Palmer, I've got the Beer run on video to be released soon, complete with all of your antics, the best one being what you did in the seconds following the famed beer run.
K-Lee, I got the info, I'm stoked on the spread sheet, and am wanting to also back it up on paper JUST in Case. Hope your healing is going well.

If I remember right me and Will had the only runs in the 17 second range. If only I could have made the last gate on the beer run. Damn

Hackett got 3rd place my friends, behind Palmer and Will Brunson. It didn't matter though cause he won the overall event by smoking it at Harper Ditch. Next up, The All Around Challenge, directied and produced by TimeShip Racing, written and photographed by GBMII, starring
anyone that shows up. This naked talk is pretty weak but boy does it beat what going on over on the Slalom forum!!

Hey Simon!
I ride no skoolz on banks and in ditches all the time. I have 88s and they ride beautifully. You'll be able to get some rad slides on your 92s if you want to. I have been very happy with them. My 88s have a good amount of grip, but are hard enough to layout some fun berts. I have no complaints about them - hopefully you'll find the same to be true.

Sure the rain sucked at the pool party, but it sure is nice knowing that all these ditches are finally good an clean. gotta clean out some pools now, but all the dirt and crap are out of the ditches, now just watch out for little groms that don't care if your going 30mph down it, they WILL still get in your way at the last moment.
anyway gotta get out of the house and bomb some ditches!!!
Vert ramp sesh tonight?.............Palmer, gbmII, anyone?

Just ordered some 65mm 92a No Skoolz for my D'box that I use on banks and hopefully when I find a close one, pools. Just wondering what people thought about how they ride on the banks and ditches.
Ride On

Ditches are out in public therefore are public knowledge and can be taken advantage of and I have no problem turning someone onto a ditch. Pools are another story. Because I have kept my mouth shut I have had one permission pool to my avail for over a year now. Ya just gotta be careful about to whom you are giving out info. Don't want any stinky-style KOOKS ruining a good session.

Hey Gus,
I was in Houston in July the whole week that tropical storm was in the Gulf.......... Now that really hurt. 100* & 99% humidity. At least (as always) the BBQ was awesome.
It has been hot lately here w/ no fog relief for a while. This past week has been great.

K-Lee, that does sound a little painful. Hope you heal up soon.
"Had an awesome skate all by myself this morning with some ocean fog that has not been around a while."
Now that sounds like a great time... meanwhile back in the middle of Texas...

K-LEE, hope you're healin'.
Palmer; sounds like the wedding rocked! Let me know when the pool is open; I want to check it out (flail, flail).
See all you goons at the Challenge.

Hey sledgehammer, I wasn't posting rules or acting like a local or being a smart ass. I just would prefer to talk skating. You talk about naked young boys.
I just feel that your borderline pedophiliac rants are disgusting. Pedophiles are probably the most putrid forms of life on this planet. If there are any people that need to be totally eliminated, it's pedophiles. Children are always the victims. Pedophiles don't need to post or try to lure young kids through this forum.
My opinion only. No rules written or trying to be enforced. Some people might not agree w/ my opinion, that's life. I'm not trying to change minds, just letting you into my mind.
Also, state your real name and e-mail address so you aren't hiding. The guys that are revealing who they are are not afraid. I'm not afraid. Are you?
Now back to the real world... Had an awesome skate all by myself this morning with some ocean fog that has not been around a while. Nice and cool air that feels real good breathing while you are carving fast lines. I don't know if I was ripping, but I sure was smiling. Got to hang out a little afterwards and just chill w/ the great outdoors. I'm going to try to go back this evening, just because. Keep skating.

Gus,
Nope, Calvary wrecked my left hip and my right ring finger after a roller-kid dropped in right on top of me as I was carving the street bowl at full speed. Indian School got my right palm, wrist, elbow, shoulder, and hip. As I was trying to exit the ditch during my last run of the day, I noticed an old man peddling up the bike trail and I had too much speed to avoid him, so I went down on some of the roughest asphalt ever trying avoid another collision. I had a painful day last Saturday. Dual hippers suck, have to sleep on my back or stomach only.
Cabbage,
Unfortunately we won't be running another Bear race until next year I think. We will be skating the Bear and all the other wonderful ABQ ditches at the Sandia All Around Challenge on the 20th and the 21st of this month when we're not racing, jumping, spinning, or grinding. Breamo said some of the Gravity guys might be attending. No outlaw ditch races this time though, we got those out of the way in May. We're trying to be legit for this month's event, since it's high profile. Hopefully next year we'll have some more ditch races and a ditch style contest a-la EZ7.
"How much faster was Hackett then second place?" That one's easy, ZERO seconds. Hackett GOT second place at the Bear this year. Palmer was a few tenths ahead of him I think.

"you wouldnt like me when i naked"... your killin' me! HR
PS Please don't ride those ABQ ditches in the buff... sure, I know it sounds like fun... but I've seen a few of you guys and it would NOT be pretty...

Hey K-Lee, Calvary took your wrist also???
Hahaha, that's some crap isn't it?
My wrist STILL hurts, and I can't seem to be able to put any weight on it... specially after classes.
I've been too lazy to go get x-rays... But hey, me and Andre are probably hitting the funnel and chute this weekend, I just can't stop skating now!... It would be absurd.
Maybe we'll get some pics for your directory.
Gus.

Man I would love to make the bear race this year. actually give me a heads up on the big race, so I can contact Gravity to come race this year. I'm way down to let my sk8ing talk. I look forward to racing the"tribe" there. PALMER and GBMII is it on? Hope I get there this year, new house, new job, new baby,almost (engaged) new wife, daddy needs to break out to your scene. How much faster was Hackett then second place?
I'm at one with you "tribe" guys chill..
