We're driving down on Friday. Some of Jared's friends and team riders qualified for the Open this year.
Last time we were at Waterdown Jared had a face-to-front-tire meeting with a negligent biker when airing over the spine. That park is going to get really crowded. We may head down to the Niagara Falls park too (instead?). Here's hoping for good weather.

Hey Martin!
Sucks EH! I am at Chris,s. I found the spreadsheet in the story for Top challenge at silverfish longboarding.
I saved it on the desktop so Chris could send it to you. They still dont show the sesults past 4 but you could maybe take a look at the spreadsheet and see things.
Guess well see you in the next day or so.
Guys in vancouver hope you have a good time at the event you planned sorry I wont be in the country to make that one. EH!

It seems odd that they call you guys 'inline' slalomers - some might be offended...it's just an inaccuracy, but still..kind of misleading where can we find resultants past 4th place?

Kudos to canadians racing in the u.s. this week-end at NH, Claude at the pumphouse on fri and whatever Civ & Barrett did yesterday..(not clear yet ..but the usual fine showing, for sure)It's been a great season so far...we'll wrap up with the europeans at Antibes after 80 Cones in Zurich, and then with DHB in November for North America. With all the fine racing and better races being put on all the time, the quality of the sport is accelerating at a fantastic pace. Let's support the organizations that are pushing for the best for the racers; organization and credibility to show the sponsors that it's worth it and motivate them to contribute to the cash purses to allow you guys to do what you do best!

Top Challenge Slalom
Congrats to Civ on taking me out in the Final and the Victory. Aki took out Rookie in the Consi. There was some great racing going on.
We got started around 8:30 pm with 16 racers two qual runs then right into the rounds. Done, by around 10pm.
Mig, Thanks again for taking charge of the timer and such. To all the other volunteers and organsers thanks for sticking around to get it done. It's raining today as expected and had we not finished it yesterday it would have been completed on quals wich would have only changed a couple of things if I remember right.
Encinitas Open: Civ/Barrett, I'm booked send me your IT so I can let you know if I can pick you up on Thursday night or not. I have booked a Van so we have plenty of room. I also fly out on the Sunday night after racing so it will be easy on all of us.

Well Pierre, that's a side of you I didn't know. Now that you've had a taste of prize money, you're turning into a greedy bastard! :) Ha! Ha! Ha!

Does anyone from the Toronto area driving out to Top Challenge have any extra room for a racer and gear? I'm getting a little worried about my ride situation, or lack thereof. Any help would be appreciated! Just email me! Nat
