I just received my Indy 85mm from Eric at http://www.monkeywrenchmachineworks.com
...he took a 101mm hanger and machined it down to 85mm. Perfect for spinning 360's.
Eric machines the inside of the hanger and the axle locknut so you don't need washers and he installed true 8mm diameter 4140 CrMo axles for the perfect bearing fit. Eric is amazing...i know he works on a lot of slalom racers equipment but if anyone's interested in a truck for spinning 360's they can contact him via his web site.

The David Blain was being performed today by Mr. Holl
@ the Rengstroff park Sunday Jam, It's Not what you think it is,
It's a very funny rail trick. Maro made the trick from up north and
was bustin a few moves, Mr Holl's " The Professor" secret weapon
is Subway chocolate chip cookies ( 3 for a buck ). JK showed up
this time with his Casper board with what appeared to be bars of
ivory soap for tail and nose bones, then ate raw hotdogs for an hour.
No show from " Sleeping Beauty " HC. You suck.
Oj's broken ankle is almost healed up now, and is trying more rail combo's.
Great day @ the park.
Skate on.

Hi,
I'm doing an article on the history of skateboarding in the Central Coast area for Blue Edge magazine.
Do you have information on the guy that owned Santa Barbara Skateboards?
Any suggestions for historical info., contacts or photos? They will pay something for photos.
Who were the pioneers of Central Coast skateboarding?
What have been the major benchmarks in the development of skateboarding in this area?
I have to keep the article under 750 words. How about a catchy title?
Thanx, Bob

Orange Julius was spotted this morning at 7-11 nourishing himself on the finer things that establishment has to offer. Will he learn 2 new moves this week at the Rengstorf Park F-style event or will it be 3? Will HC show up and ride his new Primo deck? Will John the "iron chef" bring his yo-yo board and get with the program? Will Ravitch show? Will Taco bust some more crazy footwork? Will MaRo make the drive this week or will his Band be recording?
Rengstorf Park, Mtn View, CA 11AM this Sunday, be there.

Sgt.Holl (now known as " The Professor " )
Seen spinning 360's on steel wheels! Richie be afraid, Very afraid
of your record, you are going down, well maybe not for a while.
Ravitch spotted doing handstands and lots of rail combinations,
and you thought the old man could only Slalom.
Flatland in Nor Cal is on the rise. Come see John Kim }" The Iron Chef "
ride his long board with the thickest tail and nosebone and even on
two different trucks ( randall / Tracker combo ) Funny stuff.
Sunday 11:00am Rengstoff park, Mountain View, CA.

Hey Lewis,

A North Carolina freestyle session will take place this Sunday, March 21, for anyone interested.
Mike Foster, Frank Lee, John Sargent, and I are planning to meet at the Leesville Road Middle School and High School (Tommy Harward's local spot) around 11 a.m. or so to skate for the afternoon.
Anyone interested in driving there to skate is welcome. The school is at 8405 Leesville Road, N.C. Just look up directions on MapQuest.com or Expedia.com. We'll be skating on the smooth, concrete basketball courts you can see in some of Tommy's video footage. (Tommy, unfortunately, will not be joining us, however, as he will be leaving on his honeymoon that day.)
I know some of you guys like Chris Price have expressed an interest, so hopefully we'll have a few more there.
Frank Lee, John Sargent and I are confirmed, and Mike Foster sounded like he was seriously considering it. As an added enticement, I even mailed Mike a copy of some rare home movie footage of Rodney Mullen warming up for a contest in 1984 in Huntington Beach, CA. So hopefully he should get the footage today and be inspired to join us.
I'm planning to skate for the afternoon and then maybe getting some dinner. So if anyone can make it at anytime from 11 to 5 p.m., that should work out.
Terry

Does anyone here have any real interest in the SLO contest or am I just spinning my steelwheels?
Local interest is pretty good, but I'm hoping I can attract some of the crews from Edison and Rengstorff.
I have that 35 and over Open division for you retired and re entering x pros and legends like Gary Holl, Andre Walton, John Pope, Bobby, Mary Zerkie and others.
I'm out selling Axxess 2-for-1 Dinner/Golf/Entertainment coupon books to raise the $1200. I want to run the event and be able to pay per diem to the staff. I need product for prizes. I'm selling banner space for $50. I can have a booth or two for $25. each for the business license variance. I think Casper may take a booth.
Help me if you can with leads for sponsord etc.
Thanx, Bob
