Joining before I can't
On 5/23/2007 Francois wrote in from United States  (67.88.nnn.nnn)

Being firmly grounded in the middle of the new and old guidelines for masters inclusion, I figure that I'd better join in the club before I'm in eligible. It would be a pity to waste all of this experience and guile.

A sincere congratulations to the balance of the division, some folks take up golf at our age.

Be Seeing You,

Fran

OK, I turn 47 on Saturday, so I'm still a nominal "master" until the age line gets correctly raised to 50.

Racen Masters
On 5/21/2007 Kludy Sr. wrote in from United States  (68.8.nnn.nnn)

I guess if there was a downhill race for Masters I would want to run that one.
Nothing to worry about, just race because if there is a rider on the line with me at 45 years of age, HE KNOWS HOW TO RIDE A SKATEBOARD . I AM UP FOR THAT.
i ONLY BET WITH MY LIFE BUT IF I DID BET MONEY , I WOULD BET THERE ARE ATLEAST 12 RIDERS MY AGE THAT WOULD LIKE TO RACE DOWNHILL .

Turning 50
On 5/20/2007 Evans wrote in from United States  (66.214.nnn.nnn)

I'm turning 50 this year in August, so should I race or coach?

What if I win TS Pro and TS Masters, has that ever been done before?

I feel like I'm turning 30, just with more experiences! Stay a kid and play forever!

50 Should be Masters !
On 5/19/2007 Rene CANNONBALL Carrasco wrote in from United States  (71.129.nnn.nnn)

------------------------------

Lavin -

I agree with you. Masters division should be 50 & over.

I'm gonna post below - what I posted here in 2004 ! -
-regarding age of Masters Division.

================================================

On 9/3/2004 renecarrasco.com wrote in from United States (66.81.xxx.xxx)

I feel it should be 50 yrs. old - for the Senior Division.

The Senior PGA & Karate Tournaments do that.

There's more guys turning 50 this year - - -

I'll be 53 on Oct. 3rd .

Us 50 yr. olds got a good "2 more years to battle it out"...

-before Evans turns 50 ! .....then we're cooked !

Thanks Adam for this forum !

See you all @ Morro Bay.


............-Rene' Cannonball Carrasco !

========================================


BTW ~ Surfing does that too.


Oh well,


Take care,

masters?
On 5/17/2007 LAVIN wrote in from United States  (69.49.nnn.nnn)

Isabelle, Claude would know better than me from a global perspective but I do not think 45 is standard across our industry here in the states. I have been to large events where "masters" raced in their own class. I have seen 50 and 45 and that's about it - those two ages.

masters?
On 5/15/2007 isabelle wrote in from United States  (209.66.nnn.nnn)

i was just at the MightyMommaSkateORama in laguna niguel last mother's day and there were 3 other ladies (my self the only 45+er in the bunch) who want to create/skate a masters division in pro pool comps like the ProTech pool party (also last weekend).
is this age cut-off arbitrary or unified across the skating industry? we want to get masters demos going so WE CAN SKATE and promote skatboarding to a not-so-core crowd - ie, ladies!
thanks for any help.

old skate movie?
On 4/25/2007 surftile wrote in from United States  (71.111.nnn.nnn)

Does any one remember an old skate boarder movie where these kids
are just skating in straight leg pants short clean cut "beach boy" haircuts,
and this old gal in front of a shop throws rocks on the side walk to trash them
it was a short befor the main feature at the movies, I think.
you
see I was about 5 or6 and at a drive in near Santa Cruz Cal. around 69-71
or did I just dream this?
