Hi Skaters, A very pleasant Suprise today, as the visiting overseas skaters had a training run on the Toas track, it was obvious that the Indonesian girl Eri Marina Yo,is very strong & an International class skater, but to win the mens race basically you will have to Grab the Tiger by the tail, the tiger in the form of Kim Bum-Sik Tiger from Korea who looked very strong. Forme personally the most pleasing aspect was the Technical form shown by the 4 young Indians coached by HariOm Gupta, in December he was in Singapore for the slalom World champs & we were able to help steer him in the right direction & do not be suprized if these 4 skaters feature well in the results. Sarvpreet Singh 12 years, Mohit Malik 13, Rohit Goyal 14 & Santinder Singh 19 all showed a very high Technical level, with full crosses on the tricky right hand bends, plus good body weight transfer, plus fitness & speed. Cheers Bill
