Could you give more details on the race track?
even if it's kinda far from Marseille, it's still interesting to know how the set-up is done for that sort of event...
Thanks

So English or french... (le francais est autorisé ici ;) )
This was a little contest organized by the local crew of young longskaters and surfers from Vendee (Atlantic coast)... it was the first event they organized... a nice day on the road of the coast, just by the sea.

In fact, the slalom race didn't happen: not much time left after the downhill and "uphill" race (yes going down, pushing by another way to the top and down one more time - strange but fun... really hard for our legs!!)
in fact we were few slalom sk8ers so it was more like a fun demo -everybody enjoyed to test slalom boards and to try at the end of the day a slalom - and some now have their boards and train now.
I hope for a real little slalom race for 2004...

Thanks to ConeRacing.com: Jani and Etienne, who lent boards, the chronometer, cones and slalom stuff.. and even a car that allow me and my friend Guillaume to bring all that there.
