Slappy,
Thanks for the 411.
We're leaning towards Lansdowne, but no firm plans yet. I'd love to see Anthony bomb that back hill.

Would slides be illegal? If not, I can see Dillon on his Ed Economy racking a strike every time...Anthony Smallwood wrote: in the condition that "Skateboard Bowling" will be included in this years Gathering.

Ben, You need to hook up with Gareth Roe, he's a member of this forum, great supporter of slalom skating, and manufacturer of Roe Slalom decks. The Roe boards are among the finest being produced worldwide today, and they're in Sea-town... Here's the 411 on Gareth: http://www.slalomskateboarder.com/p...

Jeff "Bozi" and I had an impromptu double family session at the Germantown ditch today... Fathers running cones in the parking lot, kids doing tricks in the ditch...

At first for some women the stiffer feel may be painful- but after a while it is comfortable- though I have seen some women grab their calves in pain from the intial shock of the stiffness. After a few times the discomfort does go away, as CMC points out, and it gets much more enjoyable. Most women...

Re: RFK
A velodrome BTW, is an indoor, circular, banked bicycle racing track, or something like that. Probably won't really be of much use or interest, but worth a look. Are you kidding? I shouldn't have to explain this to you (being that you are a surfer at heart)... I'd be like an endless wave. Although ...

Thanks for the breakdown, Vlad. I was basing my assessment on alcohol content alone, as I've only tried the #4 and #9. I had a 9 the other night, and it kicked in nicely... As for the velodrome, it may exist, but without an arena (like we care), cuz I read about a 2012 olympic bid for DC/Baltimore w...

Petition To Bring Slalom Skating Back to VA Vans
Ok guys, power in numbers. If we can all "sign" this petition, it shouldn't be too hard for the Vans management to translate it to membership$, session$, heck I could even see them stocking some slalom stuff in the skate shop. I would attend Vans Potomac more frequently if they allowed skaters to se...

Seth,
Directions can be found on this thread...
viewtopic.php?t=362&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=400
It isn't a metro stop, it is a Park & Ride (assuming they use the regular spot).
Keep an eye on the DC forum and you'll be dialed in.

Camber and Flex are in the personal preference category... Sorta like concave and nose/tail kick... I'm too much of a noob, that I don't yet know what I prefer.
