Tway, I'm suprised at you. Can you for one second forget about booze. i mean, this is the Gathering for gods sake. Its not a keg party. For me Slalom provides a natural high. I don't need to add chemicals into my body to "dig the scene" . Noah, Joe I, Gareth, Kenny and myself are Elite slalom racers...

henry j's clinic rocked. We set a low difficulty level gs course for the newbies and allowed an unlimited push so you could enter at whatever speed you were comfortable with. Henry has a great set up there and a great supportive family as well. His mom and sis were major players in the event. The sp...

I would like to host the race but want to get some feed back on intrest first. The Place rocks and can be rented for a few hours easy. Weather is not a f...

This is by far the best riding/racing set up I have ever stepped on. Gilmour set one of his fast TS courses today at the arb...

Glen , Da Farm Hill is by permit from the town (they close the street for us). Base camp is the Church parking lot at the top of the hill which the church lets us use on Sat. They need the lot for church services on Sunday. A two day race on that particular hill is not an option. If someone wants to...

Glenn, how would this effect turning in a race situation and why would it seem best to have the axle centerline on the pivot point itself? Would it effect traction,steering or both? I guess my question is what specific problem are you having in terms of performance that needs to be remedied by this ...

Adam, I am by no means an expert but I feel I have learned from and seen the best so heres my take. Charlie Ransom and JG hold their waist over the center of the cones and let their legs and board swing out from under them. This to me keeps you pointed down the hill and allows for a straighter line....

Brian, the vehicle is a 500 series mofo Mercedes.

Vlad, I can't be specific but what I can say is the 2003 boards will have even better flex and snap, more consistant fit and finish, more functional race shapes,and a fast turn around time for orders. One of the biggest problems Roe had last year was the amount of time it took to get a board, and wh...
