Hey Chris, I just got my copies of "Spinnin Wheels" and "Downhill Motion" and watched them last night. That was WAY cool seeing 70's footage of you and everyone else too. I love that stuff. Adios-Paul

Nice Miko!
Many older generation skaters are echoing "Skateboarding saved my life" around the industry. It didnt save my life but it has added a new spin to it with skogging!
Keep on bringing the skate stoke to the breakfast table.

All right now . . . I lost 35 lbs when I was layed off and started skateboarding everyday. Slalom turned out to be the amazing core workout I needed; it strengthened my back, stomach, glutes, quads . . . everything. I'm fitter than I've been in 20 years and it's skateboarding that's responsible.
I've had a hard time getting to the races to play with you all, and I really miss it. Keep up the good work guys! -Miko

OPEN division

I tried to post for a few days but apparently I was victim of an IP address ban that Adam fixed with a quick problem report.
Had a great time in Encinitas. I did eat some asphalt early Saturday and along with racing the day before and being involved with setup 7am, it made for a long day. Ouch!
Overall, hanging with Cliff Coleman, Hester, Lane Oaks, Tony Hawk, Buddy Carr, The Bennets, Jamie Hart, Bruce, and the list goes on ... turned out to be a real skate stoker for me.
We'll see what's in the stars for me for the Open divisons in the future. I guess when you youngsters see us old guys cranking the course, you have every reason to pursue skate longevity because we just work hard.
Speaking of working hard, Riche, the brown bomber, is the KING. the Sk8 King! hat's off to the man who has the precise technique on the hill! He's MY HERO! Hey Richie, got a Chris Yandall board coming your way for your collection. It's my last one :D until my new line rolls out from PoolKingskateboards.com .
I'm tired of being a web weenie and am looking for someone to sponsor my skogging research. Some college freak looking for a thesis susbject might want to get a government grant to investigate thoroughly the impact of the skateboard when used as a viable self-generated transporation vehicle. VSTV. I know one thing, that without my skogging endeavors, I'd be a fat slob computer geek today!
Watch for my article in the CW coming soon.
And I'll be posting fragments here too.
Cheers to all...

Cliff and the 2 days of 50 miles

Hey Cliff,
For me to fit any skating in my life is a tough deal. The kids, the house, the folks, the businesses and friends make conflicts in every schedule pattern.
If I aint making a healthy income per month, I'm dying ! This madness has got to stop!
It would be nice to reduce to my terenage years of surfing and skating fulltime~!
Now THAT sounds like an attractive retirement. Making your life dictate your income is the secret. Making money to dictate your life is curse.
When I skog, it's more than alternating legs. It can be as extreme as almost bump skiiing out of control on the flats with one ski or subtly transitioning from one leg to the other seamlesly like a seismic ballerina! Roll your own exercise with skogging! Try skogging backwards like a rollerskater. This is a trip! Switch lead foots! Mongo for a moment on either leg :P .This stuff is soo trippy! another thing to try are 360 spins and figure 8 cruising.
So kick Jamie for me and all the best of best to YA!

Chris,
I skated 50 miles in two days and also walked another 11 those same days. I'm ready, but Jamie Hart says he better get back on the deck. He rides a bike everyday, but hasn't been out skating much. He and I will arrive sometime Thursday.
See you soon,
Cliff

ye old crew y0~!
dude, i skogged 12 miles this evening on my sk8kings deck with rad padded trackers.
great exercise~!
yea mr. coleman. looking forward to seeing the old crew. ryan and skolberg rumored to show up~! It would be good to beat some of the crew that kicked my ass while I bathed in the mid70's limelight. But we know at this age, it's all about getting out there and shining some light on all of the past .. YES?
I should be in pretty damn good shape at 50++ for this and CLIFF! y0! YEA!
RENEW Something!
some dude turned 115 today. that means we got another 60 years or so of skateboarding.
where's warren bolster. i'd love to show him some great long range cruising moves on the flat! even the contemporary skaters see "skogging" and get blown away! alternating legs and 1 f00t skating is the future for us old f#@!s looking for a cheap thrill!
CLIFF, RENE, RICHIE! YOU GUYS GOT YOU FINGER ON THE PULSE!
looking forward to seeing you demigods!!!

I can't wait to race with my old friends, especially Chris Yandall. Chris, I think the last time was around 1976 that we raced. Good luck to you! Rene will be racing. So will Jamie Hart, possibly Don Bostic too? Who else is coming that's over 50? This post should probably be on the Slalom page or the Masters page, but I wanted you to get my message Chris. I'm really looking forward to hanging out with this old crew.
