The Boater-X and SlopeJam team will be waving goodbye to those white cliffs in a matter of hours, so there’s not much left to say other than see you out at L’Argentiere ready for a HUGE event and party!
We’ll be wandering round the slalom course campsite in the lead up to the event, and there’ll be a notice close to reception of where we’re based should you have any questions about either of the two events.
As a general plan:
FRIDAY 11th JUNE: SLOPEJAM entrants, spectators, onlookers, cheerleaders, W.A.G.S. et al. – meet at either:
L’Argentiere campsite reception @ 4:30pm OR
Top of the main section of the Fournel @ 5:00pm
Runs will start soon after 5, so please be prompt. A running order and general low down will be dished out to participants on arrival.
Prizegiving and evening plans dished out after that.
SATURDAY 12th JUNE: STUDENT BOATER-X
Same basic plan as the day before – meeting at 5pm, this time at the slalom course control centre building thingy. The lowdown for all the events will be given there and then. Races will be in the order of:
1. EXPERT
2. INTERMEDIATES
3. BLOATER-X
4. NOVICE
5. INFLATEY
(1-3 on the slalom course itself, 4 and 5 on the campsite lake)
Precise timings are based around the “takes as long as it takes” rule – just be ready and raring for 5.
Prizegiving will be under the BigDog Gazebo near the slalom course control centre. Party details will be announced at the prizegiving with news of plans from the “Extreme Events” crew. The basic plan is to head up to the Fournel (a stones throw away, in order to not p*ss off the campsite) with a transmitter, couple of speakers, banging tunes, refreshing beverages in a wheelie bin of equivalent and good, clean fun (;-))
Any questions whilst we’re out there, come and find us (it’s not that big a campsite) or if you can’t find us call on +44(0)7786196720!
See you in the sun,
Matt & Andy x
