Administrators Horton Posted November 22, 2012 Administrators Share Posted November 22, 2012 World Cup Indonesia is this weekend. I have $20 that says Karina Nowlan wins the woman's slalom. Who wants a piece of the action?

Members ski4xtc Posted November 22, 2012 Members Share Posted November 22, 2012 Has anyone been able to find the site location on Google Earth? Any information about the site and conditions? Have not been able to find much information about this World Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller MattP Posted November 22, 2012 Baller Share Posted November 22, 2012 I am assuming its taking place at the Jakabaring Sport Complex in Palembang. Its a man make lake that was designed for rowing, skiing, dragon boat and kayak racing. If the world cup committee is bringing slalom to the site you can be assured it is going to be somewhat decent conditions. The Web cast will be taking place here http://www.youtube.com/user/iwsfworldcup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ski4xtc Posted November 22, 2012 Members Share Posted November 22, 2012 @mattp, I think I might have just found the lake. -3.018598,104.795401 I wonder if anyone can confirm this? From my memory, the World Cup has been famous for picking sites with poor skiing conditions. They get the crowds instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted November 22, 2012 Baller Share Posted November 22, 2012 @skix4tc you are right but, there has not been a slalom event in a while. The world cup shows us who the toughest skiers are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ski4xtc Posted November 22, 2012 Members Share Posted November 22, 2012 @Brady, I had searched for it several times. Today I cut and pasted the exact wording Matt had in that order and somehow that got me closer. Previously I had searched for Palembang Jakabaring Sport Complex. I also had scanned the entire city looking for lakes but only could find the river and ponds that were not big enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members andjules Posted November 22, 2012 Members Share Posted November 22, 2012 Is Whitney McClintock back? I think I saw a tweet that she was going to be there... first tournament back off an injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brady Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 @ski4xtc. Amazing! Especially since it is in kuala lampur! I am impressed. I will be more impressed if you take @Horton up on his bet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller A_B Posted November 22, 2012 Baller Share Posted November 22, 2012 The IWWF lists it will be held at the Sports Complex, but there are some articles of water ski events being held a Jakabaring Lake. That I think is the lake that @ski4xtc noted above, at least, that is the same lake I came up with, before seeing the post above, so that makes two independent hits on that lake. One of the articles states that there a few trees and is subject to high wind. http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2011/11/18/water-skiing-indonesia-rules-waves-jakabaring-lake.html http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2012/11/02/palembang-host-waterskiing-c-ships.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ForrestGump Posted November 22, 2012 Baller Share Posted November 22, 2012 It is not at all unprecedented for The World Cup Committee to go to sites that are WAY rolly and/or rough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
