Hey Cliff! Good to catch up with you on the phone. I was hoping to come over to Slidefest in Nov but the cost of flying direct is too much.I`ve had the idea of hooking up with you in Berkeley, then travelling together to the fest. What do you think,any other ideas? Send my best to the Berkeley crew much respect Mark.

Sergio,

Great news about your new boy. Say hello to your wife and the boys. When I visit Floripa, I'll have to rent my own place. The new kid is going to be keeping you from sleeping. :)

hey Cliff
On 8/30/2006 Daniel Farmery wrote in from United States  (71.39.nnn.nnn)

Hey Cliff...

I just got in from Calgary and man it was one heck of a race and even better party. The race course was first class formula one. This is your rally call for you to put the Paskapoo DH race on your list for next year. I'm thinking about the rock creek race in oregon and Sandia to round out the season but i still would like to visit you in the bay area. Just checking in and making sure your still keeping it wheel side down. Miss you man.

Cheers Cliff
Daniel Farmery

Mark,

Good to here from you. I skate everyday. Any time you can make a trip to my area, let me know. I will be here to ride with if you make the trip. Same for HC. You will have to contact me via my e-mail. I'm moving again and don't have phone access yet.

As far as a trip to the South Bay, if I could get a ride with HC or another skater from my area then I could do it.

F,

The post you don't understand is from a guy in Oregon. He has made some interesting posts about a "Gravitational Stop". If you wish to review prior posts, then you will have to search for them.

Tips for Stevan Hemingway
On 8/29/2006 Cliff Coleman wrote in from United States  (67.161.nnn.nnn)

Stevan,

This is related to your posts regarding "Gravitational Stops". Put some video on the net! Talk is cheap, put up or you know.

For a chance to show all of the great sliders what you can do, come to the Gravity Slide Fest on November 4th in San Diego. We don't want to hear about it anymore, we want to see it.
