New Snowkite Global Speed Ranking.

Feyd - 12-12-2012 at 10:11 AM

So I've been talking a lot with Racheal Miller the owner of Stormboarding and host of the Kitestorm event in Vermont. As many of you know Stormboarding hosted a world wide speed ranking. We feel that Hardwater Kiting should host a new ranking to pick up where Stormboarding's ranking left off.

The Stormboarding ranking is what actually what drew me into kiting and in the end lead to my sponsorship by Peter Lynn.

I've set it up on the website and I'd like to know what people think. Bear in mind this is very bare bones right now but if there are any issues with the rules or who qualifies I'd like to know now before the end of the month when it goes live.

Please check it out..

Looks good Chris. Didn't Stormboarding let you submit a pic of yourself holding the gps as evidence? Maybe a gps log file has to be submitted, but it might be cool if folks could upload a pic too.

Got it on there now Krum. Was having some confusion with the layout and getting the fields to do what they are supposed to do.

There are fields for uploading data and image files on the submission form. As far as uploading images goes, try to keep it clean boys.:embarrased::lol:

Let me know what you think.

Cool! We had a few guys make it onto the rankings on the Stormboarding site.

Is it possible for you to change the way the results are displayed from "portrait" to "landscape" so that all fields are displayed on the same page?

Or change the width of the reader so that all fields are displayed on the same page?

or the margins on the page?

size of the font?

I'm trying to figure that out ZG. At the very least I can alter the way the data is imported or change the order of the fields on the submission page.
