Watching my son Race in France

International Gravity Sports Association: World Cup Series...
Sounds impressive, sounds international.. guess it is. It is also a lot of waiting around and sky watching to see that it doesn't rain. It is also a lot of regulations. Luckily, I am with good company, my son, and also other parents of riders (but almost all of the riders are adults).

Downhill skateboarding, fast, and fun... apparently, but I also like the classic luge (butt-board) and luge (lay down type with wheels), but the skull board (skeleton with wheels) is terrifying to watch. then the inline downhill skaters are just out of control. (well not really, my knees twist in paint watching them.)

This is my son's first international race at 16 years of age, and is happy so far with his performance. There is stiff competition, but this makes it all the better.

The sun has just cracked through and flooded the sky with a promise of a good day of racing, and not toooo hot (like the first two days were).

This area of france is lovely (alps near Annecy). Here are links to both my photo page and to Wolf's race/ travel page.
happy summer!!!
