Thursday 11 of August
I
left Zurich and met Bettina, Benny and Robert in Winterthur. This time
the trip is not so far, short distance only 300km to Germany. We
arrived in Helden at 23:00, it started to rain, we had a big fire going
on and a lot of wood to burn between the days of the contest. everybody
stayed outside for a long time, there's nothing to do in the tents,
also the next day all the guys had to wait until the road would dry.
Friday 12 of August
Early rain a lot, chill on the camping ground until afternoon till the rain stopped.
The road had 1.3km, short and really narrow, few turns, one really nice
combination between two turns, left turn after right turn. The road in
the afternoon was still wet, little sunshine came through and helped us
to dry the road. After 30 minutes perfect, the road had dried, few guys
really like to ride standup in the rain or on the wet road, I hate
this, for me no chance.

Woke up early for the breakfast, really cold in the morning and wet.
After a nice breakfast for the long day, we had to wait again till the
road dried . Saturday we had much luck, rain stopped earls and the road
dried, ready for racing . First warm up for everybody, few free rider
runs, “stop stop stop” said the guy in the start line, “now we go to
the race”

The really narrow road was pretty small for 4 riders in stand up but funny.
On my first hit I met Ross the Boss from Canada, Ross is sooo funny.
I’m sure Ross is American from U.S.A, not from Canada, everybody know this, come on Ross you're not a Canadian!!!

My second heat with Ross, Hack from Germany and Boris from Germany too,
in the first corner or turn Boris crashed behind me, into me really
bad, he did one bad fall, dont crash from behind into other competitors
....
Well for me the race whas finished, I
know about IGSA rules, when somebody can’t drive safe, or crash behind
others, this guy is disqualified, I spoke with organizers on the race,
but nothing happened, really bad because this event is IGSA, need to
follow IGSA rules. Well the small final Adrien, Ross, Roli and Boris,
and the final Bassi, Yoyo, Stefan Rüffli and Huge.
After the final from stand up started the
stand up woman, buttboard and streetluge, sure the free ride show can’t
stop, everybody can do more runs, everybody had a lot fun .

After the race everybody waited for the party and this time Benny and
Robert did really good show on the party, this guys are the best, I
only can say Puou Puou Puou for this guys.
Sunday 14 of August
The last day everybody woke up late, still drunk from the hard party,
after nice breakfast free riding was on, the day looked like nice
sunshine early, well for me no chance, I packed my things because
Benny, Bettina and Robert want to go early, only went to the course to
say bye.
Well the next weekend I go to France for Izoard, when I back one more story.
