Stoked On Slalom
On 9/12/2005 K-Rimes wrote in from Canada  (24.87.nnn.nnn)

I finally got off the DH bench and tried slalom and I'm HOOKED! I now realize why there's such a big following and tons of competitions... It's because it's FUN! I'm working on getting myself a set-up ASAP and there are a few guys in BC who are looking to arrange some grassroot races, in the meantime I'll be working on going fast through the courses. Hopefully I can get better at this whole slalom business and hit up the races in Cali. STOKED ON SLALOM!!!

Emeline ...
On 8/25/2005 Eli wrote in from United States  (71.102.nnn.nnn)

In response to your longboarding post ...

I would say that longboarding is easier than skateboarding. In my opinion, longboard is more like snowboarding, skimboarding or surfing than a skateboard is. It allows me to travel at higher speeds, and I feel I have much more control and balance on a longboard than I do on a skateboard. Instead of doing tricks, I enjoy going down hills and carving. Where are you located Emeline?

longboarding
On 8/22/2005 emeline wrote in from United States  (67.81.nnn.nnn)

well, i would like to try longboarding, i can already skateboard ok. im rather horrible at it but i can go down a moderate hill without killing myself. but i want to try longboarding but no one i know owns a longboard. i would like to try before going out and spending $100+ on a longboard. so just wondering, is it that much different than skateboarding?

Looking for people to skate with
On 8/13/2005 Eli wrote in from United States  (70.185.nnn.nnn)

Hi,
I've been skating my longboard for transportation for 4 years, and have recently started to get into downhill skateboarding. I will be moving to the South Bay (Gilroy) area in 1 month, and am looking for people to skate with that live in San Jose, Santa Cruz, San Francisco or anywhere in the bay area! I have a truck and a couple of boards, shoot me an email, thanks!

I'm currently living in Santa Barbara, CA for 1 more month if anyone is close to there and wants to skate some hills.

Investing In The Future Of Slalom
On 7/30/2005 Eddy wrote in from United States  (207.69.nnn.nnn)

Too any slalom sponsors out there Matt Gandy is an awesome slalom racer. If slalom is the future. Then one of you slalom sponsors pick Matt up. The kid is fast and he has the slalom STOKE. Matt you deserved the 20$ you won at the Chicago Race. Next time you punch Joe I in the stomach, DUCK MATT!!!!. Joe I has a quick left. Your Amigo Eddy Texas Outlaws.

Be Glad To Help!
On 7/26/2005 Lauren wrote in from United States  (208.14.nnn.nnn)

Hey Hibberd!
Glad to hear you want to start skateboarding. It is hard to teach you how on a forum (It would be easier in person) But I'll do my best! First you really need to get used to standing on a skateboard. Just hold onto something solid and roll back and forth on your skateboard. Once you're comfortable with the movement... Try just standing the skateboard with no help. But the biggest key is to figure out which foot will be the one in front, which of course is the most comfortable for you. Once you've got that down (Right foot forward is Goofy, and Left foot forward is regular) let me know and I'll keep going. This is a big step on its own.
Any questions... Email me or you can just post here!
GOOD LUCK
