its been a while and it time to do it again.

head to head GS racing down pumpy, same format as Destroy the Streets and Shred the thread

$30 buy in

hit a cone and your DQ'd, double elim format so you can lose once and still make the finals.

its not easy and its lots of fun, if you think you know pumpy then think again.

THE RIDER IN FRONT ALWAYS HAS RIGHT OF WAY.

Rear end crash penalties can range from forfeit the heat (Yellow Card) to a Black Flag (RedCard) for rest of the event.

Premium Member Comment by Benbro on May 23, 2013 at 22:24: yeh totally agree fitz,that comment wasnt directed anywhere ,more so stating that it needs to be tried,..

definetly head to head gs,.but imo its all downhill,.never seen anyone doing uphill slalom courses,haha.

i suppose there will always be traditional slalom races but the mixing of disciplines personally excites me ,..head to head gs,boarder cross series-who said cone dodging was dead...it might be morphing but thats progress i spose

Comment by Guff on May 23, 2013 at 20:18: Is this skateboarding or roller derby if so lets get some of those big breasted roller chicks involved. No offence to chicks with small boobies.

you're right, many races involve yielding for a turn, but none have the sort of turns expected like traditional slalom.

I just wanted to raise awareness of the possible problem of 2 riders fighting for a tight gate. If I can help avoid this problem I'm happy.

We're treading on new ground here with slalom morphing into DH.

Which raises the question. Is it DH or Head to Head GS?
