Thanks Wesly (And Marion for the PM)
Fact is there was a big hoo haaa about Silverfish being a media partner...a website I dont frequent, dont like etc etc etc.
The very least Id expect at a Worlds is the results (called preliminary if need be) the evening of the race.
So what was the Silverfish thing about...could no one report coherently back on even that site.
Nope.
So the media partner thing was a load of baloney.

We are working on getting the full spread sheets up as well so that you can see all the detail.Erik Basil wrote:Marion is finalizing the Overall Finals spreadsheets as I post this. In the meantime, FULL RESULTS OF THE SLALOM WORLDS are published on Silverfish Longboarding.com.
The full list of OVERALL will be up later tomorrow as we are having to go through it in detail to determine which racers participated in all three events, two events only, or one event only.
Thank you for being patient as we are wrapping up all of the efforts from this weekend.

Silverfish was unfortunately working with the info they were receiving and the failure to communicate was on my end. I specifically focused all of my attention to race day on-site information for the participating racers and failed to consider those interested in the community who were not attending Racers had updated and timely access to data unencumbered and in a shaded environment with chairs. Silverfish was very supportive, ran a great deal of pre-race information, and was ready and willing to provide the reading public. So if you want to blame someone for the lack of timeliness of informaiton you can place that blame squarely on my shoulders.Michael Stride wrote:Thanks Wesly (And Marion for the PM)

In my haste to address the concern we have sent to Silverfish information that has a slight flaw in the overall placement of subsequent or lower level finish placement based on Qualifying time. We are making that correction but the flaw did not impact any of the top finishing places and our manual calcuations based on the brackets of the winners of both each dual event and the overall top 3. We will have the spread sheets up and corrected tomorrow but all data in the brackets themselves is correct. Only those places that depended on a reference to qualifying times for sortation are incorrect.
Again, I apologize to all of those internet spectators who were not able to receive timely updates.
For the Dixie Cup we will address this particular issue.

Thanks, Marion.
We were stoked to be able to promote the Worlds and to have had Michael Brooke and other members of the 'Fish community posting results from the races --sometimes nearly in "real time" for some of the heats over the weekend.
Some people, and we all know who they are, can never be pleased, but others might not realize how much work you DHB crew were doing after each "day" of racing. I do, because I spent almost a week at the Maryhill Festival of Speed to cover and shoot the event. After a full day on the hill, it took HOURS to upload photos and then the daily standings, after the race officials were able to finalize the files and hand them to me. Such transfers usually took place around 2am and, like I know you were, the whole crew was up at 5am to get the next day rolling. So, I and a few others (including IGSA President Marcus Reitema, who raced the Worlds and was the guy handing me files at 2am in Goldendale)--certainly the DHB crew-- know that's it's not necessarily easy or convenient to post the excel spreadsheets each day as the racers walk off the hill. Personally, I think it's a lot to ask and that's one reason our team at Silverfish will sponsor with "sweat equity" to help get such things done.
This isn't to say that it's unreasonable for each and every one of us to crave photos and results, because I know I sure do. The slalom racers in distant lands, like the U.K., do also, according to the IP stats that spiked as information was posted over the weekend. I know you and your DHB crew are working hard and that you're now in the Very Most Thankless part of the race organizers' job: the aftermath.
In the meantime, we've got the translated results, and a link for free downloading of the Excel spreadsheets, available Right Here..
Tomorrow, when the amazing Downhillbillies update information, we'll update the files and data, too.

I ride fast boards, slowly.
It's obvious now that your issue[s] with Silverfish have more to do with your rant than not getting instant results. I'm glad that Marion has had time to go back to his family, career,
sleeping, and trying to have a normal life ... oh no ... wait, that's not good enough. "Get off your tired ass Marion and give us complete and detailed results!"
All of you should have been there ... it was a great time.

