Ok we are done with changes for the 2010 ranking. I think we have taken care of most of the things. This last round did not produce any more fixes so that is a good sign. I will re-calculate a new version of the ranking anyway only to be sure and then it's a wrap. The 2010 ranking will be the offici...

The 7th Annual Dovercourt Open is also the Canadian Nationals and has been since 05 or 06. This has always been at least a Main or a Major. It is the biggest race for most Canadians to attend. It should always be regarded as such. If competitors from all around choose not to attend then they miss o...

Hans Koraeus

What I can not understand is why points for the National Championships awarded are worth less then an Outlaw event . I don't see any National Championship in your list...hmm maybe you mean the Can/Am? Can/Am has Main Status Da Farm has Prime status. And still they give the same points for a first p...

Hans Koraeus

Ok Petr,

I will mark you as PRO for 2011. After the Jan 31 Deadline for the 2010 ranking.

Meaning you will compete for the "Pro Rookie Title" for 2011.

Is it normal that in the World Rankings, the Men Pro and Women categories display the 4 year ranking while the Men Am, Boys, and Girls categories seem to display the current season? Yes that's the way it is setup for the "official world rankings". The idea is that these are the ones you want to pus...

Hans Koraeus

I think there might be the following mistake with my results.. At Grenoble I placed 5,7,11, so that, as I understand it, 5,7 should be counted towards my ranking. At the moment I'm rated as 7,11 for Grenoble. Could you check that out please? 7:th Place SPC -- OK 11:th Place Giant -- OK 5:th Place T...

Hans Koraeus

Thanks Janis, I will add the women disciplines for next update. But the three disciplines are there. It's just that when you look on your "racer homepage" you only see the two best results that are counted into the ranking. If you go to the "event homepage" you will see all the disciplines and class...

Hans Koraeus

Are Paula Kalliokoski and Sj Paula Kalliokoski the same person?
I see both in the racer database...

John, we are missing you in the ranking. Let's see some Master points this year.

Hans Koraeus

I will soon make a new update with all the changes above. Concerning Grenoble for Baumann. All is correct except for that "Special" slalom then. This is what I have as results for that discipline... 8 Christophe Baumann GER 11,583 9 Thiago Gardenal BRA 11,667 Can someone check it up with the Grenobl...

Hans Koraeus

On the Dutch ranking I see the name of Igor Lerchundi Mugica, he is NOT Dutch he is a Spanish skater. Fixed now. Will be updated for next ranking update (1.5) Also the name of Cyril Schardijn is missing from the only Dutch ranking She is not in the 2010 season ranking because she has not competed t...

Hans Koraeus

...but decisions were made and they should be followed or risk ruining the credibilty of the organization. I'm sorry Neil but you got it all wrong.

Hans Koraeus

Sorry for my comment... eh no, actually I’m not sorry at all. Believe me this is my very, very diplomatic version. And for the last 2 years slalomranking.com have been the Corky’s ranking and not the official ISSA world ranking so I guess it has given me some sort of a ”wild card”. Actually I think ...

Hans Koraeus

Reminds me of the schema I did some 5 years ago for... Skateboard and Slalom Assocoations . It would have been interesting for ISSA to gather info of how far different countries have come in their skateboard association development. That other could then use as means to move forward on their own hom...

Hans Koraeus

Corky, As a representative of the BOD, I see value in your ranking system and want to facilitate continuation of a national ranking. We are working to determine what is the best way to fund that effort. Joe Funny, I have this as a point on my development list. Actually now all statuses are in the i...

Hans Koraeus

Background In 2009 the ISSA World Ranking was down during the whole season. Thanks to some brave ranking supporters we were able to make the effort of calculating a final ISSA World Ranking for 2009. The work with the World Ranking, and the vision for it, is larger than a few volunteers. It is goin...

Hans Koraeus

Well Kalliokoski, welcome to the Masters Ranking. You will be in in there for the next update 1.3. Very soon.

Hans Koraeus

That system you are all talking about is what was used a long time ago and the idea was to get away from it. Because it is not fair that you get a lot of points just beacuse you happen to live nearby where there are a lot of skilled racers. And it skews even more that those racers then never need to...

Hans Koraeus

The worst part is that the man behind it is in ISSA BOD itself. ;-) That is why I want an official statement from ISSA what they are all thinking about. And looking at the sponsors of that ranking says something as well I guess. If that is good or bad publicity is up to everyone to decide themselves.

Hans Koraeus

I would not be a bad idea that to be an official pro you have to register as PRO for ISSA. Only pros need to register and a pro racer commitee will grant or not the person a ISSA PRO status. Then a part is up to the event organizers - To race in a pro class the event organizer could or could not dem...

Hans Koraeus

Seems like that has already been fixed in version 1.2. I will soon make a new update 1.3.

