thanks, there are many different ones but I found the right one. Just had to find it all in English.

I believe it's the Mercure...

Mike Cividino · Post by **Mike Cividino** » Sat May 13, 2006 5:22 pm

what is the name of the hotel?, the list on the old site gives many many hotels in the area. I would like to know the closest one so that I can book a room.

Thanks.

o.k. i called the hotel. please talk to nicole höner for your special rate.
i think normally you get the room for 45.-
sorry, but i talked with them and asked for a better rate.
i think you get the room for 39.-
it´s a good hotel and i think the price is o.k.
otherwise check www.hrs.de for cheaper hotels

and don´t forget your skimboards. i hear that donald will shape some competition boards.
for more information ask donald.
hey donald i´m interested in one of your boards

Detlef,

What is the name of the contact at the hotel, and their telephone number.

When we call the hotel they say they know nothing about the skateboarding race and discount.

What is the special rate?

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Thu May 11, 2006 6:30 pm

hello heiko,
for the third time in this thread. use the old website from last year.
www.skateboardworldcup.com and use the accomodation button to find to the hotel.
dete.

thanks for all the offers of help for our website.
a friend of mine will help me with that. so we need a few days.

Heiko Schöller · Post by **Heiko Schöller** » Thu May 11, 2006 5:15 pm

Hey Dete

What is the name from the hotel last year we where all in. I want to book it again. Is that the one with the special rate??? But hey 39€ is OK although.

Jadranko Radovanovic · Post by **Jadranko Radovanovic** » Thu May 11, 2006 12:59 pm

o.k. i try to actualize the website. the only problem is the money.

I can do it for 500 Eur ?

J-Rad

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Thu May 11, 2006 8:39 am

if 39.- euro is the rate for that hotel, it seems to be cheap for a hotel like that.
i try to contact the manager and ask, why nobody knows about our agreement for the racers. but, 39.- is cheap. if you want to try it cheaper, use the internet portal
www.hrs.de and search for hotels in hannover. if you book in the center it´s 10 minutes by subway to the expo area.
o.k. i try to actualize the website. the only problem is the money.

don´t worry. it´s normal. i was in morro bay two years ago. the only german slalomer. and i´m not the best one. so be happy that we have the worlds in europe this year.
everybody is welcome. they decide by there own.
for the future i hope that the world championship in slalom skateboarding will switch between europe an america.
and hopefully for teh ranking there will be an extra status that attract racer to move there ass.
i mean asses from all over the world.
and ...... we need a guideline for organizers, so it´s for sure that a world championship is a big event in evry case. spectators, prize money, race organisation, race courses etc.

back to hannover. we can do a skimboard gs. a good idea with the pavel foam skimboards.
hey donald you can use the shape of my board. it´s a sandy beach board from hawaii and it´s fast.

Sven Lippert · Post by **Sven Lippert** » Fri May 05, 2006 3:55 pm

ahhhhh donald/steve what i forgot to say and didn`t want to write in the original thread cause everybody was pleased not to comment !!! i also feel sorry for the situation with brixlegg even when i know that it will turn out to the nr. 1 contest this year ... i know from personal talks, how much engagement and power you guys already put in the organisation and i even know that the big names are the salt in the soup but anyway i`m sure you guys will have loads of fun ... rock on in paris and we see us in hannover !!!!!!!!

Sven Lippert · Post by **Sven Lippert** » Fri May 05, 2006 3:45 pm

... no giant anyway - saturday and sunday is okay ... donald/steve we need PAVEL skimboards ... i only have an old wooden one but want a foamy now

Carsten Pingel · Post by **Carsten Pingel** » Fri May 05, 2006 2:40 pm

Hmmm...so no need for my new Pavel GS Board !

But Saturday and Sunday is for sure ?

Steve Hinzen · Post by **Steve Hinzen** » Fri May 05, 2006 2:00 pm

no giant slalom

That's another bummer for today (personally reffering to the latest knews that some top-ranked boarders will not compete in Brixlegg).

Let's have fun anyway.
so...

where is the beach?
where is the beef?
where are the bitches?

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Fri May 05, 2006 1:40 pm

hey guys,

sorry that i didn´t answer for so long. we have problems here in hannover. no giant slalom. sorry.

the website www.skateboardworldcup.com is from the last year. there are no informations for this year on that website. please read here in the forum.

Paul, you can book for that hotel with a special rate. only say, that you are in world cup competition.

Jani, i need the time measuring system

Donald, you will take care for your team member from the (small) island

You find cheap hotels under www.hrs.de or book a cheap etap hotel.
please use the internet. we have hundreds of hotels in each categorie

Competition only on saturday and sunday.
Side Event. We work on a Skimboard Competition. I hope you know what i mean.
Beach, Sun, Water, Girls, Action

Watch out for more to come in the next days

Mike Cividino · Post by **Mike Cividino** » Wed May 03, 2006 5:42 pm

where is the best and cheapest place to stay for this race? Ill be travelling with my girlfriend.

We are not opposed to floor space.

Thanks.

Carsten Pingel · Post by **Carsten Pingel** » Wed May 03, 2006 2:39 pm

what about the registration, Dete ? There's only the 2005 registration available ?

