Hi All,

As those who came to GP5 know, we trialled a Video Projector during the event. (See News Item above)

For the Time Trials, it gave timing information from the new timing system. For other races, we put live camera footage to the screen.

There are plenty of Australian skaters now with experience on the MPC Road War, after I think everyone on the Australian team used Road War XF on the road and marathon in Haining, China last week.
On the track, the Australian guys were using Black Track XF and feeds@yuku.com (Dial 311) http://elthamskate73613.yuku.com/topic/1180 Sun, 04 Oct 2009 13:33:57 GMT http://elthamskate73613.yuku.com/topic/1179/t/MPC-Road-War-Dandenong.html Road War wheels.
I have been skating on this wheel on-and-off since its release a few months ago, on smooth asphalt, open asphalt, and concrete and found them to be very, very fast wherever I have taken them so far... but that has not been at a race venue we use regularly in Victoria.

SkatePace TV is offering Volunteer Opportunities in the area of Presenters / Interviewers and Camera Operators.

While most of the race coverage I can handle myself, I need a few others around to help expand on the coverage and hopefully finally take the coverage to Community TV.

The Presenter / Interviewer position would involve conducting interviews at the major events soon after races finish, and also presenting "pieces to camera" to link... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (michcos) http://elthamskate73613.yuku.com/topic/1176 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 15:24:56 GMT http://elthamskate73613.yuku.com/topic/1175/t/2009-Southern-Cross-speed-skating-competition.html Details have been released of the 2009 Southern Cross

Track temperature,
Wind,
Track shape,

I have just found out that there is a chance that the 2010 event in Albury MIGHT NOT clash with the Ken Sutter next year.

If this was the case, would there be any interest from any of you in getting a minibus for a group trip to this event in Feb 2010? You would be in fairly good hands - I wouldn't be driving - but I am a good Conductor (ha ha!)
