I'll be there on Sunday. I'll be going to La Costa to race GS and hopefully rap with some Signal Hill legends. Maybe even get some waves. Also going up north to hit GMR and Baldy. Anyone sticking around after the weekend?

Walker Friday night? Just a thought.

Slappy Maxwell · Post by **Slappy Maxwell** » Wed Jun 16, 2004 12:40 am

I'll be there if it doesn't rain.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Wed Jun 16, 2004 2:13 am

Friday nights alright with me.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Thu Jun 17, 2004 4:40 pm

Walker, Friday night, weather looks nice for slalom alright.

What time?

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Thu Jun 17, 2004 10:44 pm

I was thinking 8:30 or 9:00. It looks like it's going to be very hot.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 12:57 am

Is it raining at Walker yet?

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 1:46 am

My wife said it was raining in Springfield when she went thru at 5:30 and it looks to me like more's on it's way.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 2:28 am

8:15 no rain at Walker. It may pass over.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 2:43 am

I suck as a meterologist. It started raining right after I posted.

Washed out.

Who is up for a saturday session?

Boswell, I need to get those wheels to you.

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 3:39 am

I got to Walker at nine and it had just fiinished raining. Can we skate at walker or is there too many cars in the parking lot on Saturday? Oakwood looks a little scary to me.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 3:43 am

Jeff, saturday is ok to skate.

Maybe around 11am ?

Jeff Bozi · Post by **Jeff Bozi** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 5:49 am

JEFF & KMG, I got the replacement wheels from Dan.

I thought there was a DC Outlaw race for tomm, sat the 19?

Yes, no, Maybe so?

If yes, Ill see you guys there, if not Ill ship wheel owed each of you.

Jeff

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 11:15 am

Eleven AM will be too early for me today. I might be able to skate 2-4pm though.

Bozi, the race is next Sat, June 26.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 1:39 pm

I can skate whenever. 2 to 4 is good too. Jeff? Slappy?

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 2:58 pm

2 to 4 will work. 11 is way way too early for Slappy to even think about!

Slappy Maxwell · Post by **Slappy Maxwell** » Sat Jun 19, 2004 9:42 pm

Yeah, I just got up. I'm on the nightlife schedule this weekend. Lot's of good DJ's and bands in town, sorry.

Anthony Smallwood · Post by **Anthony Smallwood** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 1:02 am

Dr. No, WesE and myself are celebrating our independence by having a downhill session at Van Dorn (Oakwood) this Saturday, probably late afternoon. Maybe even an impromptu competition.

Come join us!
Tell your friends!

Anthony Flis · Post by **Anthony Flis** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 4:30 am

Ill talk to my people and see. Can we celebrate our independance by lighting the road on fire and bombing through it? I really want to do that like sergio did in flow except he slid through first to ignite it and hes a beast.....I hope i dont have to go anywhere like a bbq or anything but ill call danny and jimmy and see if they are up for it. I still havent had my board come from Jeff yet but ill set up my tahoe for downhill.

Danny Crawford · Post by **Danny Crawford** » Fri Jul 02, 2004 6:41 pm

I have family from Kansas City coming. I'll see what I can do.

Anthony Flis · Post by **Anthony Flis** » Sat Jul 03, 2004 2:11 am

edit: crap none of us are going sorry guys. ill have to ride oakwood another day with ya.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jul 03, 2004 3:58 am

Oakwood 3pm - 5pm.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sat Jul 03, 2004 6:52 pm

Yeah, so it's 3-5 at Oakwood. We are crazy mofos.

I'll probably chill out / give rides back up the hill until 4 and then ride through the early evening. I hate this weather. I totally dig 36°f compared to it.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sun Jul 04, 2004 4:06 am

See you next time then, AnthonyF.

We had transportation back up the hill today. It's "the only way to fly”.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Sun Jul 04, 2004 11:02 pm

There were plans of myself and Anthony Smallwood to skate a parade and watch the fireworks display on the Mall. I’m feeling ill, so won’t be able to make it, but if anyone wants to join Anthony and crew, give him a call.

Anthony, if you see this after the fact, I apologize, but your phone message box was full.

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 12:11 am

Walker session on friday night? Nine-ish?

I'll be there if doesn't rain like the 12 other times we've tried to ride there on a Friday night.

Anthony Flis · Post by **Anthony Flis** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 2:58 am

hey any of you guys wanna skip work and skate vans with me tomorrow? Ill be at the 10 or 12 or both sessions. I gotta test out my alva board in the big bowl. I have the hankerin for some park skating after so much longboarding and then watching animal chin one too many times.

