Re: Opening for Entries

Is it as simple as letting organizers decide in the same way they did for the old card entry system?

.........or does that complicate things for the online entries (possibly prompting this thread)?

Re: Division Sizes and Promotion Points

Graveyard is full and has no paddle ups, just a few open entries & a lot more Prem waiting. So your logic is not right. Paddle ups dont get promotion points form Prem so are probably not quite ready for that step - so dont dilute it. When paddlers are good enough they will make it - in ethe same way...

Re: Opening for Entries

For some reason i didnt get my sons entry into graveyard. its possible that it was due to the entries opening later than others so from my point of view open asap.

But its prem & there are only a few races & he wants to attend all


Its just our perspective but hope it helps

Re: C1 Promotion points

I agree with Mike. Paddle up is OK but there are too many of them and it devalues Prem. If people want to race at Prems for experience then they can judge, like we used to and there was never a shortage of judges as a result. At the Open this year there were way too many paddle ups. I was told that...

I can't see any reason why refunds shouldn't wait until after the event.

Agreed & supported

C1 Promotion points

Looking at recent results there are a good few paddlers in C1 with great results finishing on podium but not getting points for promotion. Looking at one paddler they have 4 2nd's and a 1st but still not there, perhaps the C1 promotion points need a review to allow progress of more paddlers what do ...

Re: Protests - the new way to good results?

Put in 1 protest at Selection & was upheld with a comment of 'water splash' (or similar) in favor of paddler - we felt it was clean & it was. The process works. Requested a transition check at Cardiff & it came back as 2 second penalty - no protest, they must have seen something. The process works. ...

Re: IP statement - K1M U23/J18 Euros team?

There are no C1M reserves & therefore no C1M for the Euro team - i dont understand why this is the case?

Re: Superfinal Format at Prem Races

Format is understandable but points allocation is rubbish (in my view).

I agree with a lot of posts - points should be based on best of 2 runs for those that dont get to the final not just 2nd run - then finalists in the order of the final.
