Slalom

I'm down for helping out as much as I can for a sydney event. here is a link to the new fullbag vid with a very annoying soundtrack to get you guys amped for the next session, i can't seem to get the embed code to work

Yeeeah...... CHC 2011.

We have 2 new possible venues for slalom on the central coast

which would also need the council ticks to run an event.

Plus a drain. :-)

Sutherland was great with the weather just holding off for about 15 or so riders ranging from slalom techheads to groms on downhill gear. The surface was super smooth and the traditional blood sacrafice to the gods of slalom was made by a couple of lucky souls (the surface even created smooth wounds!).

The word is this will likely be a GS event for the conehead cup in 2011. Bugs was initially setting a loose open course with a slowish top section and a faster lower section with huge side to side "sweepers". He gradually tightened up the course as the day went on creating more speed and interest at the bottom of the course still keeping some of the fun GS sweepers. Just about everyone was making the course even on longboards. Thanks to Mountain Mick for posting some photos.

Let's try and get this session going more often with a monthly session alternating between Sutherland, Allawah and Pumpstation, or anywhere else anyone can think of. Anyone want to call it for the 6th of March?

Anyone tried 78a Mini Hawgs for slalom?

Oh and I also tried those 86a InHeats on my other board and they are fast and grippy until they wear in then you have no chance.

I think that's O-tang wheels in general. Great for the first day of riding then deteriorate and wear out quick.

Retro Zigs are still my number 1 slalom choice. Love em.

Sorry Mick. Cant make it this sunday.

I'll be driving 6 different sports cars from Sydney to the Hunter Valley and back, up Putty rd.

Porche 911, 996 Cabrio, Merc SLK, SL55 AMG, Lotus Elise, BMW Z4.

OH YEAH!!!!!

How did you manage to bag that lot Fitz?!

Had a mad pump along the river bikeway in Brisbane today, super smooth and full of pedestrians to pass! Hilarious fun!

be setting some cones and a timer weather permitting this weekend probably mid to late sunday afternoon at wadalba if wadalba isn't booked - a lot or pre seaon games at teh moment or further afield maybe newie or a netball court

Well it is that time of the month...Anyone up for a Church Session this Sunday?  I recon Allawah but I'm open to other locales.

I can bring cones and a dodgey timing system.

Most likly a CROSS boy but not mentioning names.  

Rossco

oops

Thanks to everyone for a great day at Allawah (thought I'd post here as the events pages fade away quickly).

Was the best sesh at Allawah for a couple of years. Many thanks to Bugs for a fast and fun course, and to Robbo (and the other fella, whos name I didnt catch) for lugging, setting up and running the excellent new TAG timer which seemed to work fault free all day.

Next one in the Mountains I recon. Any of the BMBs want to call it before it gets too cold?

Great to see slalom happening.

Now to get Melbourne fired up!

yeah - Blue Mtns GS!!  Bring it!!

Was a super fun day.  Hadn't been to Allawah in aaaages, so rad to be back there.  Stay posted for the Allawah Allround, back to the classics with a day of all types of skate events!  Coming our way soon!!

Who's got the time results from sundays session? I know Hagbags laid down an 18.7 before I left.

I said it on sunday, jumping on the slalom stick and pumping the cones at Allawah is like re-acquainting with an old friend. So much fun.

Results from the recent CoS, better late than never. These are probably a little dodgy cos the cone counting wasn't too exact...

Thanks bugs,

Wow, the times really came tumbling down after I left!

If I had the time I would have loved skating that course for the rest of the day. Maybe even improve my time a bit better.

Nice one BMB! 

I think it's time we do a SGS up there, whaddya guys think?
