An info I just got from Chris Hart @ Airflow Skateboards:

Slalom Skateboarding is now an official sport in schools in Switzerland. Man, I want to move and go back to school!

Does this mean the Swiss will be the strongest slalomers in the world? Again?

It will be very hard this Year. We will be stronger and faster.
I hope it will be a great worldcup.

That's really neat to hear that slalom is starting up in Swiss schools. But, how can we start slalom in U.S. schools?

Lauren, talk to your teachers and invite them to a race, show them that it is save and good for the overall condition and for the senses.

Good luck, chris

Thanks Chris, I'll try that. The Worlds would be a good one to do that for.
