Sunday, June 12, Dual GS
This hill has high quality blacktop with a decent runout. Starts mellow,
drops at about 6% and flattens toward the end. Good for a 60+ cone Hybrid course with plenty of speed, and good for medium fast GS (slower than pump station, faster than Breck). Ramp starts, Trakmate and Chronocone timing. Table Mountain Parkway is 60' wide and a couple of thousand feet long. |

Saturday, June 11, Dual TS Slalom
The famous Spyderco site will be used for the Tight slalom. This is the same location of the 2004 Colorado Cup. This is a 700' long stretch of butter smooth pavement with a deceptively fast finish. Video clips of the hill will be posted for your enjoyment. We decided against using the Hill in Boulder near CU as the cost of the logistics was prohibitive. |
$40 entry fee covers both days Golden (3 races). $25 kids and ladies.
Prize money based on registration. All money goes to the purse after expenses (permits, insurance, etc.). Insurance cost more than doubled this year, and new permit fees exist. We need 22 paid adults to cover cost of the event. This leaves little for the prize money for the purse, but this will be a legal race with plenty of competition and prize schwag. So if you want to take a crack at the current World Slalom Champ, World Overall Champ, World AM Champ, World Junior Champ, (must I go on...) come to Colorado (a world ranking PRIME event) and throw down. If you are too intimidated by the talent in Colorado, you will elect to stay home and read about the Cup from your monitor. This comment is intended to bait a certain Southern California pipe fitter to travel to Colorado and show us how to run the tight.
|
Race bracketing will be set up to allow for the greatest number of racers going head to head. Last year everyone raced in a competitive bracket. This will likely be an 8/16/16 scenario, or some multiple thereof. Kids, ladies, and new racers are encouraged to race.

There are plenty of cheap hotels in town. Surrounding towns are Lakewood, Arvada, and Wheatridge. Or you might be able to swing a couch from the COSS crew. contact riders@coloradoslalomDOTorg. Maps and race day schedule will be emailed only to those who sign up on the contest calendar and include an email. Sponsors interested in helping with race logistics and site space please contact Fluitt.
Outlaw slalom in Golden behind Fluitt's house followed by Barbeque and pre-screening of 2005 Worlds DVD Premeire and the secret training techniques of COSS.
Saturday night Ramp session at local ramp TBD. |
Update, Sunday 6/5 5:07PM
The Friday Outlaw event will be sort of a cross between SuperG & GS. We'll be using 3 streets to create the course, There will be three 90 degree turns. Gnar factor is high. Bring all your pads. This event will get under way about 5PM. We don't want to stick out like a sore thumb so drive up, drop your gear and park at my house. It's a couple of blocks to skate from my house to the start. You will get a minimum of 2 runs. This is a ONE CONE DQ. We don't have time for cone counting. Expect a 50 second run. Glass smooth pavement, but there some construction debris. Bring your Broom and Blower.
After the race we'll BBQ and do some video at the Fluitt house. Kids are welcome and encouraged.
Saturday's Tight is at Spyderco. We set the course on Sunday 6/5 and it is a technical tight. Expect a left hand curve followed by four step overs, left left right right, followed by a 15 cone "S" and a longish stinger. 60 cones. Race starts at 9:00, Men first, kids race after the men's race. We need to cone for these kids and cheer them on.
Sunday's Hybrid is at CoorsTek. We tried to set a GS but it wasn't fast enough so we opted for speedy hybrid with about 50 cones. Same deal with kids race.
