Org: CSA (1772 Posts) Topic Post Death Race Park Slalom On 4/22/2006 Dan Hughes wrote in from United States  (208.187.nnn.nnn) It was a fun race, for sure. However, it was difficult in that rolling in over coping was necessary to make a fast time. And one transfer between bowls was more difficult, unless a person could do an air over a spine. Top three riders were all who were adept at rolling or airing over the spine. I'm sure young legs helped too. Wally Inouye was there, and raced too.     Rate post 236009 !

Just a thought. Otherwise we can really put the cones tight like Paul Dunn set at Morro Bay 2004 during the Saterday "General" slalom race where there's often an uphill breeze. Just another thought. OK, that's all I have for now. Ummm, so, like if I have any other ideas, I'll post them right here. On the CSA forum. Not on the Slalom forum. The Slalom forum would be appropriate since, like you know, we are talking about slalom. But I'll keep my comments on this specific topic right here on the CSA forum since we are, you know, talking about a CSA event. OK, so I guess that's all I have to say on the matter for now. So, umm, I guess that's it. Ok, so like, umm, later and stuff. -Paul     Rate post 235968 !

It's worth it. Thor's time estimate is about right. DEANO-Probably 10am-ish, if you want to show up early and help, that would be awesome. LEAF BLOWERS- If you got one, bring one, anyone. I'll be stoked to race with you guys, broken bones and all-Paul     Rate post 235915 ! Best-Of Ncdsa (0)   Informative (0)   Abuse(0)   Flag Moderators (0) Time?

Dave, as far as lodging goes. Salmon Creek area 134th st is where I-5 And I-205 come together. If you have been to any WSU sessions it is that exit. Bunch of new motels and hotels in that area and less than 10 minutes and 2 exits from the race hill.     Rate post 235888 !

It's not terribly far off of I-205 or I-405 or whatever that Interstate Freeway is that circles around the EAST side of the greater Portland area. If you haven't ridden it, it's WAY worth it in my view. Talk about it with Hughes and use it for leverage to get him to come to the race. Adios-Paul     Rate post 234708 !
