2009 IFWA Freeride tour dates

[LBE]

Dates are tenative as of now but should be solidified soon.
New stop added in Morocco this year!! <then removed>


FRANCE 2&3 may
PORTUGAL 16 &17 MAY
BRAZIL AUGUST
USA SEPTEMBER 2009

 

[SuperJETT]

Want to add them on the calendar so they show up on the home and forum pages in Upcoming Events?

I have them like this:

FRANCE 2&3 may /
SPAIN 9&10 may /
PORTUGAL 16 &17 MAY /
MOROCCO 23 & 24 MAY /
BRAZIL AUGUST /
USA SEPTEMBER 2009

It also makes more sense going down from France, Spain and Portugal and then over to Morocco. Thats 4 weekends on the bounce, if did all of them, then thats like 5 weeks off work, I can't do that! :sadwavey:

Ya... to US event.. WAHOO !

I dont want to break the bank. But if I could make another IFWA besides the US one. Which one would you all suggest ?

I had a blast at the last IFWA in Cali

 

[mouvax]

definitely brasil, or spain ! always a blast there:beerchug:

 

[ckjetski]

Eddie are you doing all the events this year??

Eddie I would love to go to Europe and ride for the entire month of May!!! Not to compete, I just want to go and ride (and paddle surf) my brains out- especially Morroco. So how much would a trip like that cost? (Ballpark of course). Would it be any cheaper if we all split costs for shipping skis, etc?

 

[stanton]

pismo?

 

[infamy]

hard to beat pismos location, accessibility, and acceptability.

and i agree the last two events were incredible though last year was slow compared to 07.

Ya, it makes more sence that way. Tim says the dates are still tenative. Hope to see you and Pipa again at atleast a couple stops.

Eddie are you doing all the events this year??

I hope so, thats the plan for now.

There is a larger group of American riders that want to go this year. Maybe we could look into getting a container for all the skis.
If you come, you better compete!
I would say to do the Euro portion about $5-8k+/-

Pete, you should definately try to make it! I missed France but had a Blast in Spain.

Hey Eddie, Pippa and I are doing all the rounds this year.

We have 4 Uk riders doing all the rounds and I think for France and maybe Spain we may be turning up in force with possibly up to 10 riders!!

I just heard that it looks like Morocco is cancelled... but the other 3 European dates are pretty concrete. Brazil and US dates still unconfirmed.

I gotta say that it was my first time last year at IFWA and had such a great time, and also we're not all as good as Ross and Pierre!!

 

[FL-cracker]

Eddie, I think I told you Saturday night, but you were absolutely killen it at Daytona. Sick high speed re-entries!

TC, Ross, Coung, Mark, and all you guys were thrashin it..... But what about Chad just getting nasty on that old square:Banane36:

You guy's will be throwing it down big agian this year on the tour I am sure.

Good luck, and good shootin the chit with guy's!

I think I will try and make it to the US stop... Hopefully it will be Pismo, I am sure!

so you know there is no sitdown / blaster class anymore so that you'll be competing against standups etc

 

[warren]

Who said I was gonna compete, i'm going to hang out and have fun in the sun.
Way out of my league.

 

[LBE]

The Round in Spain has been canceled. DOH!

Sponsors backed out, yada yada...
