IFSA
Moscow
26th July -5th August 2007
+ 3rd IFSA competition : Huge organisation, giant
stadium, and many skaters coming from everywhere. This
was held by RollerClub, Russian Federation in partnership
with the Russian Olympic Comittee. Do you know Vladivostock
is some 9000km from Moscow ?
Some Russian need to travel twice more than I did to
join Moscow. Freestyle was on
Saturday, I then had time to take part to speed slalom.
I met new skaters about 70 participants for freestyle
slalom only. Organisation was sharp, on time. Nice competition & I
scored 1st for Freestyle Slalom.
On Monday night, I travelled to StPetersbourg with
some friends, Olivier, Walid, Isabelle, Skali, Clochette.
There some skaters welcomed us : Dmitry, Vova, Masha,
Sasha. We also met skaters on the spot. Slalom, Jump,
Hockey.
Thursday we had a long way back to Moscow. Before taking
off, back home on Sunday 5th August.
