Donald,

The new ISSA started it's life by giving an automatic membership to all ISSA representatives from the 90's. It was the best I could figure out to honor the effort they did back then getting this association started. Many of them may, as you know, not be active right now, but as long as the membership is for life (could be changed by the board) they'll stay members until they personally withdraw (has only happened once).

Here's a who's who (of those that you reacted upon):

Former ISSA representatives:
Mike Ernst,a rollerblader these days for along time already - true, but many others have come back from their other lives to rejoin slalom, why not Mike?
Dieter Fleischer - longboarder, lives in France nowadays
Kaupo Kukli,norway?huh? - No from Estonia, lives in Finland. Doesn't skate I think.
Daniel Ridoli,aha? who is this? - Former Ranking #1, once ahead of Luca in the ranking!
Valdis Sermols,and who is this guy? - Latvian ISSA representative. Still helps out at races.
Martin Sweeney,doesn't race or post anymore - True, doesn't skate, but is world famous.

Monthly sponsors/paying members
Eric Groff,arab,gone for sure,sad but true - True, but still a member
Mary-Beth Lavoie,a girl,lady,from when? - Helped out a many races, probably at yours too! and paid her membership!
Jesper Thunstedt,who is jesper thunstedt? - Don't know, but he paid, so he's in.

The maintenance of this list is shared between me and Wesley. Can you tell me what needs updating?

/Jani

[Wesley Tucker]

Mary-Beth is Claude Regnier's "significant other." She's probably been to more races in the past eights years than most of the racers in the ISSA.

The ISSA offers LIFETIME membership for a one-time fee. I am not going to take it upon myself to decide who's dead or alive.

Fortunately, the ISSA does not have any rules regarding the necessity of a quorum of paid members in order to accomplish anything. So it's not like those absent somehow affect the ongoing decisions and operations of the organization.

If this is something the new Board wants to address and discuss with the members then at that time it can be adjusted.

[Robert Gaisek]

Jesper Thunstedt,who is jesper thunstedt?

Jesper is "HeffeBomb" Thunstedt, Sweden. A great guy.

[Rob Ashby]

Jani,

I have just sent my joining fee, I thought I had done this a couple of years ago, my mistake!

By the way Martin Sweeney still comes along to races in the UK. He is a legend!

I'm on this thing, dude, like white on rice.

Oops, my fingers slipped.

[Wesley Tucker]

Mr. Steve Lavin of Chicago, Illinois is the FIRST to pay his annual dues for 2010. Spain's Ricardo Damborenea was a close second by just a few hours.

I'm not going to announce each and every payment received but did want to give Steve and Ricardo their props for getting on the stick and doing the deed.

Please remember: there are two different payment amounts and it costs MORE on race day. Paying early not only grows the ISSA but also makes things so much simpler when what's important is getting on the hill and down the course.

Thanks again Steve and Ricardo!

For those who have not read the release from the ISSA, the dues schedule is as follow:

**************************

So in 2010, we will begin charging an annual fee for ISSA membership. Racers in Main and Major ISSA-sanctioned events in 2010 will be required to join the ISSA and pay this fee. The fee will be $25 USD (€20) if you pre-pay before going to your first race. If you choose to pay at your first race, the fee will be slightly higher: $30 USD (€25). The PayPal address for membership dues is

issa@slalomskateboarder.com


**************************

The complete release detailing the ISSA's new initiatives, racer and organizer benefits and where the dues is going is at:

Well, things are picking up. The ISSA's new membership policy is bringing in LOTS of new people. Also, some current members have already stepped up and paid their dues for 2010. I haven't quite decided yet on a schedule but what I will do is post here the names of new members as they "accumulate."

Earl Cephas USA
Tim Chason USA
Gary Fluitt USA
Lynn Kramer USA
Pat Chewning USA

Just paid my dues for 2010 but it took a lot of work to find out who to pay and how much.
Needs to be on the front page and as the top sticky in the forums
I paid issa@slalomskateboarder.com $25 via paypal.
cheers
see some of you in Texas

Good point, Paul. We've discussed how to make it easier and are working on doing so as soon as we can.

[Ron Barbagallo]

where's my ISSA stickers? I need to repulse more women

[Pierre Gravel]

Just paid too, i hope we all get a timing chip, gold start ramps and umbrella girls on the lineup like in F1.

[Rick Floyd]

Umbrella girls! The ladies will probably want "Umbrella guys", but good luck finding such a beast.

[Wesley Tucker]

A few more slalom skateboarders this week stepped up to support the cause:

Ron Barbagallo USA
Jason Bortolussi USA
Pierre Gravel CAN
Neil Orta USA
Paul Price UK
Tom Mangelsdorf USA

Please make note that Neil "Dr. No" Orta went ahead and paid his dues . . . for the next TEN YEARS. (You can do the math.)

Thanks, Neil.

[Wesley Tucker]

You might want to double-check on Stryker. He attended the Sizzler and (presumably) is already an ISSA member as a result of entering that race.

Because of no fault of his own, I failed to mention St. Louis's Marshall Presnell joined the ISSA in July.

He's been a member I just did not get an update posted until today.
