slalom Riderz.
Plus accessible, le Cyber Riderz reste physique avec ses 40 cônes, les détails et classements ICI: http://www.riderz.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2918

Le spot: Cours de Vincennes. Accessible depuis le métro Nation dans le XXème (M° 1-2-6-9, RER A), le spot se situe sur le Cours de Vincennes, à main gauche en direction de la Portes de Vincennes, sur l'allée piétonne devant les grands magasins (Printemps, Casto...)

Comme d'habitude tout le monde est bienvenu. Des planches de tests seront disponibles pour ceux qui ne sont pas équipés. Prévoyez si possible casques et protections (casque obligatoire sur le slalom).

Next race on February 17th, probably a big giant slalom

Way to go, Patrick and Vinzzzz! When you have a chance, post some video!

Very fast times. Nice job!

Did you try out the excelmate program or did you do the old paper and pencil routine?

Thanks all... was a very good racing day...
although in spite of the "jam" format we had wanted to do, we didn't take that many more runs than normal (3 or 4 for some...)
with a little more serious and attention from everyone, I'm sure we could have done a lot more...

We're still using pens and paper...

I think Vinzzz is planning on using the excelmate program for the next race...

Times could have been faster but none of us were in a "recordbreaking" form and I had forgotten my hard wheels...

Will do better next time...

Marcus Seyffarth wrote:Very fast times. Nice job!

No test yes. I asked for but I suppose no one had tme to do it.
But I took the chrono at home after the race (It's Jani's, he lets us use his chrono), so I should at least try to test that for the next time.
Big problem will be more about having enough power for the computer during the next race, a giant lost in the fileds...

yup its a problem with power at small races where you don't have a power generator. And if you have a new expensive laptop with a fresh battery that would last a race, perhaps having it outdoors at a skateboard race is not the first thing you choose.

Anyways I was just curious if you had tried it. Please let me know if you do. I have some new exciting stuff regarding the program coming up soon.

Pirate race #4 take place this week-end (sunday 17th) in Plaisir (Yvelines, 78)
This will be a giant race only.

hum and we didn't test this time again...
It's probably better if Jani do it as one again he couldn't remember to bring the cable needed that I don't own

Hm, buy a second, spare, cable?

Hans Lucas wrote:Hm, buy a second, spare, cable?

Don't worry about it Hans. I brought a normal second, space cable for the giant, but Vincent also wanted me to bring a serial to USB adapter. It's a standard adapter which I haven't used since 2004, so it didn't strike my mind when I packed my stuff.

/Jani

If you decide to use it at the next race you don't have to spend time to upload results anymore - more time to skate (or time to buy that missing cable )!
