Back from an amazing last day!


Again, many many thanks to all the people who helped Swoard before and during the three days.


Not in alphabetical order: Jean-Pierre, Romain, Franck, Arnaud, Julien, Sylvain, Anthony, Alex, Francesco, Evgeny (Ben), Guy, Andrew, José, Valérie, Christian, Sébastien, Thomas, Tali, Joerg, Nadia, Mallorie, Bernadette, Olivier, Vahur and more (sorry if I missed someone).
And many thanks to all the participants for their good vibes.

Highlights of the Swoard ECS 2010:
- About 230 participants, despite some people could not join because of the snow falls on Friday and the bad conditions for driving.
- 43 demo boards: 31 Extremecarver and 12 DUAL.
- Fresh snow on Saturday for testing the new model DUAL.
- The sun was back on Sunday and Monday, especially in the morning.
- More and more Italian and Russian riders joining the event!
- Again, the riders level is still higher and higher! This year I saw more riders with a fluid and smooth (push-pull) style! Bravo!
- The lessons (with the five EC instructors) were very successful. Special thanks to Arnaud, Sylvain, Anthony, Alex and Evgeny (Ben).

We miss you already!
