for those of you not interested in skating, or if it rains, I suggest we visit the internationally renowned 'Flat Hat Museum', and SSof S will be providing re-mixes of the Grimethorpe Colliery Brass Bands greatest hits.
Seriously though, whatever happens it will be a laugh. You tell me where else we can gaurentee a dry course, however long, with the prospect of the best session before spring....Its only 3 hours from London, or if Simon Levines giving you a lift, its only 2. Great move, Sheffield guys!

Johnny Boy, it may be a little far to travel for some indoor slalom, with the possibility of outdoor stuff, if it doesn't rain. Maybe you want to come so that you can carve the arse off of everyone on the dry slope!

thanks for the offer Lee, sadly I couldnt go even if I could get a lift down. Lack of time and money. I'll come next year, just this year its out of the question. I can print off some posters and put them around cardiff if it would help.

you know, if more slalomers, etc put up posters that looked good like the sheffield one-skaters would definately take notice. i love street, etc but racing someone with cones or downhilling is just as exciting and totally different. hopefully more skaters out there will discover our roots by all the passion you all possess

agree with clingfilm that the poster is excellent, there was some discussion some while ago about using good imagery for slalom and for my money you've hit it on the head (out of interest is it a modern shot?).
sadly i can't make sheffield, but i plan to print off some posters and stick em up around the college where i work, local skatepark etc. its only a small gesture but i think if a few of us did this all over the UK - esp in new school dominated parks - it would be a great way of raising the awarness of the rebrith of slalom.

kipping down in The House is unlikely - I spoke to them and it's not really going to work. Plenty of cheap places round here, should be empty at this time of year, not too cold for sleeping in vans...

If you can get over the Channel it is an easy drive to Sheffield. I am sure that there will be places in cars if there are not too many.
Dobie and Sweeny are thinking of comming so they will need lifts. Charalambous is in the US for his daughter birthday and I await news from Jim Parry Jones.
I suggest anyone who wants a lift liase here when we know a little more in a week or two.
There must be spaces.
SSofS
Accomodation will be critical. Any chance of bedding down in the park if B+B is a problem.
Chris
I love the poster, well done. I contacted my friend in Hud last night and they had already heard about it.

Simon and Lee
Thanks for the offer, can I hold until I know more about who will need a lift. I can take my car if needs be, but if I can leave it here for Paula it would be easier.
I plan to go to Huddersfield Friday night, I have friends there and I am sure that you will be welcome to stay there.
I will approach Charalambous, Doby , Jim Parry Jones and try Sweeny again, still no luck there, the party animal.
Some of the Brixton guys may also need a lift if they can not get their van.
I will let you know
Chris
