SRA RULING ON MODIFIED SKATEBOARDS
|
|
On 4/14/2006 HACKETT - EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - SRA
wrote in from
United States
(68.66.nnn.nnn)
The SRA board of directors has made the following decision on the use of 6-wheel skateboards and or other modified skateboard racing equipment.
The SRA Board of Directors defines a skateboard as 1 board, 2 trucks, and 4 wheels. Any deviation from these main elements of 1 board, 2 trucks, and 4 wheels will be considered a "Modified Skateboard" such as a "Luge", "SkateCar"
or "Roller Blades"
Below is a list of official rulings of the SRA board of Directors which comprises of:
David Hackett - Former Jr. Men's Slalom World Champion 1975, current European TS Champion (2005) Executive Director, SRA
Chicken Deck - Former Overall World Champion Slalom Racer 2002 - Co Executive Director, SRA
Steve Olson - Hester Series Champion, Overall winner Skateboarder Magazine Readers poll. Co Executive Director, SRA
Tony Magnusson - Legendary Vert Champion 4 time winner and current Munster Mastership Vert Champion; 2001, 02, 03, 04; President, Osiris shoes. Co Executive Director, SRA
1) Who decides if 6-wheelers (and other Modified skateboard Racing equipment) is allowed or not? (SRA decision: Independent Race organizers)
2) Will the race be accepted and sanctioned by the SRA (SRA Decision: NO, the SRA defines a skateboard as 1 board, 2 trucks, 4 wheels at this time, and one of the SRA's goals is to preserve skateboard racing. Modified Skateboard races may be run by other organizations; but not in conjunction with The SRA.
3) Are there limits to wheel size, board length and width, bearing size, truck geometry, etc...?(SRA decision: NO, as long as your skateboard comprises of 1 board, 2 trucks, 4 wheels there are no limits as to what you may do to it or how you may customize those basic components.)
The SRA's "Global Goal" is to advance the sport of Skateboard Racing; in order to do this the SRA recognizes the need to present Skateboard Racing in it's purest form. Skateboarders, racing Skateboards against each other or against the clock to determine a winner.
A skateboard is defined as: 1 board, 2 trucks, 4 wheels.

Hey Hoffa...your e-mail is bouncing...you still looking to get something started?
Been wanting to run some cones on the UD Arena Parking Lot Entry Ramps. You can close the gates and not worry about traffic. I was the City Champ of Dayton slalom back when I was 12 in 1977 on the exact same ramps!!?? Plus a nice little paved bank on the sides of the ramps if you wanna hit that.
HERE IS WHAT YOU POSTED A MONTH AGO....

if anyone ever gets around to such a thing, i would be stoked. especially if it has a run similar to a ice luge track with full on banked turns and speeds in the 90s. i doubt it will ever happen, thats why i need to win the lottery and build my own on the big island, Hawaii. The typical grade on the kohala-kona side near the mountain is 18-22%. i guess i'll have to keep skating it in my dreams. shoots.

I have been skating friday nites at SDSU untill it got hot there. You have a skate club @ UCSD right ? Sector 9 will hold a race @ SDSU but we need help.I propose two downhill races. One @ your campus and one at SDSU . If your skateclub can get the school to agree and maybe get SDSU to may up a skateclub I will get top riders there to show up and help get your club going big time. What do you think? It will be downhill racen.School againt school with lots of news and media coverage and bring the mascotts and the chreeleaders, it will be big!I am sure that The local collages wants some action too. The summer of 2007 to get all in order, lets do it! My e-mail is kludycrew@cox.net, I will work with you guys to get you up to speed.

well shawn and i have exchanged a few civil emails :), and i'd like to reiterare that i don't mean to attack him. i got upset at the idea of some millionaire coming in and potentially changing the sport... a chair lift longboard resort... nuff said... my faavorite thing about downhill longboarding is how close and accessable the community is. talk like this makes me feel like that is being threatened. so my apologies, but it a longboard resort gets built i'll cry and then whoop some butt.

hmm what a conicidence... Downhill Conspiracy Longboarding (DCL) is a group of riders in the fort collins area. we've been riding under that name for a year and a half now. the guys i ride with in DCL are some of the best riders in colorado and they're definately the most fun! we started making crappy homemade decks years ago and were using mittens and rollerblade wrist guards for sliding before slide gloves were even commercialized. we slowly met more and more individuals who were as passionate as us. it's a conspiracy, and we're dangerous brother. i don't know when you started calling your 'company' by the same name, but make no mistake: THIS DCL has NOTHING to do with commercialism, and the day i ride a fuc*in lift to the top of a hill like i'm on some amusement park ride is the day longboarding loses it's soul. the people's DCL is in it for the carve, the stoke, the history, the community. I think your company should be called WAL-MART LONGBOARDING. thanks to all the real rippers for reading this, who know that the only thing more to 'see and experience' is that next black betty road with your close friends. i apologize for my rudeness, and in no way mean to attack 'shawn' as an individual, i don't ebven know him. but we've all seen what commercialism does, it's up to US THE PEOPLE to cut it in the bud. keep the name if you want, but remember, there's another DCL, and that DCL is keepin it real.

Also we have a world class skater here thats haveing his dreams ruined by laws. He needs help. Stevan is probally going to prison for what he does. He got written a reckless endangerment citation for haveing kids watch him. He was recklessly endangering the lives of the chilldren that were watching him. Now the DA believe he is Attempting suicide and Steve has nobody to help him say other wise. Then i see on the news this REAL life siderman fag who llegally climbs buildings with no safty and people love him for it. Well he could fall and land on some one. And Stevan in endangering the lives of of the kidz cuz there were watching. ARE f#@!ING KIDDING ME. Stevan built his empire no one knew of this 15 year old sport so he no help from sponsers. he made his own after rideing for sector 9 for 8 years. Now Multi-Billion dollar corperations want him. The Corp. that helps him own all the coca cola vending machines coin mechs and all fed ex and ups drop boxes. Stevan has 12 years left to live his life, and he is looking a 11-60 years in prison just cuza skate boarding. its not happening. People should support him like we are and watch him make world history that may never die. Stevan has choosen to die showing the world gravity manipulations that werent evan thought of yet, just like how Tony Hawk showed the world how he learned to manipulate the skate boards extremely powerfull Gravity field. Well s#@! i seen Stevan do is INSANE i'll give you a hint A retromotioned 900 gravitation spin. it is with out a dought this new form of skateing is the next Installment of learning "Can this gyro possably do more than these ollies kick flip shove its???
