Is there a Douche Tard nearby? Not a chance! Ha! Ha! Ha! It's in the woods in between Mt St-Anne and Quebec. To give you an idea, Louis and me were in the nearest convenience store before a session waiting at the counter. Nobody in the store but us and 2 other clients waiting to be served. No staff...

Gleb, hope you like your board. I don't have much experience with Rads personnally, but I know Louis Ricard here likes them with 7° to 10° wedging and double barrel bushings (Abec11 Reflex, I think). As for the rear RTS, mount it to the rearest set of holes on your Red Baron and put 20° total dewedg...

Re: CONCRETE WAVE Observation - Didn't See Slalom Equipment
I was looking through the latest CW at Books-A-Million ( I don't subscribe ) You're supposed to be a big slalom advocate and you don't even support the only publication that covers slalom once in a while. Yet, you expect companies to run slalom specific ads in every issue??? Am I the only one to fi...

Re: PPS Chicken Dagger
Borsillo is not a spanish word, as far as I know.Marty Schaub wrote:"Borsillo Del Pistola" which is Pocket Pistol in spanish.
Pocket Pistol in spanish is "Pistola de Bolsillo".
Your translation actually sounds more like "Pistol's Pocket"... LOL
Great board none the less to get into slalom!

Redrill the board to a 19" or 20" wheelbase (I assume it's longer than that from the pics I have seen). Sell one of your 3 sets of trucks to get a Bennett 4.3 for the front and a Trackers RTS in 106mm for the back. Soft double barrels up front, way harder double barrels in the back (RTX), even bette...