Donald Campbell · Post by **Donald Campbell** » Mon May 01, 2006 9:02 pm

we got it sorted out ramon see you soon!!!!

Ramón Königshausen · Post by **Ramón Königshausen** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 7:55 pm

Hum, you should have booked earlier. My flight only costs €78.- all inclusive.

rmn

Donald Campbell · Post by **Donald Campbell** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:28 pm

guess that sounded like an invitation,right?

Donald Campbell · Post by **Donald Campbell** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:28 pm

there are airports in cologne and düsseldorf,paul.why try to go to hannover directly?
your whole german team is located at those two airports.
you know that you surely get a lift and a sleeping place here.
so why bother to ask for a flight to hannover?
eh?

Paul Price · Post by **Paul Price** » Sun Apr 30, 2006 5:07 pm

I am trying to get a flight to Hannover, but they are expensive because of the Soccer World cup.

1. Is there a another airport nearby to check?

2. Will there be a race on the Friday? Or is it Saturday and Sunday only?
http://www.skateboardworldcup.com/ says it is 3-5 June

3. The link on accomm goes to the hotel. Is there a special rate organised for racers?
Do we have to call direct?

Hope to see a lot of you there!!!! cheers, Paul Price, back in London

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Sat Apr 15, 2006 12:05 pm

hey donald,

i know how steep a gs should be. there is only this one road from last year. i try everything,
to get this road. my favourite gs was morrow bay 2004. no spectators but a lot of fun to ride.

Donald Campbell · Post by **Donald Campbell** » Fri Apr 14, 2006 7:30 am

hey dete
make sure the road is fast enough for a gs
a bit of scare is always good,gs should be fast and challenging not nice

Steve Hinzen · Post by **Steve Hinzen** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 6:44 pm

The roads near the Dutch pavillon are not steep enough for GS.
Last year's road for GS could work also on the half of its full length. The small road coming from the right side could work as runout.

Carsten Pingel · Post by **Carsten Pingel** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 1:21 pm

what about that nice road where this spacy dutch pavillion is ? That could work for a nice GS ?!

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Thu Apr 13, 2006 1:06 pm

there is only one road where we can do a real giant and it´s a big problem to get this road. but we work on it. there is another road, but not that steep. this one is possible too. no problem to get this road, but a little bit boring, or some one is a genius in setting the course there. maybe, we will a allow motorskateboards on this course.

Don't forget the American photographer. I was there last year and am thinking about coming again.

Detlef, Mary-Beth and I plan on attending the event and so far it looks like we may be getting in with Donald. We are seasrching for round-trip fares as we have had our Paris hotel booked for a while.

We are planning on going to Uster, Paris and Hanover if it is affordable as cash will be tight. We are looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Jani, I sometimes have to work, when others sleep... ( and I don't feel guilty to sleep during others work !

)

Anyway, I had an excellent WE at Hannover, organization was perfect despite of the rain ( and the scary-way-back to Paris ). I wish I could make the travel again...

Thanks Det' for the informations !

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 2:11 pm

information about the expo sommerfest, the place for our world cup competition, you can find under

www.expo-sommerfest.de

there is a download on that site, called Download Sommerfest Kalender.
Check this Kalender on Side 13. Funny.

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 1:53 pm

hello frederic,

the idea of the shuttle was a one way shuttle, so people from the states can plan there trip to europe. for example. if they are interested to compete in more than one event, they will travel to paris, shuttle to hannover and maybe to grüningen and then fly back to the states.

dan gesmer will travel from paris to hannover, so we will give him a ride that he can lower the cost for travelling.

for the shuttle we ask vw. sometimes they do that with their cars. but the said no for this season. so at the moment we are not sure. who is interested in a shuttle from paris to hannover? (just one way)

we try our best

And, by the way. Thank you Donald for supporting our Event

Detlef Rehbock · Post by **Detlef Rehbock** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 6:57 pm

O.K. we have some new informations. The Contest will be on the same road as last year. I think we don´t use the website, because it´s money that we don´t have.
at the moment, we have only coca cola as a sponsor. by the way, thanks to coca cola for big support in last year and this year.

for accomodation we have special rates in the mercure hotel close to the race track. when you book there, just say you compete in the world cup at the expo sommerfest.
another, very cheap option is the expo camp on the contest area. you can sleep there in big tents, bring your own tent etc. it´s cheap and you get food and it´s a secured area. for a shower you have to ask skaters from the hotel, you know what i mean.

there will be lots of music on different stages. we have some fabulous bands, but i think only the germans know them. here is the playlist.

Ronan Keaton
Sasha
German Superstars Tobias Regner and Mike Leon Grosch
Revolverheld
Sportfreunde Stiller
Madsen

But, there will be a Stage very close to our Startramp. And there will be a nice band from the Guys that helped last Year as Conejudges. Do you remember them?
So we will have Live Music for the Finals.
Cool?

We are working on more.

By the way, are there some Sponsors from the Skate Business. everything helps.
Heiko from Concrete Wave will help with some Stuff
Jani will help too.
Somebody else?
