Count some folks from BERLIN in .... pray for good weather and lets have fun !!!

what we need to know in advance is definetly what kind of wood you use for the ramp, cause we have to make sure that we have used the correct hardware for our trucks ... hehehehe !!!!!!! DO OR DIE

Just to let you know: It's very unlikely to have two Prime events on one and the same weekend. Namely, there is another Prime candidate scheduled for April 19: Praha (they applied Jan 29)

Good Luck with the race.

Can you tell me what kind of chalk you will be using? This is so important and is something most race organisers forget to tell racers.

;-)

we will see from the # of racers and from the quality of the racers attending this contest how prime it was or how unprime.
michael-we use white chalk amyway and we eat it before we announce the racers.
all cones used during the race have been blessed by the archbishop of cologne.
our ramps will not have any safety tape on the sides by the way.
to cope with that we will make one for the gs which is double that high..

Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2008 5:32 pm
by Ramón Königshausen
Yeah, we'll take this into consideration too. The expected participation will play a role while making our choice who will deserve prime status.

Maybe it'll be possible to have two independent primes on the same weekend. We'll see.

What about your GOG race in fall - anything planned yet?

some quick updates:
we will have a physiotherapist at the race site all 2 days.
this is good news for everybody who has a problem.
he will massage for free and i think it would be a nice gesture if anybody
who takes advantage of this service would give the man a few dineros for that
awesome service
in case of rain we will have an indoor spot to run the thing
heiko stepped up for the free shirts,thanks go to concrete wave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the big ramp will have an exact height of 2,98m
