Hi everyone!
Many of you already know of the freestyle jam I'm putting together in NYC. As some of you know, it's been difficult to get a good location for the event. Though NYC has many great places to freestyle, the Parks Dept. can be a pain in the butt to deal with for anything skateboard related. My idea has always been to make the jam as visible as possible, but all the locations that would be ideal for their visibility, are busy with other events or are un-permitable for one reason or another. Regardless, even if we have to go without a permit, the jam will be happening on Saturday the 25th of October at one of two places, the Bandshell at Central Park or in Tompkins Square Park in the East Village. Both of these locations are easy to get to within Manhattan and I will provide exact info of how to find each one when a choice is made. I want to keep this jam as grass roots as possible this first time around, but I plan to be putting together a Pro-Am Freestyle event together for next summer, which should be a blowout. The jam will start around 11:00AM and go until about 5:00 or 6:00PM. That's it for the moment, I will be in touch soon or if you have questions in the meantime, you can contact me directly at (718)-349-7481 or on cell at (917)-679-1196....Thanks everyone!........Joe Humeres
P.S. If any of you plan on staying the night in New York, there will be two additional events happening that I will be checking out. Saturday night there is a party at the Greenpoint Bowl (a new private bowl, but you are all welcome) in Brooklyn and on Sunday, also in Brooklyn, at the KCDC Skateshop there will be a skateboard jam/BBQ to celebrate the release of Bodega Skateboards new video "Gotta Getta Clip". I will have additional info on both events at the Jam.....Joe.

HB SKATE JAM Awesome time at the park enjoying the sun and great company. Props to Mike Mullen -- who showed up in the late afternoon and was tearing it up -- and to the other newcomers Adam Bateham, MSK, Mike Schwartz, Steve Sanchez, and Thor. Great to see the new faces come out and skate with the Jam regulars -- Richy Carrasco, John Pope, Bob Staton, Nils . . . The Benner Clan and Per Welinder and family came out as well – what a treat!
Here’s a look at some of the crew in action . . .
Stay tuned for a link to a photo gallery on this event in the near future.
We’ll probably call another Jam for early December. If you aren’t on the mailing list and want to be -- send your addy to me at the above link. Cheers!

The freestyle jam went off today. I got there a bit too late, just in time for Per Welinder to take off. Richy and John Pope had the 360 sesh going on, spinning until, well, until my head was spinning. And thanks to Richy's and John's coaching (plus the use of Richy's steel wheels), I managed to break my 26 year old personal record of 16 360s. I thought I hit 20, but Richy says 17. Either way, I'm stoked! Hanging out with Richy doing freestyle is like being at the WLAC races- I learn more in a few hours than I did the previous couple of months. Can't wait for the next one...

Yeaaaaaaaaaaash! Per Wilander is going to try and make it-- He is a soccer fan and the biggest event of the year is going on.There should be a good mix of riders there, At the last one Economy showed up with some of his old longboards and had a blast! Pope is going to try and make it out! We usually have a good 360 session goin off!

Hey all....... Tough to see us all without F-forum. Having spoken to a few people recently, I have confidence that it will be back up soon. To keep you all posted.....it has been hard to secure a location for the NYC Jam on the 25th of Oct. Regardless, I am going to make something work and hope to see as many of you as possible make your way here. I already have confirmation from a good number of you, and I know it will be a blast to have you all here. This Jam is not meant to be a blow-out of skaters, with hundreds in attendance......, but more importantly, an opportunity for us in this area of the country to skate and turn others onto freestyle. The blowouts will come later......... hope you can all make it and I will keep you posted on this forum and personal E-mail....thanks all..Joe.

Hi guys, I emailed both Lillis and Denis about F-Forum website: So far no answer. The server seems to be still down. I guess that it is Denis' private server, so he won't be able to check any mails...
Bernhard just put up a list of people that signed up for the contest, NOT the results yet.

Hi everyone..!
Just a quick note to let you all know that I am working to put together a freestyle jam in New York City for Saturday the 25th of October. I am talking with Central Park authorities and will know by this coming Monday wether it can work or if they will need more lead-time to permit. I'll keep you all posted, as some have been in the loop and others not. NYC is tough when it comes to these events............wish us all luck..........till soon..Joe.

Check out the Entnies site and click on the Response tour, go to schedule and read the West Chest Borderline Contest write up, the Philly Connection is infiltrating the industry whether they like it or not!

LYNN COOPER WHERE ARE YOU???
Just checked Ebay and found a video, WHEELIN' IN THE YEARS - PART 1, for auction. And to my surprise, I was at a few of the contests on the tape. Below is a link to the Ebay video auction... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3630428252&category=16265
What I want to know is does anybody here know where I can get a copy (original release w/cover) of this video? Lynn, are you out there???

Spencer: The Huntington Beach Jam is set for next weekend - Sunday October 19 -- and it is still on. Come out and connect.
Troy: the F-Forum (formerly ReverseFlat) did move to (http://freestyleskateboard.com/) but their server seems to be down right now -- maybe for updates? Keep checking!
Freestyle Mailing List: Anyone who isn't receiving direct notification of upcoming jams and wants to -- shoot me an e-mail with you address and I'll add you to the list. No Spam just good stuff.
Cheers!

I would enjoy being involved with a freestyle demo at any slalom race event next year within a certain amount of distance. I am sure Mike would also enjoy such an event. Send me a e-mail. (Bensonalanr@aol.com)
