Gints Gailitis has quickly become one of the most active correspondents to the magazine. He's from Latvia, he's representing and reporting from the Soviet Union and we mistakingly call him Russian (which he didn't appreciate). Keith Hollien from Florida is heading to the World Cup in Germany, one of the major events at the time, and it's exciting times for the development of slalom in Europe. After the World Cup the Czech skaters are holding their Summer Camp, a must for all their slalomers and this year there's international participation. Pictures and stories from the camp in a coming issue.
