Heiko will have them in about 2 weeks...so you can always lend me yours - you won't race in slalom Worlds anyway

It would be nice if you could ship the 66mm Zzags (I didn't knew they're heavy...)

Thx in advance!

Thanks once again. I'm waiting and want test it ....

Heiko has them at the concretewave shop. http://concretewave.de/

By the way I was gonna give your wheels to Janis but he said he didn't have room/was overweight. I guess I gotta ship yours as well.

thanks to all those I met at the resplendent, race zurich!!
Franco Di Giorgio

It was nice to meet and race with everbody - Silvio (get well soon ), Dupont family, Sam, Czech guys (with their beer ), Berlin crew with their leader Schutz, ‘’Pavel’’ crew, Di Giorgio, locals and all the others and of course Thiago – slalom monster from far away Brasil!

It’s hard to remember the last time when we could experience such a strong womens category (Worlds 2008 I guess?) and of course so many fast and fearless juniors - Manuel, Marc, Simon , Julian and many others – I hope to see at least some of them racing in the Worlds

Congrats to all the winners ! ! !

Thanks to Ramon, Chris Hart, Jojo, Assanee, Pascal and others involved in organization process

Nice champ, the best peoples and friends. Thanks.

Please Michael Dup. photo podium, AAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUU

Cheers

Congratulations to all..... Yayyyyyy Kathrin & Dom!!!!!!! You make Donald & Pavel proud!
Lots of females skaters there..... Yayyyyyy again!
Really nice pics & videos Sam, as always! Thank you.

Wow you used the ranking part through the excelmate program... Nice! You are then second in the world with live reporting from a slalom race I believe. Too bad you didn't get the trackmate to shoot in the right numbers, but perhaps next time. Was it the USB converter that didn't work?

Anyways, there seems to be some data missing and some errors that have been pointed out above. Could someone please send me a complete excel spread sheet with the correct results so that I can correct the errors. Thank you.

Congratulations to all the racers and champions!

OK, here's the update after the third run for the top 10 riders:



/Jani

some old memories below



the rear of the car says pavel and yes,again,pavel rules the euros


DOMINIK KOWALSKI OVERALL EUROPEAN CHAMPION 2010
KATHRIN SEHL OVERALL EUROPEAN CHAMPION 2010

dom no training at all-more than impressive
kathrin injured with severe back pain,started training for a few times,got taken out by the docs,still enters a contest and takes it all

both still skate because its fun,no pressure,pure fun and also highlighting the pavel attitude.

the whole team wants to salute you.


chris schütz-du geile sau du!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

homer-voll der porno onkel...........................................

We did a 3rd round for the top 10 racers that changed the top rankings slightly. Have a look!

rmn

I just read on the rankings that Thiago Gardenal placed 2nd on the GS, together with his 3rd on the Hybrid this is an excellent result for him.
Like I said two years ago, it was just a question of time before a Brazilian skater would place well in the races. I also dare to say now that it is just a question of time before we have an all Brazilian podium, just write down my words...

Here's the (almost) final results for GS (after two runs):



I'd like to congratulate Thiago for his second place. Wow, also, what an improvement between the first and second run! Chris Schütz also gets an honorable mention getting into top 5 almost taking out GS specialist Chris Hart.

/Jani

I know Sven but here in Amsterdam he placed very well already.



What I also see is that the schools are becoming a good way to deliver fast riders!!! haha!!!

Jani Chris Schütz was in Amsterdam last year and impressed everyone with a very efficient technique. I am glad to see that he placed so well.

CONGRATS CHRIS WELL DONE !!!!

tja flavio, the raw diamant chris went through a solid berlin school to get the right shape ...hehehehe !!!!!!

Congratulations to your double victory so far Ramon!

That's because it was updated before our time keeper Raoul corrected the entered numbers. (They were typed in manually)

Still very cool to be right up there with the very best!
I see he made it through the round of 16 too. Go for it Chris!

Here's the qualifying results for TS:

Very interesting to see a completely unknown rider Chris Schütz, making into third place, leaving riders like Hart, Kuzmins, Baumann, Gustavs, Fiala, Stefka, Dupont & Dupont in the dust behind. Wow!!

It'll be very interesting to see these guys fighting it out in the upcoming finals!



/Jani

/Jani

i would be stoked for christoph
otherwise if that mistake is real,oh my god......
it seems like its real
only the organizer(ramon) could solve this problem with some clarifying words...

But what happened here?





/Jani

Close race! Top 7 all within 0.1 seconds!!



ps. Fantastic race statistics by Marcus Seyffarth!

I checked the top 16 and couldn't see Janis there, so Yes, I assume they didn't make it in time.

75 € might seem expensive but with Brixlegg at 150 € and WC at 100 €, 75 € is very reasonable, after all it is an European Championship race.

Jani Soderhall wrote:of course it (also) depends on what is in the package, ie meals and t-shirts, etc

Good to know you will make it open, and tight ... i am sure we will be able to deal a qualification slot for those who have a late landing...

The entry fee to the World Championship is 100 EUR. The entry fee to Brixlegg is 150 EUR. Then entry fee for the European Championship of 75 EUR is not high. The boys from Latvia and Lithuania will not agree with me. They aren´t willing to pay more than 50 EUR ...

Okay guys, I guess you've convinced me and the option of offering a harder and less hard course makes it much more understandable for me.

Now I just have to figure out the entry fee.

Right now we have €60 AM / €90 Pro so the logical consequence for Open would be €75. What do you think?

I need to know soon for inscription purposes and calculation of budget.

rmn

Yes Guillaume, It is the same idea which I wrote... EC or WC = harder slaloms.

Open class is a + in the 2010 rules (even if it can mean there will not be any WorldRanking for a long time, considering all the work it will need...), and we must keep TS hard in higher status races.
Racers can expect something near the low limit for bigger races -WC, EC or Worlds - (NB : ISSA 2010 Cone Spacing Suggestion: 1.5m to 2.5m).
Then, it will automatically encourage racer who can't make it in a high status race to take part in lower ones... It can trend to more local races, better/harder main races...
