Hi Judy,
Well done again on a storming performance at Morro...You pushed Lynn to her best skating, my money is on you next time!
On the age front, my DOB is 5th May 1960 (does that make me the oldest skater to podium at the Worlds?), making me 45.
Take care,

Hi there,
It depends on the surface, but I have found with Grippins that you can go much harder and STILL have great grip.
When the surface is good 92/84, really good 92/88, average 88 or 84/81.
At present I will have to win the Lottery to meet up with you in Europe!

Do we need mega artwork (he's obviously very talented from looking at his site!), or do we get Chris to stick a slalom board on his graphic instead of the package and use one of Billy's slogan?
