Event History
French rider Mathieu Crepel has been putting together a day at the famous Pic du Midi for a few years now, but this time round La Crepe is announcing a full-on 3-day event, that changes the whole concept of a TTR slopestyle contest. The Mathieu Crepel Inviational is set to take place from the 7th to the 9th of February 2008 in Tourmalet Domain, Pyrenees, France.
The principle is that when the riders arrive to the event, each one of them will write down two tricks on a paper that will go in a box from which the judges will pick randomly four tricks. So the four tricks chosen will be performed by all the riders in a jam session.
The set up will be shaped by the HO5 crew and it’s a double line, with two kickers. The first feature is an old ski jump built in 1936, in the forest and the second is a step-up jump. The contest will move along from the simplest tricks to the most technical ones at the end. It will be very interesting for the riders, who will be able to really concentrate on the execution of the tricks. For the crowd, it will be very interesting to see the different styles of the riders and how the same trick can look completely different from one rider to the next.
The same criteria are taken into consideration for the judging like at every other contest: amplitude, style, landing etc. But it will be also very important for the riders to have previously done the four chosen tricks. And at the end, two or three riders will go head to head in a final with two runs.
