Second day special slalom. This was the day that we could have had some hopes for Jani. Special slalom is more his thing and the course setting was almost as tight as in the old european days. I.e. it was a perfect one for him. It was a little bit to hard for many others though and there was only 16...

If I remember correctly it seems like Gianluca had stayed at Ridolis place on his way up to the competition. Ridoli is not very happy about the course settings these days. They don't fit the old european boards that are made for tighter courses. Though this may be correct the good news are that ther...

Well, well. It starting to get really deep here. Let's sum it all up. Whatever cones are better than no cones. Turner cones are better than whatever cones. End of story!? P.S. Etienne.

So once again Jani is the only swede in an international slalom competition. Let's hope there will be changes on this for next year. Well, once again he have not been standing on his skate since Morro Bay. Maybe he thinks he's too old to practice. That he has done enough of this in his youth and wil...

Jani after his qualification ride... "I didn't have a chance! I was 1,5 seconds behind after the first run and 1 second behind in the second run.” This was not a discipline for Europeans. It seems like no European made it into the final. Many were not satisfied with the course setting. The first fou...

There will be one Swede to enter the FCR World Championships in Avila Beach and Morro Bay, CA (October 11-13). Our "old" european champ Jani Söderhäll will make the effort to travel over there and take the pulse of the american slalom scene. Even though his physical shape is not on top rumours say h...

Welcome to the Swedish slalom skateboarding forum. The idea is to have this forum for all skate slalom activities with swedish connections in any way. It could be about local competitions, where to buy slalom equipment, other swedish skateboard/slalom web sites, general gossip or results from Swedes...
