Hi, the train tickets are bought!
So see you there hopefully on Friday 25th at the Troca in the evening.

Is there an alternative programme in case of rain?

CU!

Ok Hans

About rain:
But we are lucky that the Trocadero dry really quickly as soon the rain stop. So even rainy days we managed to race each time.

But I will check taht we could use a skatepark improved recently with a roof so at least we could skate not to far.
(FOr the moment without big BIG money, in case of rain we've found nothing interesting to race indoor in Paris).

[Vincent Berruchon]

Hi,

I'm planning to be there to film, maybe also to slalom. Trocadéro ("340") is the spot where I first saw real-life skateboarding (slalom) in 1974 which inspired me for the rest of my life.....

Another Dutchman will surely join the competition (is there also an open/rookie race?)

See you there!

You'll be welcome in Paris Hans.
Trocadero is now a slalom world classic. After an unforgettable 2006 edition, you can expect another great edition for this 5th event thanks to our collaboration with the "Paris Festival Glisse" (the solid organization you know with more media coverage, animations...)

Hej Peter,
I'll be there before the race, too. Maybe we check out Troca the 25th (evening)?

[David Rudnianski]

There will be a Pro and an A.M. categorie. Fifth Birthday this year, evrybody has to come this time..........

[Vincent Berruchon]

For the moment, Giant should take place at Trocadero, but we're still working on another place.

Highest authorities have been contacted to support a longer spot just next to the Trocadero, but you know that we are forever suspected to threaten public order so nothing sure about that.

[David Rudnianski]

We'll have the PFG meeting in the begining of february, and we 'll try to tell you what's going on as soon as possible.

David.

[Claude Regnier]

MB and I will be tyring to make it again this year. As usual any info is greatly appreciated sooner then later.

We are looking forward to seeing you all again.

Hope you folks have a good year.

[David Rudnianski]

[Ramón Königshausen]

Uhm...ehm...no not really but right at the moment I'm working my a** off for school.

and well, my flight is also booked. Sa 26th 10:25 Paris Orly Airport....

btw. A good tuck and tactics is all you need in DH Racing.

rmn

[Marcus Seyffarth]

When can I sign in? My flight is booked! Looking forward to the event!

Same question as always, will the GS be at Troca if so, why not put it on the last day?

We practiced uphill yesterday so that team Sweden are ready for the finale thing after taking first and second. We haven't decided yet who needs step back and take third and fourth, but I'm sure our team manager will make a wise decision.

Ramon do you practice any or do you just sit around getting fat for the DH races?

[Ramón Königshausen]

Ramon, you understand that we cannot set the schedule according to the plane you want to take!

Sure, but asking a question never has cost anything.
Thanks for the information, Vinzz.

Are you setting up the schedule in the same order as last year; GS, TS, SS?

rmn

[Vincent Berruchon]

Dear organizers,

could you quickly guess what time the Pros will have take their first run on Saturday? I considered flying in from Berlin on Saturday morning. Arrival time would be 10:25 at Paris Orly Aéroport. Possible to make it to the Pro's GS qualifications?

rmn

Ramon, you understand that we cannot set the schedule according to the plane you want to take!
But here's a few precisions:
We'll probably ask all Amateurs and Girl racers to be at the Trocadero at 9:00.
Pro racers training probably won't begin before 12:00 but it's better to arrive before
because you'll have to validate your registration, get your racer pack and prepare your gear...

So, it should be OK for you to be at the Trocadero just in time from Orly Airport - but don't loose time.
Of course I encourage all the racers to arrive before that to be sure that everybody will be ready to race in time.

[Ramón Königshausen]

Well, I quickly checked on last year's schedule; Pro Giant Slalom Training begun at 15 o'clock.

I would really apreciate if you could set up a similar schedule for 2007.

This is a pre-announcement of the Paris Slalom World Cup to let you know that the dates...

MAY 26-27-28
(Saturday, Sunday, Monday)

...have been booked for the 2007 edition of Paris Slalom World Cup.

The new president of Riderz Association, Vincent Berruchon is leading the effort together with Guillaume St-Criq and with Alain Esnault on administration duties (like every year). Alain is also the president of the Regional Paris Skateboard Association (all skate and rollerskate in the region) and the president of the National Downhill Association - CND (of which slalom is a part). These two organizations are responsible for the event, outside of the slalom area (permits, food, electricity and coordination with other sports such as rollerskate & other etc). Alain is assisted on the skate side by Jean-Sébastien Dennebouy, the full time employee (!) of CND.

I'll do my duties during the event (probably as timing, race director, speaker - to be determined) but I'm not participating in organizational tasks leading up to the event.

More news from the race organization will follow when available.
