Noah, I'm hooked after my first Pocket Pistol experience last weekend. What wheel base was I riding? Your rig is a super smooth pumping machine that hugs the cones on every turn with excellent traction. Thanks for the test spin. With a new PP, I can continue to drink beer, forget about practicing an...

Alan, Is it possible to get the Poly-Tipped Kevlar Glove with built in pads or slide-gear? Looking for something similar to my old worn out Rector Palm Padded gloves. Thanks for your help.

I also want to thank JG for taking time to give pointers to everyone and also for running the timer so I could take a few Hybrid runs. My fastest time was my only run on the Pocket Pistol.

I purchased a GC Comet last year and raced it with Indys for a while then put it away. Recently I got it back out and set it up with an RTX - Indy offset (with a good amount of wedging) and cut-down Avalons and it rocks on Hybrid type courses. Love the wide tail. The traction is sick and my times ha...

JG, thanks for the info. Much to my amazement, I posted some of my fastest times last night riding your old S-Camber set up with Mids. I was running 92 Stingers in front and 86 Cambrias in back. I was nearly .2 faster than all previous attempts on many different boards and set-ups. The only problem ...

JG will be here tonight so I got out the old Fibreflex 24" with Bennett Pros. I look forward to seeing what times <i>that 70's guy</i> will post. I imagine a 7.999 is within his grasp.

JG, I would be very interested in hearing your opinion regarding TS parallel slalom set-ups, techniques, wheels (on a good surface) etc. I have been practicing 25 cones set at 5.5 center/center riding a Roe BR with a Seismic in front and a TTC. I have tried numerous wheels and pumping techniques. So...

The Turner drinking bottle is just a makeshift start button. Light weight and durable. As for the outlet, it's made of hard plastic and is very lightweight. The wire is surprising light as well. It's flexible and each wire is individually braided. (very strong) Some day we hope the system will run t...

The timer alone is $200. and can be assemble independently. The plugs on the back of the unit are RJ6 (standard headset plugs for US telephones)....
