BUOYTROTTING, travel commentaries by Mauro Robustelli
On this slope for the first time I put a triple on the steepest point. This was useful to improve the speed on the keypoints (wave and parabolic curve). The slope is very wavy and even, and it is therefore quite difficult to set, and to combine natural and artificial movements. Of course such a slope is very interesting and funny for both the public and the carvers. The one's who had some difficulties were the female athletes. Most of them are not aggessive enough and suffer the slope. Some go in a defensive position before jumps or parabolic curves and risk, as they bring back their weight, to leave the curve in a risky back position. I think that a more accurate inspection of these keypoints could help.
