http://www.champdofunil.com.br
It happened in 19 and 20 August, district of
Glaura, next to the city Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais – Brazil, the championship of
Funnel 2006, the second event IGSA in Brasil, the first National IGSA in Brazil.
This event counted points for the Brazilian ranking and international IGSA
world ranking. 52 athletes in Stand Up, 6 athlete in StreetLuge, 1 athlete in
the Butt Board category (discipline recent in Brazil) and only one girl Christie
Aleixo representing the discipline Stand Up woman.
The course is 1.1km long, next to the city, it
made possible the presence of great public, 1500 hay bail’s had been placed by
all extension to guarantee the physical integrity of the athletes.
Two chicanes had been mounted in the course and
the Funnel (a nip of two tracks for only a track on the turn).
Saturday 19 August
Really nice sunshine, Saturday we had the
qualify time, where the guy from São Paulo, Tiago Tebet did the best time, Tiago
is from the same team then me “Ratos Team” or Rats in English, the second best
time from Douglas, the third time from Everton Alves. We don’t had serious
accident in the qualify time, pretty good.
The athletes had camped in the municipal
school, where also we had the lunch break, the food of excellent quality was
served, in the first day the organizers and the riders decided to eat latter for dont to lose time from the contest.
 
Sunday 20 August
Sunday started cold with rain, really different
from Saturday when we had sunshine.
The race track was wet and the hay bails too,
time for the riders meeting, the race director Alexandre Maia did voting
between the athletes, to know if everybody want to race in the rain. To the end
of this voting he was determined that the event would happen exactly with rain,
but with the alterations in the race track, the organisation team took out the chicanes.
On Sunday everybody was in the school for lunch
break, nice to have everybody together and eat, like a big family. Still Rainfall, the race and heats starts, the
track was drying and the speed of the athletes increased.
 
The competitive heats, had been determined in
the final meters. The final had the fastest guys, my big friend Tiago Tebet,
Vermelho, local guy Zezinho and Douglas.
The first place Vermelho, second place Tiago
and third place Zezinho.
One problem that occurred on the first day
was that the athletes had been without water in the line up all day long. This
imperfection continued in the Sunday day because we didn’t had cups to drink
the water!! and no tent for protection for the rain. We had a very nice price
giving a rad show and all together enjoyed a lot of beer.
I like to say thanks for Rógerio Alcântara, he
give me the release about this contest.
