>>Just to let y'all know that there's something
>>happening in good ol' Sweden aswell. The hill is about
>>two miles (3km) long, got two nasty hairpins and many
>>milder turns. It will be exciting racing, loats of
>>tactics involved since it's rather long, and the two
>>hairpins will require good technique aswel. The date
>>is end of june to 2nd of july. IT's three days
>>practise and then one race day. The categories raced
>>are standup, luge, buttboard and those crazy ice-luge
>>lookalikes with loads of inlinewheels on 'em. If
>>there's any gravitybikers interested i'm sure that
>>they will put on a race for you guys aswell.
>>
>>The road is in a small swedish village called Åre and
>>is a part of some kind of "extreme week" they have
>>there. So if you're into other "extreme sports" like
>>kiteflying and downhill mountainbiking there'll be
>>loads and loads of that kind going on aswell. Åre is
>>supposed to be good for kiteflying and excellent for
>>downhill mountainbiking. Beeing the biggest Skiresort
>>in skandinavia there's all the lifts and cable cars to
>>get you up the mountain, and there's supposedly loads
>>of tracks down agian. They had some big race a few
>>years back but i can't remember if it was the world
>>championship or the world cup. (they're also hosting
>>the ISF World championship (skiing) in 2007).
>>
>>Anyway, checkout www.longboard.nu for more info on the
>>downhill race and have a good life.
>>
>>I havent really managed to get around to much racing
>>for a while. I always seem to fall off my normal
>>skateboard and hurt my self just before anything is
>>on. But I hope to see all of you guy soon.
>>
>>Cheers,