The Worlds racing results
Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to the World's this year, or any other year, but give Marion and the DHB crew a break on the results!!!!
I am as interested in viewing the "spreadsheets" as anyone, but Marion and the DHB do need to get back to work, spending time with their families, sleeping and just sitting there doing nothing for a bit. Sure, there might have been a few communication gliches, but Marion and Eric (Silverfish), in one way or another, are both very committed to our slalom scene.
Hey Marion and DHB crew, take a breather for a few days, then post the full results....we will all still be living. I'm sure your race was first class.
Great job Lynn, Martin (I'm going to call you "Cool Breeze" for your deceptively fast smooth style), and all the Euros for crossing the pond!

Well Eric, your amazing statistics need analyzing...
One reason why there is a 'spike' of interest in Silverfish from the UK was because we were told that was THE place for info.
I suspect a high proportion of veiws to Silverfish that your report were people checking back constantly to see if the results were there! Again and again....
A little less of a rose tinted, blinkered view might be in order? As we all know there are ..."lies, Damn lies and statistics".
Whilst I fully appreciate the time and effort involved in organising a race which sadly I couldnt attend, this almost 'live' reporting fromthe race never happened. What we got was the last four, or in one case the top 3 of a race result when in fact people who wernt at the race want to see the whole results to see how there friends were doing.
As it stand Silverfish was a complete waste of time.
And your right, I do have an issue with the 'fish....and that issue is about its wholly unrealistic interpretation of its website stats...one reason why we chose not to advertise with them...and also one reason why other UK companies dont anymore too.

hey jani
i'm easy just porking a bit here and there
some things we all should consider:
worlds have to have stuff available superfast
all this needs to be done either with existing spreadsheets or by an expert.
i walked this way last year and i used gesmers sheets and i had jani and corky
working on those sheets too,trying to avoid the chance of making big mistakes.
without their help i wouldn't have been able to get things done the way they were done.
i made my mistakes though and i learned from the process.
the day after the worlds i had to work in brixlegg wrapping things up and heading home.
i failed in posting the results on raceday-that was very bad.
if we want to be pro in what we are doing then things have to change.
i understand stride too.
he has his points which are just
if the "fish" is media partner for this very special event which is the climax of each season there are more things due than what has been done on that page.it is insufficient to tell people how stoked you are or whatever,this is no professional job on this end.
the "fish" is more a downhill/longboard forum than a slalom forum.
i will be bad boy#1 from now on,i like it to be honest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stop it now. Let’s focus on the race itself. From the report I received from Team Sweden, the race was KILLER. And that is VERY important. Look at the times, wow soooo close. Remember it was 15 second courses in Hybrid and TS. I think it’s refreshing with new names like Pappas , and that the obvious is not always so.
Everybody has comments on every race, included me, but from history I’ve learned that the races we go back to are the one we liked the most. I heard NC was a great race and I am pissed I missed it. I hope we can keep the flow of racers making the trip across the Atlantic both ways. I been to the US and A, and I recommend it to all Euros. The americanos have historically been better at making the effort. Keep up the good work and keep coming. I hope to see Kenny back next year, get well bro.
For the season 2008 I just have one point I want to make, get started now with plans and don’t tell the Europeans to plan there races according to your personal travel plans, the sport is small but bigger then you.
Yours fastest

Of course the Swedes enjoyed the race!
They won! (and BIG congratulations too!)
We on the other hand pinned all our hopes on Sam Gordon, who can only come highly placed in Hugh Grant lookalike competitions.
Thats why we needed the resuts...most of the Brits thought that their compters couldnt scroll that far down.
(Tongue firmly in cheek, Michael)

Hey I just got back from over there. My luggage is still in Frankfurt and I am sure Dominik has some things left behind in the big country, too. What I enjoyed most was meeting new faces and racing new competitors (such as George Pappas - we raced each other eight times this weekend!)
Also Kenny was there as a hilarious speaker ("Look at him, he's racing like a possessed animal!!!!")
The "TS" loosened up towards the bottom and that's why Janis was even using his GS board. I'm pretty content about twice having the best qualifying time but then got knocked out by the two physically very strong contestants Pirnack and Pappas.
Oh yeah, thanks to Marion who finally picked me up at the airport
and for all the organisation!
Well, that's it so far. An article with all about that event is about to come out I think....

