Great you got results in all events. Hope SAS will fly me next time.
It looked from my side of the computer the results were very mixed up in all courses. Jason starting with a 20 th but came back on monday. Well, hope to see you all in Hannover.

In frustration over missing PSWC I ran a French 40 cone cyber yesterday,
TIME 8,493 seconds.

Peace

Thank you all for coming this WE.

Weather was not in our side this year but we managed to do our best.
We hope you will all understand for delays and other problems due to meteo.
We would like to thank you all for coming and we hope that despite of the rain, you all have great time racing, and meeting each other in Paris.

Hope to see you all in Hannover!


PS : incredible time Peter! you kick Allan's time!
I will update the list here http://www.riderz.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2918

Not really,
I had a very strong tail wind. If it is to be a record I have to run it from both ends and divade the combined time. This is just going one way. I will post it when I do it both way´s, and I am speaking of slalom skateboard still.

Set up?
Indiana Klangster the gangster PRO model, Radical Klangster claw in the back and Radical Peitirus model in the front. On the axel was Retros PK PRO wheels hand made by chaput for ME. I was wearing a white WE t-shirt and POC PK model helmet and Billabong shorts. On my feet, Osiris Klang Kung model shoes.

I think it will be hard to go sub 8,5 both ways, but I will try.

Peace

I must say I have mixed emotions from the PSWC2007, but I would like to say a big thank you to Jani and Corky. Without you guys I think there would'nt have been a race at all. I really admire that you time after time take on the ungrateful (and unpaid) job of timing races and listening to whining racers. Also I would like to thank Janis brother who always show up at the troca fixing stuff, counting cones trying to make sure we get to race.

It was really nice and fun to hang out with all racers, good luck to all of you that are going to Hannover!

I'd like to say a huge thanks to Vinz, Jani and everyone involved in the RIDERZ association. In spite of weather you guys did throw a true world class event I had fun the whole time, thanks!!!



Special thanks to Patrick Allan who found me three different random places to crash through out the weekend. Bumming through paris when you don't speak any french is nuttty!


This weekend was the first time I ever managed a podium at a world class event, I'll never forget it. :D

Five years racing at Paris! wow!

Here are some photos - great to see so many people travelling for the event, and well done to all, the racing was so close. Everyone is getting faster and the racing is so much fun.

Marcus was very fast and clean in the tight, Ramon showed how good he has become in the hybrid and Jason taking 1st in the GS on the last run of the day was spectacular.

Thanks to the entire Riderz crew for all your effort to run this event. We had a great time visiting Paris again. Now if we can just do something about that rain! Nice to see all our international friends again and stoked to meet many new ones as well.

Major Congrats go out to Brad "The Jackhammer" Jackman who swept the Open Division Overall first in Paris and then in Hannover the weekend following! Super stoked for Brad to make such a comeback after the elbow break in Brixlegg last year. Way to go -- The AXE Army Salutes You!!

(a few things are still missing, like i-tele news TV boardcast and Hawaii Surf catalog /mag that is widelydiffused)
If you know some other coverages, especially from foreign media, let me know ;)

Despite the rain, we finally had a lot of coverage and still more contacts for good things next year
