Jack, Hope the New Year is going well for you! Looks like you have a very good vendor line-up for your calendar. Would it be possible to see a few thumbnail photos from the calendar?
I remember having the CW calendar up in my classroom with CBark's photo from the 2005 High Peak's Drifter TS race for about 3-4 months. Sweet photo Farid! Thanks alot, Art

Tunnel Updates Website

Hello!
Just a quick note to let everybody know that we have recently updated our website. We have also added some new products. The Tunnel Comp longboard is a modern version of the original 1976 Tunnel Competition board. We kept the camber and shape but made it longer and added concave. The final touch were some graphics featuring Tunnel downhill racer Michael McCreary bombing down Signal Hill and some modern construction.
We also added a re-issue of the Waldo Autry Cloud Model. Once again, it's a 9-ply birch board, no concave, and fiberglass top and bottom. The graphics are under the fiberglass resulting in a beautiful board, and Waldo will sign all 100 of the very limited edition.
We've added a few photos to the original Tunnel team section, but only one new interview - Waldo Autry.

Thanks!
Mike Tunnel

Khiro's New Tall Cone Bushings

The new Khiro Tall Cone bushings are awesome for slalom and probably every other kind of skateboarding. This is the shaped bushing that many of us have been creating for slalom using a dremmel tool. Now that the Khiro Tall Cones have arrived, the dremmel will no longer be needed. Thank goodness.

ATTENTION VENDORS

Hello Everyone,
I would like to bring to your attention an entity running foul in our industry. YourCornerStore is selling many of our products for insanely low prices. For instance, they are selling my bushings for $3.82 per pack. MSRP is $7.00 per pack. I believe they are posing as a distributor to get lower pricing, and then selling through an online storefront at ridiculously low margins. They are undercutting shops and hurting the industry as a whole in a BIG way.
If you are a manufacturer, send them a message. Let them know that they need to sell your products at a standard price, or their account is terminated. It is very unhealthy and unethical to do what they are doing. They are selling all of their products for far less than they are listed on the Manufacturer's own web pages!
If you are a shop owner, you should be outraged. They are stealing your business. Especially if you are paying normal shop cost, as well as overhead. You are being hurt. Tell your reps to report this to their companies.
Let's stop this before its too late.
Thanks, ~Zak Maytum, Venom bushings.

For well over a year Skaters have asked me to produce a "Tall Cone Bushing" for them, I have been working on this project for the past several months and it has been slow going due to a few hang up's. The bushings are now being sold so check with your local skate shop for availability. These "New Tall Cone Bushings" are produced out of the (Same) "Top Grade Urethane", the (Same) "Hardness's" and the (Same) "Colors" as all the other Khiro Bushings. Enough said now go skate.
Best wishes and always "Skate Safe" !
