See page 16 of the latest issue of Girl's Life Magazine (circulation 800,000) - for a short feature on Girl's 2002 FCR Series slalom champ Lauren Gordon. Note her nice reference to how slalom skateboarding is a lot like surfing and snowboarding.<br><img src="http://www.turnerdownhill.com/images/girls-life500.jpg">.

Well, Howard, if Lauren says (and she indeed does!) that slalom skateboarding is a lot like snowboarding, it’s got to be alpine snowboarding considering the importance of edge hold and absence of tricks in both slalom and alpine.
I practice, enjoy and preach both.

We picked up a copy yesterday. Sarah was excited to see Lauren in the magazine. It's got here pumped and asking "When are we going slalomin' Daddy?".

She wants to get Lauren to autograph it for her.

Hey,
I was so excited when I found my article in the magazine! Anyone got any ideas on how to spread the word of slalom to other girls around the WORLD?
Rock on!:grin:
