Excellent. Thanks for the web site, these are the kinds of resources that I look for when investigating an interest. On speed... At first, this thread was protested by a couple of respectable people. I listened to what they had to say and perhaps I still made a mistake in posting the thread. Speedin...

Jeff, Can you do a little self promotion here? If you have a web site or a skateboard supply company, can you give us a little more info with a lean on Seismics since is the topic? Thanks in advance, I'll take a look if you decide to reply. Perhaps I will purchase from you! adam P.S. Remember that I...

Adam Trahan

Thanks for the update Dan. I'm up for a hat, 1 set each of 105's and 130's when available. I like my old first gen Seismics a whole lot and I look forward to owning the metal versions. Is there a recomendation where I should purchase them? http://www.solidskate.com and http://www.longskate.com do no...

Adam Trahan

Gilmour, do you have a picture or a URL about your car? I am not familiar with that model, I would like to read about it.

What have you had her up to?

Adam Trahan

Just curious about the Turner Summer Ski company.

Has anyone ordered a Turner lately?

Have the decks changed?

Not much from the Turner camp, can anyone post any information?

I hope all is well.

adam

Adam Trahan

Where are they available?

Estimated time of availabilty for the 130mm models?

Thanks for the update.

adam

P.S. the images do not show up for me, they are hosted by ncdsa and there is a filter in place for me, do the pictures show up for anyone else?

Adam Trahan

It was 116 degrees this last Sunday and 130 in Havasu. Unreal.

Cool to hear about the 100 cone though.

adam

Adam Trahan

Great reply. I'll find the example of the calendar. More than one knowledgable racer/enthusiast has suggested a "contest calendar" that is free and easy to use. I've seen it somewhere in php programming. I'll find an example and post it so we can check it out. You're doing a great job Jani, I apprec...

Gentlemen, I have two sets of wheels, Avila's and Avalons that I want to trim both inside and outside edges down just a little. I don't like the sharp lip and HG didn't have trimmed versions. I realize that the process is not difficult but I live in an apartment, I don't have power tools or access t...

Adam Trahan

Welcome back Chris. Jani, is it in the programming where we can have the thread in reverse order? When you click on a topic, the last post comes up instead of the original? Chris and I talked about the layout of the site and he has some great ideas but like most, he is used to the http://www.ncdsa.c...

Wesley, can you keep the latest version posted here? One offbeat note. http://www.slalomskateboarder.com contains about 125 megs of information. We just received another 100 megs from our service provider. The statistics are still outstanding and we continue to grow. We are officially one year old A...

Welcome to skateboard slalom Brad. There are lot's of areas that have only a single enthusiast in hundreds of square miles. Here in Phoenix, the sixth largest city in the USA, I think there are fewer than 5 of us here that run cones with ANY regularity. Get some cones from a online store and a stopw...

Adam Trahan

Thank you Wesley for taking the initiative to make this idea reality.

Nice work.

Hey, I know this guy who knows Jani Soderhal. I bet that I can get him to put that picture up on Slalom!

*grin*

Adam Trahan

John, Just a thought. Use a heavy guage wire or rod and make a "bumper" all the way around the side of the board. Use wood risers, drill two holes so the wire will fit in the front facing front, two in the back facing back and plug the wire or rod into the front hole then proceed to bend the wire or...

Adam Trahan

90a's coming my way. HG is a really nice guy. He told me about his experiences with Michael Dong's aluminum footblock, he really likes it. Gees, I call the guy up for some wheels and he talks slalom, he was out back varnishing Dylan's new plank when he got pulled away to come to the phone to take my...

Adam Trahan

Hey Chris, Aero doesn't really matter? Huh? Do trucks really matter? I don't challenge you, none what so ever, it just sounds odd coming from a GERT enthusiast. I think aero (helmet, clothes, board, stance, attitude) drag reduction and it's timing difference comes into play only in two VERY closely ...

Adam Trahan

Really neat photo, man I thought I was the only one who thought of this aero-dam so-to-speak.

Thanks for posting, I got a really big kick out of it.

Hello all. Jani sent an e-mail to me today chit chatting about upcoming plans for http://www.slalomskateboarder.com We will be working to upgrade the way the site displays the messages and make the front page more of a "portal" instead of the direction of a interzine. Don't worry, we are not going t...

I have inquired about the company straight to Peggy with no reply. Inquired about the cone sale and boards as well. Nothing returned. Who knows, could be growing pains or "spam" e-mail filter. I've nothing but respect for the Turner Summer Ski and it's organization but it seems that their drive is n...

Glenn,

Thanks for the response.

I have a couple of these hangers and I really like them in conjuction with my proto-milled German Seismics up front. Was wondering, have any of you "upgraded" by polishing and or anodizing or painting this hanger? With the facet architecture, it seems to lend itself to customization and I am curious...

Adam Trahan

Agreed.

Nice work, enjoyed the vid.

Adam Trahan

so true!!!

It's all good.

Adam Trahan

Hey there.

Jani answers this one well.

Have fun with the footblock but be careful to make sure your laces are tucked. Remember that you are riding with a footblock when the time comes to bail, they can inhibit a forward exit.

But back to your original question, Jani nailed it.

Adam Trahan

It was not necessary to mention my name although it does not bother me at all in reference to the TTC hanger axle alighnment in question... I took this straight to Howard and he quickly agreed and sent a replacement that is straight dead on. In case you were wondering Howard, I told not one person o...

Adam Trahan

You guys are cool. I enjoy a little fishing now and then and this web site is honed from my knowledge of building a couple of community sites on fly fishing. I heard it somewhere, slalom is to fishing as fly fishing is or something like that. TK, I didn't forget about your "care" package for the str...

Send the address and contact info to me in a private message so I can get this to the marketing director at Winterstick. Winterstick is onbo...

Jack,

Can you point me to the race records for FCR Elsinore?

Thanks.

Adam Trahan

So it shall be written, so it shall be done.

I feel like Moses.

You have your England forum and Michael Johnson is the moderator.

Hey Steve.

You send in the photo (you running cone) to me and I program it.

Cool, I appreciate you noticing this. The cool thing is that it is all word of mouth. You guys found out by telling each other about it. There is no advertising campaign, no business proposals, no rules, international and the site is quite informative and friendly. This is quite a accomplishment reg...

G, My appologies for being so wordy. Can you provide this service to me? Do I need to send the bushings to you or can I just buy them and have them sent to you and then you send them to me.

I have limited racing experience having only raced WLAC TS and Elsinore FCR. Both of these courses were sort of the same to me with the exception of Elsinore being faster. I really enjoyed myself at Elsinore. The course was a challenge, it was a push start (I have yet to ramp start) and I am used to...

You are onto a great sport and what a competition to start your career as a skateboard slalom racer.

Send your picture and what you want it to say...

Yes, I have to "set your picture."

I would ask that you become a member of this community first, and after a while, I will "set your picture." It takes time to do this and all work here is voluntary.

Geezer-X, Regarding bushings.

Awesome idea, I mean it.

Quite a choice you made to describe it but well, wether you are making a joke or not, I think it's a good idea.

Hope someone could make it happen, I'm having trouble getting stickers for the site made.
