Nooooooooooooooooooooo!
I always loved seeing pictures of your beautiful boards. As I have indicated previously, I'd love to own some of them, too.
Best of luck to you, Alex, and you've always got a place to stay if you're in San Francisco.

.400" (commonly referred to as 10mm). Probably the most precision-sized spacers are the ABEC11, Oust, and Ninja spacers. The ABEC11's are discontinued (and I'm kicking myself for not getting 1000 of them when they were available), the Ninjas only come with their bearings, and the Oust are, um, hard ...

The problem with trying to check the duros on those old wheels is that the urethane formulas were pretty unstable. PowerFlex wheels were advertised as 82a, and the RRs were definitely in that ballpark. You can't ever be 100% sure, because even now, carefully mixed urethane batches can vary by +/- 3 ...

The 30" is still under development. I've seen the prototype, and it looks good. It is a scaled-down version of the 36" board (in width as well as length), so it is narrower than the 36", as well as shorter. I wish I had one in SB, as I was over-gunned on my 36". And if they made one in a 33" length,...

One wouldn't have an F1 race in a parking lot (car park), correct? A kart race, perhaps, but not an F1 race. So it is by limiting the venue choice to the Trocadero.

A good place to start would be to visit HC's Sk8SanJose website: http://www.geocities.com/sk8sanjose/
Lots of links and contact info for Bay Area / NorCal riders.
If it's Seismics you're after, I would probably run 105's on your RR deck - a 45* on the front, 30* on the rear.
