Check with CS at nosewheelie.com or Mellowcat at bowlrider.com for the 411.
Better yet, hit the Clairemont Y pool, Coronado, Monster, Crow, Washington St. You have some killer places down south besides ditch riding.

You guy's can talk about all the ditches you want. You haven't seen anything until (or unless you have already been) you come here to Albuqueque. We will blow your mind! You might think I'm joking but you just don't know! Catch a tail wind, and we will show you how it is done. Cement surfing at it's fullest! Just keep your eye's open, and be prepared. Don't forget to say hi to the friendly neighbors. Safety meeting at the top. See ya at the bottom!

Hey! Anyone ever hit the banks by the stadium at EKU (Richmond, KY). I did about 7 years ago, but haven't been back in a while and was wondering if they're as fun as I remember. If you're near by, check 'em out.

My runs are slow and sucky, but the video is well done. Thanks Josh!
Slowest run at the Bear yet.
This is how I'll be running at the race. No need to worry about me as competition. The slower, the better, right?

Seeing that pic of phlugerville brought back many memories. Any time we went to Austin for a show we would always leave early enough to get in a good phlugerville session. You can still find me haunting some of the old San Antonio ditches, some of them forgotten but itching for action. Right now there are some ditches that are being sessioned by skaters of all ages If anybody is bound for San Antonio feel free to email me, I can give you a guided tour of San Antonio skate spots (some remembered some forgotten). I am always looking for somebody to do some slalom and downhill with.

Not racing? I thought that was why my bossman drug you through the jaws of the Bear! Practice! No worries, I have to work Sandia, but I'm a free-playa (okay, spectator) for the Banked Slalom. Talk to you in the pits.

Thanks to all the chilled NM locals who hooked us up on the Legends Tour last week. Bear was an "eye opener" to say the least. Indian School made the whole crew's "all-time" list. Check http://www.floridaskater.com/index.htm
for the docu-drama of the event. I'll see ya'll on race day (photos only, I'm leavin' my stick at home). GBMII

Hey Glen D: Could be that those handrails are freestyle's newest banked high jump set-up, otherwise, u r right about the rails destroying the free-flowing concept.

build banks

I went by a skatepark that is under construction yesterday. There were some real nice banks being poured. The only problem was that the designers think that skaters can't climb up the walls, so they put handrails all over those nice banks destroying any potential flow.
