Any vendor who can get me quality skate gear at a decent price without being a dick IS helping NCDSA. Its supposed to be a community, right? So a guy doing his job and doing it well is aok by me. Relax man, there are bigger, more importnat battles out there.

PCB, the mediums are actually fairly light, meaning perfect for my lightweight of 150lbs.

Barfoot!
On 7/13/2001 kaspian wrote in from (142.167.nnn.nnn)

Chuck, it's great to see you posting here! If you search the site for "barfoot" you'll find that your boards have been mentioned here many times, always favorably. There's even a Vendor's Corner where you can publicize the product as often as you like, guilt free ;~)

Hope you got the Comp Stripe back via UPS, btw.

peace & waves

swiss decks
On 7/13/2001 marc wrote in from (216.101.nnn.nnn)

I realize we need some stiffer versions of these decks. To make things smoother in the future, anyone can email me anytime with product requests. I sold out of s-shapes in 2 days because I had to "blind" order, plus, I'm a light weight(150lbs)---so get on those emails Big Guys, so I can send in a re-order
BTW-thanks for your support:)

convertions
On 7/12/2001 leo wrote in from (146.18.nnn.nnn)

1kg=2.20462lbs

so if you want to convert from kgs to lbs you multiply kgs by that quantity, and if you want lbs to kgs divide it..



have anybody hear about hughR?

kg - lb
On 7/12/2001 kaspian wrote in from (142.167.nnn.nnn)

It's not really *that* hard, at least to make a quick approximation. 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds, approximately.

So, for example, a weight range of 75-90 kg translates to, hmm, about 165-198 pounds, right? In other words, ultra-slender lightweight dudes ;~)

Weight and measurement converter.
On 7/11/2001 BoBo wrote in from (151.196.nnn.nnn)

I see that the weights in metric got us on this side of the pond confounded. I have a converter that'll take anything and convert it. It works on Kg to pounds and just about anything else you could want. It's small enough to e-mail so anyone who wants it can e-me and I'll send it to ya. It has come in handy more times than I care to think about.

products

A big KUDOS to you guys supplying the goods. If it weren`t folks like those at Longskate.com , Solidskate.com , Poolskater.com . and other individuals, the sport wouldn`t have grown as fast as it has. I am personally awaitng 2 decks, different sized Seismics, and gonna have to acquire umpteen sets of wheels to get that perfect stick.

We know you guys are trying your hardest to get the goods to us ASAP if to not to only end our incessant emails. I know I am not only in saying.....THANKS!!!

Marc, I note you have the Response at 37 3/4" long, that's gotta be a typo. Where are the reissue decks?

On 7/11/2001 PCB wrote in from (207.172.nnn.nnn)

Marc, can you say whether you made a mistake converting kg to pounds, or if Indiana started making the deck configurations in new weight ratings? Direct links to what look to be the same decks, but for weight classes different than what your site says:

slalomers.com
On 7/8/2001 Glen wrote in from (216.102.nnn.nnn)

I don't see a problem with someone making a page for slalom related stuff, especially video clips, pictures and race results posting.
Hugh's homemade board and the longboard lounge on Yahoo don't compete with NCDSA, nor does Lonecore's site or any of the other longboard, speedboard, or oldschool interest, web pages. I think that the more longboard, slalom and oldschool related things that show in a web search is all the better for everyone.
NCDSA is established and will continue to be the top discussion group/message board site around, regardless of other sites.

slalomers.com
On 7/8/2001 c-money wrote in from (205.188.nnn.nnn)

I agree with Rene's comment about slalomers.com. Because I found NCSDA a little over a year ago-I'm back into boarding after 10 years, have a blast with my kids (though they are sticking to blades-bummer. I think I just intimidate them ;}) ), have met some old school/slalom/longboarders here in Chicagoland, and solidskate.com, longskate.com and poolskater.com are realizing significant revenue. . .Long Live NCDSA!

FAQs
On 7/4/2001 Adam wrote in from (202.58.nnn.nnn)

I can see having an 'FAQ' link atop each forum page (like the 'Tasty Scans' link in Slalom). Who will step up and write an FAQ?! DT started one some time back, but I think a more topical approach would work better.

I'll accept volunteer FAQ writers on a per-forum basis. 10 FAQs per forum to start. If your answers reference a vendor, be sure to list several vendors to maintain objectivity. Subject to final edits by yours truly.

I agree with both HC and Rene. It would be nice if there was a slalom FAQ and it would be nice if it was here.

HC, you can already find videos and pics of pumping and running cones here. There was plenty links of video from Morro Bay post a few weeks ago in the Slalom forum. Chris also has some video already of pumping at his site.

The one problem I could see in a FAQ page is that would have to be very subjective. There are a ton of 'it depends'. It depends on...where you ride....whats the pavement like...what is your size...etc.
Some people like huge quivers, some find one or two boards is good enough.
