I'm there in '07 and will continue to be 'til I'm dead 'er can't skate anymore (or you guys kick me out) whichever comes first. The '06 Dagger race event was the first organized skate contest that I attended after a 24 year lay-off from boarding and you guys treated me real nice - I did okay too!

I am a DAGGER fan for life.

Jeff, I thought I heard something about your retirement (knew it couldn't be true)?? You're gonna' race right!?

I don't care what the status is. But what the hell, maybe we can attract a few more people and still keep the vibe the same. Either way is OK by me.

I like the 100-cone idea, too.

Laura, I hope you'll be wearing a bit more than just black socks... of course you did say Paris...,

I lived on Rue St Denis for a while in the early eighties (during the Falklands war) and most of the women there wore nothing, no socks, nothing.

:(

I will miss ya'll. But I will come visit in September- I think I'm going to go to my family reunion up there this year. It's in Tower Grove park. You're all invited, of course.

Potential ISSA status for the Slalom St Louis

Post by Pat Chewning » Wed Apr 18, 2007 6:34 am

Just want to let you know that Harms has started the ISSA sanction application process and the status will most likely be BASIC. (Because the deadline for PRIME status has passed, without and ISSA application being submitted.)

But from the comments above, it looks like the final status is not much concern....

St. Louie. Memorial Day weekend

Post by Cat Young » Thu Apr 19, 2007 8:51 pm

The only ticket I could get was in on Thursday, May 24th @10:38 pm & out on Tuesday May 29th 12:55 pm---- don't have an airport ride lined up yet.

Right now, I have a place to stay Friday & Saturday only.

Can anyone help a sista out? I'll buy the beer! (oh crap, maybe I shouldn't have said that)
Do they still sell Lucky Lager for $3.99 a case?

Muchos Gracias!

Is there anyone who doesn't mind me bringing my pugs that I could stay with? Worst case scenario... I will see if I can get them a sitter... but I'll need to mapquest directions to your house if you'll let me stay, so hit me up on here or on MySpace and let me know.

LATEST INFO--NOTE 100-CONE RACE ON SUNDAY!!!

THE COURSES: As in previous years, they're gonna be "slalom," with courses varying from 40 to 100 cones. Push start only.

FRIDAY, MAY 25, we plan an afternoon/evening outlaw session at "Spot 2," a slightly steeper hill at the other end of the park. Single lane, no timer, just for fun.

SATURDAY, MAY 26, we plan a single-lane jam at "Spot 1," the same hill as previous years. Course will be a hybrid, with spacing anywhere from 6 feet to 20 feet, emphasizing speed and fun--makeable for newbies, challenging for experts to go fast on. Take as many runs as you want; fastest time wins.

Note: This year will be a little weird at first, because there are huge piles of wood chips on the road at the top, left over from several severe storms this winter and spring. The push start will be next to the piles, but we'll make sure it's blown and/or swept clean. Nothing to worry about, just a little odd-looking.

SUNDAY, MAY 27, we plan a dual-lane 100-cone race at "Spot 3," a hill at the opposite end of the park. Cones will be set straight (no offsets) but will follow the natural curves of the road, which bends right, then left, then back right again. Cone spacing will vary from about 6 feet at the start to about 7 feet at the end. You WILL wiggle!!!

RACE LOCATION: Tower Grove Park in south St. Louis. Friday's fun session will be on a slightly steeper hill with a mild left-hand bend at the top. Saturday's single-lane hybrid will be on the same hill as in past years, an S-shaped street with a mellow slope but plenty of speed.

SURFACE: EXCELLENT asphalt, good runout at the bottom--little or no footbraking required. The streets are very slightly crowned and not particularly steep, but you won't be hurtin' for speed.

1st place: $200.00
2nd place: $100.00
3rd place: $50.00

Custom trophies to top 3 finishers. Swag from ABEC11, Pavel, Pocket Pistols, plus several others in the works.