Hans Koraeus

I have not been very updated on the ongoing slalom scene this year and I see now on the 2009 Pro Ranking reults that many maybe have had a hard time getting a good overview of the ranking status situation. It's very important for the ranking and for the racers themselves to have a good view of where...

Hans Koraeus

Yes, A big Thank You to the following persons who have made a big effort in getting in event results for the 2009 World Ranking or other help or motivation boost.

Hans Koraeus

Rick, There is no "bad blood" between me and ISSA BOD. I'm just trying to make an effort to see if there is any motivation/plan for the ranking in 2010. It's no coincident I checked in to the slalom community at the end of the year to see what could be done for the 2009 ranking but as much to see if...

Hans Koraeus

The vision is (still) to handle both calendar, event info, event registration and event results on www.slalomranking.com. It already has all the parts needed because they are needed for handling the World Ranking itself. I just have to convince ISSA BOD of this and I don't know how many years it wil...

Hans Koraeus

What i hope for next season is that organisers will use the latest version of Excelmate. It has a funktion that automatically imports results into ranking There is no such thing, yet. But it could be done I guess. You could export data into hundreds of different rankings but it will not help unless...

Hans Koraeus

One final question, just to make sure I do understand: So if sound like a racer who fits into more than one category (such as Masters and Amateur, as Rick does) doesn't have to worry that one division will "rob" his/her points from the other division--which is a good thing. If they qualify for both...

Hans Koraeus

- It says the system will automatically place you in the correct class. However, I am listed as a "Master" because of my age, but did not compete in the Masters class once this year...how will that work? If there is no Master class run specifically the age 45+ racers from the Open/Am class will be ...

Hans Koraeus

And let's say 45+ racer Gib Lewis gets 6th place in the Am race, and places higher than any other 45+ racer. Would he receive 6th-place Am points AND 1st-place Masters points, just by virtue of his age? Yes this is correct. Assuming that no Master Class is run separatly. Same idea for junior classe...

Hans Koraeus

Hmm, if you guys want a world ranking placement as a Christmas present you better hurry up sending in results...

No use calculating anything until we have all Major and Main events registered.

Hans Koraeus

Ok, you elders. I'm back to see if we can get all results together for 2009 and calculate 2009 World Rankings. So check out if your ranking age is registered correctly here to have a chance to get points in the 2009 Masters Ranking. Concerning Master ranking discussions above Just to clarify how it ...

Hans Koraeus

For instance, how do you handle results when there are no ISSA classes, but only an A/B/C? If there are A/B/C/... classes that is handled just as a big Open class. I presume the classes are determinded by a qualifcation. The final results for the ranking with 16 racers in each class wil be... 1 1:s...

Hans Koraeus

Well, well, That's what you get for being away from the forum for 8-9 months. And me who thought I was the one who felt uncomfortable with posting here after all this time. :-) Well no worries. The first part was not so important. Just talking shit as the title said. :-) The second part I have a ver...

Hans Koraeus

Talking shit Oh, this feels strange. Haven't been reading or writing in this forum since feb 2009. After like 5-6 years or more of a very intense life since the start of this very forum it feel strange indeed. Unfortunatly this has become a quite depressing forum. Maybe it was before as well.

Hello all you elders. Turn up the volume on your hearing aids.

If you have any friends who want to join the Masters ranking for 2009 help them out by entering their birth years here.

Hans Koraeus

i wasnt going to post on this again, but Corky that's so fuckin ridiculous, who are you leaving off, the Queen and the United fucking Nation? How about this? If you get hosed, then complain to the organizer, If they blow you off tell the ISSA and then the ISSA can DO something other than type a fuc...

Hans Koraeus

When something is wrong some people just love to turn their anger on ISSA. It's so easy. And funny enough most of these people don't think ISSA is worth anything. But why then bother complaining at something which is nothing. Well because ISSA is something important and should be something important...

Hans Koraeus

Don't know if this is the right place for the discussion but what the... If there are any complaints towards an event what so ever... 1. Complain to the event organizer. 2. If not solved complain to the World Ranking Marshals/Coordinators They are the governing body for the ISSA World Ranking status...

Hans Koraeus

All the Rookie rankings are on www.slalomranking.com if someone has missed that. Hidden in the results section.

But... there are some small corrections before the final 2008 rankings can be written into the history books.

Hans Koraeus

Since I started the World Ranking in 2003 I have always had the World cup as an option in front of me. For me it has been quite clear how to do it but I preferred working on the World Ranking idea that was aimed for all the slalom racers more than the World Cup that is aimed for a smaller group. The...

Hans Koraeus

Hmm, I see there has been som progress on the ISSA logo examples. But I still prefer being conservative and stand by the orginal simple one. Even though you can make small changes to make it feel modern. But this idea that "it has to be a slalom skater beacuse otherwise you don't understand what it ...
