Don't give John J the time of day.

It's probably just 66 trying to stir things up again.

As for Chaput. I may not like everything he does, but skateboarding is certainly better because of his expertise.

Sorry SC , just not a Chaput fan and I really have to question anyone who
would stand by him and his actions.

TF really is a good guy - just young.

Chaput?
Great wheels. But as they say "Underneath all the glitter....."

John: True, Chaput hasn't posted here in ages, but do you really care? Are you saying you're jonesing for Chaput talk, or did you just feel the need to stand up for the sad little troll?

TF: Cowering little wankers posting anonymously like yourself don't count for much. Chaput probably sells as many wheels to the people that don't like him as to the people that do.

For that matter, what boycott talk? Maybe you should try some thorazine to make the voices stop.

boycott
On 9/7/2007 TF wrote in from Canada  (216.9.nnn.nnn)

That boycott talk shut Chaput up like he had jaw surgery.

Bahahahahahahahaha

What a tool

Adam - I'm sure he contributes to your site but even you must be disappointed that he doesn't post on his own forum.

Chris - ever tried prozac? Or lithium?

yo chris chaput, sorry if this topic has been covered previously, but what where you riding at the paskapoo DH?looks very interesting, dropthrough tail, topmount front? im interested to know whether there are any physics behind this setup, or is it purely based on trial and error and past riding experience?

Utah Down Hillers
On 6/25/2007 Erek Shaffer wrote in from United States  (205.127.nnn.nnn)

LETS RACE!!!!!!

This Sunday and all of them after, We will be riding Suncrest Drive on South Mountain in Draper, UT. THIS IS A VERY FAST HILL!!!!!
If you are not confortable with speed, You should just watch.
In full tuck with a pack, We have seen 65's. If you were by your self doing a little air breakin, You could expect 45's. This IS NOT FOR THE AM's. Helmet and pads are required. Lethers and full helmets are suggested. The racin starts at 1 pm. To get there,

exit I-15 at the 14600 s exit(prison) and head east,
take Highland Dr until Traverse Ridge(here is a service station for fuel and hidration) head east,
miles up you will hit a stop sign with a four way, head east,
we all meet at the top of Suncrest Drive @ one pm
if we beat you up there, You should see signs that say START.

Bring a clean car so you can ride people back to the top. we all drive down and then take one car back up until we run out of cars at the botom. all races cost $1.(incentive to ride) you win- $5 or $6 in the pocket. You loose, Big deal a buck. You will ride with some fun people, so come on out!!!


Now GO skate!!!

ask about wheels
On 6/24/2007 jaxxx- luge brazil wrote in from Brazil  (200.193.nnn.nnn)

i want to buy new wheels for my luge, (using blue krypto 85 ). but i cannot decide wich wheel, i have 6 wheels on my luge (it is 15 kg, and im 75 kg)

i would like to use the fly's 90 mm (dunno the duro, probably 81a), but i have heard that those big wheels are not so fast like the 83mm

and im interested on gumballs too..... can i have some words of u about all of it?

tks, abec11 is higly recomended by all brazilan riders, (less those sponsored by moska...)

Anti everything
On 6/21/2007 Chris Chaput wrote in from United States  (72.134.nnn.nnn)

Because it's not all about Chris Chaput. Why are you posting anonymously? What are you so afraid of? Is there anything that you actually stand FOR, or are you just one of those small dogs who likes to bark out what he's AGAINST, as long as he's safely hidden behind the door?

why is it you post everywhere, but here on your own forum?

you know you're reading this.

it makes a very large statement. not a good statement about your mental

well being. but a large statement.

OK
On 6/16/2007 kludy wrote in from United States  (68.8.nnn.nnn)

I was skating to my local pub last nite and found why going fast is so great.
BECAUSE I CAN, hA ! Any other type of skateboarding is more about turning, jumping, sliding or granding. Speed is the one thing that at the rightt speed, there is no turning back. No slowing down, no way out.No way are you going to ride a day to day street board past 35 without getting worked !
Dont know about you all but that was good stuff !
Once I start going off we will see our friend back on his site, NO WORRIES !