Thank you Ramon! Thats about the first informative sentances in this thread. When and where will there be a article? Will it be in Swiss or some language that I understand?
If the hybrid/TS was open I'm even more supprised you didn't win... But then again, the times posted in the pic above was very close.
Did Janis win on the C81?

Me and Dominik already worked on it and it'll be in the English language.
Yes, Janis won on the C81 using the small wheelbase. And there was a TS and a Hybrid which should not be confuesed.
The TS was the same for Amateurs and Pros, maybe that'll help you understand the results a little bit better. - It was nice at the top but then opened up towards the end (about 15 cones) and that was where Pappas passed me (twice). Anyhow, it was a steep, fast road. Nothing comparable to what we're riding over here...

same fast hill. Awesome race hill really. And the GS hill was the fastest yet this season, even with the head wind.

Don't let Ramon's remarks fool you.Marcus Seyffarth wrote:...the TS was open...
GIANT
The fastest hill I've ever skated on. I never thought I would even ride from the top. But once in the race it was no big deal. The course was very easy. Too easy, but at least like that it was safe for everyone. It was fun!
HYBRID
Way too open for Euros, but considering the hill and the speed you got, it was just right for me. Guys like Janis needed quite a few races until he figured out how to race well on the course. No hybrid/special race would be held on such a hill in Europe. But now that we know it can be done, let's look for one!
TIGHT
Too tight for many Americans. Too open for Ramon and Janis. Too hard for many ams and juniors, girls. And me. It took me a few runs only to make the course. Then I got it sorted, but once in the race I couldn't keep the wiggling up, so I DQ'd twice. The first 27 cones were tight which gave you a lot of speed up to that point, then it was a bit irregular in cone spacing for a while, but larger than before going across some little bruises in the surface, also snaking down the hill. Finally opening up to closer to 8 foot for the last 15 cones or so, otherwise most people wouldn't make it to the finish line. The fact that quite a few racers didn't even enter the tight tells you that it wasn't tooo open. Cone counts also shows that the combined hill and course was a bit too much.
But the racing was great and the top Pros and Ams were just blazing through the courses. It was some of the most intense racing I've ever seen.
Marion, Surly, Dillon, Paul, the Computer Crew and all other DHB volunteers - Thanks for an exciting race!!!

Here is the Formula we used to calculate the overall World Champion. This is the same method used by COSS for the US Nationals and we have tried to emulate what they do with our events:
Overall rankings will be calculated as follows:
- In each event, "equal" placings will be further ordered according to qualifying position (the 4 racers with "equal 5th" will be ordered 5-8).
- The sum of each racer's placings in the 3 individual events (GS, HS, TS) will be added together to produce an overall placing value.
- Racers will be sorted by overall placing values to compute the overall rankings (lowest number is best)
- In the case of a tie for overall placing between 2+ racers, the final results from the HS event will be used to break ties.
We will be publishing the complete list of OVERALL Placings later this evening but your TOP 10 for PRO and OPEN and Top 3 Women/Juniors are as follows:
PRO
MEN:
1 10 Henrik Wadsten
2 12 Gary Fluitt

At the bottom of the list of the Tight slalom...
Goad, I want your secret as to how you managed to ride that course 3 secs slower than the rest of the guys! If I would have known I wouldn't have DQ'd. I just could keep the speed down and the wiggle up. Double DQ is a bummer.
Marion, do include myself and Attila in the Overall as three entries, obviously better placed than those with only 2 or less entries. Probably there were a few double DQ's the ams too that deserves the same treatment. It's important to have us all listed in the full results so that Corky assigns points to us in the World Ranking for participation. Giving it a try is obviously better than not entering. Thanks!

