RACE # 3 IN THE CLBC OUTLAW SERIES, THE EXCAVATOR
With thanks to Flatspot Longboards, Cariboo Brewing,
Coast Longboarding & Team Pizza
On a cold, bright, foggy winter morning 20 hungry racers and a dozen invaluable volunteers, friends and fans discreetly met on a path to excellently execute the EXCAVATOR downhill skateboard race & outlaw street cleanup.
This race had to be highly organized and efficiently executed to work well. The Cops did come, but they were looking for someone else.
All Racers at the top of the hill behaved professionally and intelligently when the cops patrolled the cul-de-sac. Well done everyone. Thank you Stumanchu for Directing start line operations & racer coordination. Course Workers Josh, Jocelyn, Cullen, Tash, Tessa, Mika & Colin, Thank you for making this event possible.
The heat structure broke down from 1st round of 20 riders, in 4 racer
brackets with top two advanced, 2nd Round had 2, 5 racer brackets w/ top 4 advanced. 3rd (semifinal) Round had 2 heats of 4 racers which produced 4 racer a consolation Final and OPEN Final heats.
Racers READY, SET, GO! the road was wet, and the air was crisp. The fog rolled in as we began racing and heat by heat riders got knocked out. Some big names were not present this day. Troy yardwaste slept in , Dexter Manning in California, Danger Dane MIA? This made the hungry racers who showed up early, even more eager to earn their position on the scoreboard.
Standout racers excelling on this classic BC wet mountain side neighbourhood road were, Clayton Who has been setting a consistently impressive race record so far, Ali working through the brackets to earn a respectful 6th in consis earning some solid points. Consistency & hard work pays off. Garett (USA) (2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 4th-finals) earning 17 points for the day and climbing the board.
