3 months to prepare for the gnarliest ditch race yet. Hell - it's probably the gnarliest race anywhere, ditches or not.

I assure you this one will set the bar.

It's wide open in '07.

I'll post more soon, but reserve that day.....

New Park Race Format
On 10/31/2006 LBR wrote in from United States  (72.165.nnn.nnn)

At the Halloween Havok Skate Contest this past weekend we had a "Pumpkin Carving Contest." (get it?) In place of cones we used orange plastic Jack-O-Lanterns.
I've held a skatepark race at Boulder Park before, and while it was fun, it's long and boring for the spectators to watch a bunch of dudes run the same line over and over.
This time we switched it up a bit. There were twelve pumpkins (cones) on all of the prominent features of the flow area-three hips, two extensions, a bank hip, three pockets, a low flat wall and two on the long east wall of the park.
The clock started when the skater cleared the first cone and ended when he cleared the last cone. You had to clear all twelve, one cone DQ.
This allowed the competitors to choose their own line and use their creativity in finding the fastest line. Some skaters with balls could grind over two cones at once or clear three cones in one massive aerial assault.
It was also a lot more fun to watch then twenty dudes all soing the same thing.
Make sure to let me know if you try this format in your own skatepark. I'd love to hear how it works out.
I chose this forum because you guys are supposed to be on top of this type of event.
How was Arizona? Post some results, YO!

DESERT DOG DEATHRACE
On 10/17/2006 HACKMAN- THE GNAR GNAR - BLR wrote in from (76.176.nnn.nnn)

G.I.-

I USUALLY CAP ALL DEATHRACES AT 30 ENTRIES PER RACE-
DUE TO TIME RESTRAINTS.

WE ARE TAKING 20 ONLINE ENTRIES AND LEAVING 10 SPACES OPEN FOR
THE PRO BOWL RIDER FINALISTS WHO PROBABLY WON'T SIGN UP ONLINE
BUT WILL JUMP IN AT THE LAST MINUTE ON RACE DAY.

HOPE THAT CLEARS THIS UP.

BEST,

HACKMAN- THE GNAR!

Desert Dog Death race
On 10/17/2006 GI Joe wrote in from (65.19.nnn.nnn)

There is conflicting info on the Desert Dog Death race, the SRA site says that the entries will be capped at 20 Pro racers and a recent post from the GNAR states that this will be a HUGE event with lots of top Pros, entries capped at 30 racers. Please advise.

And thanks for not calling it a SkatePark Slalom, god knows we have enough slaloms already!
