Pinkston div 2/3 Slalom

Post by Chris Baillie » Tue Jun 10, 2014 8:05 am

It is the first Pinkston ranking slalom this weekend in Glasgow.

A 4 minute or less drive from junction 16 of the M8 motorway.

There are 3 pumps at Pinkston.

The div 3 event will run on 1 pump and the div 2 event on 2 pumps. There will be plenty of time for practise with the water on both settings.

Currently on Friday evening
6-7pm 1 pump
7-9pm 2 pumps

Additional time on saturday but times not confirmed yet as depends on final entry numbers.

Come along and see this excellent new facility.

Ian,
I was at the open day and had to roll in the top stopper on 3 pumps, so quite glad it's only 2. See you Friday night or Saturday morning. :D

DQ

Great to see the first event under way and the clever use of the water by having different number of pumps on to suit the Division. Also fantastic to see another slalom site in Scotland.

So, in future we could run a Div 3,2 and 1 running on 1,2 and 3 pumps! That would add another dimension to organising the event!

Good luck to all those racing.