Jani,
I am on it...I had you both included as 3 event participants. That is the format we are using...ranking racers in the OVERALL that have 3 events, then 2, then 1.

someone checked my wheels when i was walking back up the hill(to see if i had cranked them down) but i use real precision-machined bearing spacers so crank all you want, all roll as tight as you can crank.
i just did not want to lose to you for the 2ed time in two days!
but i guess its the over all that counts.
maybe i should start to party?

It was a great time---- a learning experience!
I really don't have much to compare, as I have only done a handfull of contests.
The hill on Wednesday was super fun! It was a great opener for the "real" contest. Even though there were some timing issues, everyone got plenty of runs.
The GS hill, I thought, was fun. Yes, it was a little flat on top, but that's where experience & technique (and yes, practice) come into play.
I now know I need a tremendous amount of practice on my flatland pumping.
The Hybrid, in my opinion, was challenging. Again, note to self........ flatland pumping, flatland pumping, flatland pumping!
Also, note to self....... practice ramp starts!
No lie..... I went to bed & dreamed about racing. I must have gone down the ramp into a course 500 times last night!
The TS course was also challenging for me & several others, judging by the spray of cones!
I was happy to meet the Swede's, the Brit's, Ramon, Janis & look forward to seeing everyone again next year in Sweden & Brixleg.
It's always good to see the Canadians, COSS, the Eat Coasters, Detroit Rock City, & all the Washington/Oregon peeps.
Thanks to Marion & all the DHB's for their hard work.
Hey Richy..... I didn't know you could speak Swedish! You had us laughing so hard, we were crying!
It was good seeing Dom again & a big thanks to Donald, Pavel & GOG for the continued support.
I appreciate everything & consider myself lucky to have found this sport.
See ya'll at the Pump Station and/or Colorado!

How did Hasse Goteberg do?
Hey Peter,
Do you know how Hasse did? I don't know if you remember me but I skated with you in Stockholm back in 1990. I was staying with Hasse and was good friends with Eric Larsen and Per Viking. I miss that crazy dude. Anyway, if you know how he did I'd like to know. Say hi to Per Shrimp for me........Fiber

Tonight I will have the complete and corrected OVERALL list through the whole group adjusting for those skaters who did not compete in all three events.
Sorry for the delay but my real business has occupied me for a few days ...that making a living crap is for the birds.

Hey Peter,
I just spoke to Eric today and told him that I sent you a message. He wanted to know whats going on with you. He called you an old man who can't give up skateboarding. Does Eric have your phone #?
I told Hasse last week that I want to go to Sweden next summer. When is the World Championship being held? Eric and I will come over and kick ass!
I heard about Per. Sucks! I also heard Per Shrimp is a rock star and getting more ass than he deserves!

Have you decompressed the file? The Excel spreadsheets are compressed with WinRar, a free utility that's similar to WinZip, and that you can download by Googling and clicking the link. JBHarms ran into the same trouble, so a kind soul also posted the decompressed, separate file links in a the one of the forum threads on that site, too.
I ride fast boards, slowly.

Yes, as posted above, the compressed files and the decompressed files are available for anyone to view, download, print, etc... The links here, including the one you used will all work. Bitte shon, amigo. We're happy to be of help.Donald Campbell wrote:erik,did you decompress the file and generously make it available for the non sf people to have a look a it?
I ride fast boards, slowly.

I have good news for you and all the participants of the race. Chronocone was only used during the Friday GS (where a high precision wasn't really needed). It stopped working as the first racers went through the Hybrid courses and caused an hour (or more) delay. It couldn't be fixed and was ultimately replaced by a Trackmate, much to the relief of certain skaters. Saturday evening it was fixed again and we were told it worked Sunday morning, but once racers were on the course it stopped working. I was told it was not Chronocone itself but the wiring. Whichever, it couldn't be fixed, so they switched to Trackmate again.
It may be that the Chronocone spreadsheets were used (I've never seent hem), at least it wasn't the usual Seismic spreadsheets. I think the timer guy Paul did a good job and he tried to stick to (and fix) the timer, which refused to be fixed. In the end Trackmate worked without a single flaw.
I have the same doubts as you have about Chronocone and also of all PC based timers. It may be that the Trakmate is not accurate either, but I personally have better hopes of any hardware solution being safer than a software solution. I wish we could have them all tested. I spoke to a couple of guys at the Worlds and there will be a few attempts to do so in the next few months. If anyone has a good solution to the test the accuracy of the timers I would appreciate input.

