Contest Info: Sunday, September 8th, Westwood Ski and Sports Club and the
International Gravity Sports Association (IGSA) will be holding the
third day of slalom racing of the 2002 California Championship
gravity racing series.

The race will be at West LA College and include:
- tight slalom (skateboard)
- fast slalom (short board, long board over 36", inline skate)
It will be a best of 3 run format. In fast slalom the penalty for
hitting a cone will be 0.2 sec. For tight slalom it's 0.1 penalty
and no DQ for hitting too many.

Be sure to have a look at the new TURNER CAMBRIA WHEELS,
and if things go well you might win a set!

There will be a winner take all CASH PRIZE pool. Each rider may kick
in $20 cash to the pot, and the winner of the combined tight slalom and
short GS placements takes the pot (tie breaker is highest placement,
with a bonus sudden death tie breaker run on the GS course if needed).
The club will donate $20 for every 10 tight slalom entries to sweeten
things, and if the pot gets over $200 we'll start awarding cash to
2nd and 3rd place.

Ski and Sports Club as a full member is encouraged, and entitles
you to participate in ski and snowboard races and trips, water ski
trips, parties, skating practices, equipment discounts, and more.
Please bring your checkbook to become a full member ($35/year).
Day memberships are available for $5/day, and are required for all
riders who are not full members (i.e.: non-member fees are $30
and $15). Juniors (under 18) must be accompanied by a parent or
guardian, and will be charged only a practice fee even if they race.
Spectators are free. Also, the first few who come early to help with
the street cleaning and setup in the morning will receive a free race entry!

Manufacturers and shop owners, it's not too late to supply prizes
for these races! You can even just show up with something to
add to the prize pool, and bring your banner to hang. We'll be
sure to mention you in upcoming announcements.

Protective gear: for slalom and giant slalom helmets, pads
(elbow and knee), and hand protection (gloves and/or wrist
guards) are required, and hip pads are recommended. Please,
no short shorts or tank tops. For street luge, buttboard, and
gravity bikes, IGSA equipment rules will be used (helmets,
leathers, and leather gloves are required). We're building an
equipment pool to loan to people who forget things, please
donate your old gear, it may save someone a long trip home!

See you there!

Scott

Overall Results: California Championship Series 6
West LA College, California
9/8/02

The third slalom of the 2002 California Championship series at
West LA College featured a tight slalom set by Attila and a fast
slalom set by Scott that included an optional jump. Richy Carrasco
swept all three skateboard events, while Scott Peer posted
the fastest time on the hill on inlines. The three fifth place skateboard
finishers all took home sets of Oust Bearings (the bearing of choice
for Richy), and every racer got at
least one dive into the prize pool for sweat shirts, glasses, and all kinds
of prizes. Smiles and good vibes prevailed as we headed home after a
fun day of skating.