Jack Nagle · Post by **Jack Nagle** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 3:28 am

You have an alva board? anywhere i could see a picture?

Anthony Flis · Post by **Anthony Flis** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:00 am

if you find a place online that sells the 70s reissue alva boards still then you can see a pic. Sorry. I got the leopard print one. If you watch dogtown and z boys you can see a pic of the original a few times.

Jack Nagle · Post by **Jack Nagle** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 5:03 am

Yeah i saw that, it was a good documentary.

Anthony Smallwood · Post by **Anthony Smallwood** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 2:49 am

Allright cone-people, who's up for a race on Adams Morgan day? We were planning a small event this year, much like last years race. I'm just not into the effort that it takes to make it world class. That changed today when I received a call from someone affiliated with a major internet provider, who wants to sponsor the race in a big way. I'm not even working with them unless we get a sh!tload of prize money.

Of course we're having downhill and probably a slide contest (farthest, most stylish) and maybe even a "skate jump" if I can get Daryl Freeman to come. He hits punk ramps at 30mph+ with skyhooks and travels a looooooong way. Crowd pleaser I'm sure.
Obviously, we'd want slalom in there also. Any local organizers interested, let me know. We meet with the sponsor on the 19th.

Joe Iacovelli · Post by **Joe Iacovelli** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 2:58 am

Anthony,

Forgive my ignorance. When is A Mo day again?

Anthony Flis · Post by **Anthony Flis** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 3:40 am

I think adams morgan day is the first weekend of september if i remember what anthony was telling me of past events. Anthony, Me and danny and probably jimmy even would be interested in racing in the downhill race. Can we do it? We got the cujones but what we dont got is leathers and im the only with a fullface but i think danny can get something since hes getting paid now. Help?

Anthony Smallwood · Post by **Anthony Smallwood** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 4:11 am

Adams Morgan festival is the weekend of Sept. 10-12.

Friday Sept.10th is a big party at a historical mansion for all the riders and festival sponsors
Saturday Sept. 11th is race day
Sunday Sept. 12th is the main festival day. 18th Street shut down for 10 blocks. Food, music and 75,000 people.
We could probably do something skate-related on Sunday as well.

Leathers aren't mandatory but full-face helmets are a must. The riders who ate it last year were glad they were wearing leathers though. I know, I was one of them.

Wesley Tucker · Post by **Wesley Tucker** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 2:03 pm

Hey, Y'all,

Have fun, but there are slalom doins' in Georgia that weekend.

Anthony Smallwood · Post by **Anthony Smallwood** » Wed Jul 14, 2004 4:29 pm

Damn Wesley, you're going to a race that's basically in your backyard as oppossed to driving 500 miles each way? You're getting soft......

Just kidding bro

I don't even know if we'll have slalom as all the local slalomers might be going to Georgia also. I'll have to check the contest calender to see who's signed up. I wouldn't want to draw a conflict of interest or step on any toes.

I did talk to some of the top speedboarders last nite and they're on it.

Of course, if the sponsor doesn't put out, it's a moot point anyway.

150 miles in Jaw Ja is like 10,000 miles anywhere else: it just goes on and on and on . . .

Jeff Boswell · Post by **Jeff Boswell** » Thu Jul 15, 2004 1:46 am

The weather looks great for Walker Friday night, especially for July. Low humidity with a high temp of 82 and a low temp of 65. let's run some cones!!

Jack Nagle · Post by **Jack Nagle** » Thu Jul 15, 2004 6:45 am

Where is walker?

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Thu Jul 15, 2004 2:02 pm

Walker Lane is off of Beulah Rd in Alexandria. There is an INOVA Emergency Hospital right there. We set up at the Calibre building. You can take the metro to the Springfield Franconia station (Blue Line) and walk about 1/2 mile or call one of us to pick you up.

Friday nights session will be good.

Mike Ohm · Post by **Mike Ohm** » Fri Jul 16, 2004 2:22 pm

Tonight will feature a tight course on the main hill. Bring your A game.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jul 16, 2004 7:23 pm

Awesome. See you guys there.

I'm also looking for an Oakwood session.

Slalom is totally do-able there. I set/rode a course there a couple of weeks ago. With plenty of chalk, the forseeable problems can be worked around.

Saturday looks good. Sunday looks wet.

Wes Eastridge · Post by **Wes Eastridge** » Fri Jul 16, 2004 9:13 pm

I just remembered that I am helping with the All-girl longboard session tomorrow evening at 5pm. A Saturday Oakwood session would have to be between morning and 3pm.

Anyone up for it?

If anyone can help out with the All-girl longboards session at 5:30pm tomorrow, that would be apreciated.
