Nice to see your name up in lights, man. Sounds like it was after a big friday beef, to boot. Allez, allez, eh?

Hi, My arrival is still May 5th, but my belongings will be more likely about the first week in June. Unless I stuff the cones into my bags (still possible if I can catch my family looking the other way). I'm bringing the boards with me. I might try to make it up to Pender Harbour to see the downhill...

Dan, Yeah, I'm coming back for good. I'll be back May 5th, and the cones'll probably follow with the rest of the furniture and stuff. I might bring 'em with me if I have enough space in our luggage (kind of doubtful). Anyway, they'll be there by the middle of May regardless (they'd better be, anyway...

Hi, Wow, I don't look in for awhile and look what happens. Claude: yeah, I'll be back over there in mid April. I hope you make it out for a camp. I could use some coaching. By then I should have regained my composure at speed on big hills. Let me know if you're coming (also if you're going to make i...

That may have been it. I remember two board spinning, but not who or Why? ha, ha. Those things underwhelmed me because I was into speed and a lot more style than trickery. I do remember the name Kevin Harris, but haven't recognized any of the pictures I've seen of him. My Roe and I are getting along...

I've spaced it right now, but I saw Rick Ducommun in something (movie or TV) the other day. Actually, that's what made me bring up his name. In the seventies, there was a competition at the Pacific Colosseum. I remember Howell there spinning 360s, WWW there with some bigass boards and eight wheelers...

Hey, have your stingers changed colour? I bought a set of 88a's when they came out, and got some softer ones mounted on a Roe complete last July. The colours are noticeably different now, and I wonder if the older ones changed, or if the newer ones began a different colour, or different urethane... ...

Turner cones have landed in Japan! Got my Turner cones last week--ordered them sent to buddy's place in Portola Valley, CA, USA over the holiday, and he, being a nice guy, brought 'em over in his luggage. Had his bags checked at the airport, though. They apparently look like missiles on the new scan...

Happy New Year to you, too. I suppose it wasn't the unfairness I was suspecting, but that in-crowd, some racers can go here /sit here, others stay over there, star-bellied sneetches only feeling that I got from them that bugged me. Guys like Rick Ducommun were always more open and anti clique/club a...

I was watching a baseball documentary the other night. The particular segment was centred on Willie Mays. So he goes into a neighbourhood in New York to play stickball with the kids there. They are playing on a wide avenue in New York, IN TRAFFIC. Remember? CAR! GAME ON! No reason slalom should be a...

I had the luxury of a broken arm while I waited for my Bottle rocket to arrive. I did tell Gareth that it was no rush. I got the board in July (a bottle rocket mounted complete with seismics and stingers) and have been waiting 'til my arm felt like it could take an impact. It still doesn't feel 100%...

Hey Claude, Thanks for remembering...I'm still over here and healing. Anyway, just found this site and will look in as much as I can.... Anybody found anywhere to set up cones on the coast (The one with the mountains)? I hope so. Scott Sorry screwed up registering (just habit, I guess) and thought I...
