Crankworx – Dual Slalom

A39Y7417One of the last remaining dual slalom races in the pro circuit, for us oldies who remember them being everywhere! The Crankworx Dual Slalom is a fun event, notorious between riders who race each other head to head in a serious racing atmosphere with all the laughs of riding between friends. The weather here in Whistler was a little questionable with the sun peaking out momentarliy before the rain started coming down, not heavily but consistently. Both of the pump track winners, Barry Nobles and Caroline Buchanan were racing today, would te BMX bandits be a dark force?

As racing rolled on it did apprear those two would be a force to be reckoned with, looking very quick, as was Mitch Ropelato and Jill Kintner. As the finals came around all of these names were involved in them. At the end of racing Jill Kintner and Mitch Ropelato walked away on the top step.

Barry Nobles was looking very quick!