I agree, but Alge, Tag-Heuer and Swatch are professional systems costing several thousand euros per setup. Every race organizer cannot afford that, so we're trying less expensive solutions. Trackmate seems the most reliable among the lower cost systems. The kind of testing I'm thinking of is in a lab be staff competent to deal with it. I'm not.Jadranko Radovanovic wrote:The solution is Alge, Tag-Heuer, Swatch or somthing else.
I will bring my ALGE to the next race to test the trackmate...

Worlds Results
May I suggest that this "Worlds Results" forum is not the best place to talk about timing systems?
The OFFICIAL forum for bitching and moaning about the FREE Chronocone timing system is:
http://www.slalomskateboarder.com/phpBB ... m.php?f=58
Slalom is SO fun ... I love putting in hours of work and offering free timing systems ... I do it just for this kind of thanks.

I think it's possible to connect the Alge timing with the tapeswitches/photo cells at the same time as the trackmate with a banana plug. Than we can see if it gives the same times out.
In the current season 30'000 - 35'000 $ were paid out as price money. If the trackmate is not accurate either than it is possible that the money is payed out to the wrong people.
And for 30'000 $ you can buy a lot of Alge-Systems.
There was a situation in Grenoble this year. Me against Gustavs, Gustavs qualified as 5th me as 12th. After the first H2H i was .377 in the front. After the second run Gustavs was in front of me .476 although i was first over the finish line (we had the same number of cones in both runs). I asked by the timekeepers (the speaker), the answer was the chrono gave this time. Together with Gustavs we told them that i was first over the finish line than they changed the row times.
I saw on tapeswitches.com that you can buy tapeswitches for arroud 30 Eur. We payed 230 Euro for one Alge Tapeswitch. The tapeswitch react when you let a ballpen fall from 5cm height.
I would like to test the trackmate and see if there is a differenze between the systems.
I will ask Stephan, he is electronic engeener and has perhaps access to some test systems.

Re: Worlds Results
Pat, its great that you provide a FREE timing system, and its even better that it is used frequently and seems to work fine.
The problem is that the world championships should not rely on a freeware that is not verified in accuracy.

It's a bit late and not the right place talk about this specific incident now, but one thing that Trakmate does not solve is that you have type in the times. In the first run you take the top time and put it into the top line of the spreadsheet. In the second run you must take the bottom line from Trakmate and put it into the top line in the spreadsheet. This could result in times being switched, but the timer guys know about this problem and normally it is double checked by the guy sitting next to him. This is a problem Chronocone would have avoided and it is one of the reasons Marion wanted to use Chronocone for the Worlds.Jadranko Radovanovic wrote:There was a situation in Grenoble this year.

PS: There is now a PC connection on the Trackmate, so you can get data directly into a spreadsheet, but someone needs to sit down and program it. I requested it for so long, ordered a whole bunch of Trackmates to encourage him. Now we've got it, but I haven't got the time to program it. Any candidates?

It I haven't said it clearly enough, the Worlds 2007 was one of the most interesting races to attend. I had a great time. I raced types of roads and courses that I had never had a chance before to try. I saw skaters that impressed me very, very much. My friends did well! and overall it meant a great deal to me!
I came home very motivated to return!
I'd love to see some good photos posted. Yeah, I know there are probably a 1000 out there already, but I want the best ones in here!
I should do a post about riders that really impressed me (like Fluitt, Pirnack, Zac, Martin and a whole lot of others). I'll do that later. Gotta work also!
