And another thing . . . . . . what keeps happening to LONGBOARD SLALOM? In the few events where it's been run it always draws a good crowd. It's fun and makes big hills fun for big boards. And then it just fades away again. I keep expecting it to really crank up on Silverfish but there's never any e...

Rick, How many racers showed up in Texas with their $30.00 and were unable to pay their dues because no one was collecting? What happens to them? And later on in the year as the rankings become public someone will ask, "where am I? I won "X" race!" The answer will be, "you need to pay your ISSA dues...

The mini-ramps were hard-tested yesterday by 21 riders in our Outlawslalom #5 and worked great!
Note: measures in Cm
Were pull bars added?
And how are the components fastened together?

Bruce, My experience is the board is done. Once the fiberglas (or carbon) in any way fails the foam underneath loses its integrity.
