About 1/4 mile from the Derby Hill is a nice private road with an excellent surface that provided us with a great day of racing. The Derby Hill itself took a beating this winter and is not conducive for this year’s main farm event. We are moving the race back to Shady Lane where the surface is still in good shape and with a ramp, should make for a fun 30 second+ GS course.Down on The Farm, we had to go hide from a Boar, as it was chasing us o'er hill and dale. Good thing we had a lumber yard nearby to fence us in from that big ol' pig. Once we're over the ridge, and had the fencin' up, we could get down to some Skatin'. Oink.
You know how rare "real" Turners are Wes.....it's a find to see one wild in CT.Wesley Tucker wrote:That pic looks like one of those African Safari shots where Bawana just bagged the elusive Turner Banner.
Tway set the first 10 cones then I set (and reset, my first was too tight for everyone) the rest of the course.Wesley Tucker wrote:Hey, Tway, ummm, I got some bad news for you: the tight slalom course looks like one I would have set. I thought you had more imagination than that?
Nah, just one. Me and Martha Stewart have the same Parole Officer...imagine that!Wesley Tucker wrote:except Stepenak: he doesn't travel anymore. I guess those leg bracelets are a real hassle, huh, 13?
Please note that 4 of the top ten are over 40! Amazing! :PEric Brammer wrote:Please note that 4 of the top ten are under 18!
i also like the idea of having 2 courses as this will be my very first slalom race. the best i have done so far is setting up 16 cones in a parking lot on 6ft spacing.John Gilmour wrote:What seems cool is that so many new faces showed up. It looked like about 1/3 of the people were new. So strangers....come on down- you're welcome to share the stoke- after a single day I guarantee you won't feel like a stranger anymore- more like you've been reunited with old friends..(Well some of us are old).
The ball dam should be a good race- I think it is time to set a blisteringly fast pro level course and another mellower across the fall line course for newbies.
Newbies should get a look at what is possible on a board- and also see how fast one can progress from newbie to pro level.
I think it is still waaaay too cold for Black flies....so get on with it before it gets too late.
