Hey Martin,

I lost your email. Drop me a line. I am going to book a flight to Hood. Paul tells me that you both are flying as well. I was hoping I could catch or be near the same flight times as you? Maybe I can catch a ride with you guys into Hood? I am going to hook up and stay with Cat for the weekend so I can shuttle with her once I am in town.

We need to train hard if it evers stops snowing!

See ya soon

Hi Trish,
I will e-mail you with my address. Paul is making it a holiday and staying for about a week, but I am flying in on the Thursday (Paul arrives Wednesday) and out on the Monday. I will mail you my flight details.
And yes, when the snow goes, lets get riding!

Martin.

ps. I think Patrick is planning some kind of BIG event involving lots of Action Sports including racing...

I'm trying to figure out a way to get there. My sister in law lives out side of Portland so I have hook ups but could you e mail me you flight plans and prices.
Trish I've got some local friends that want to hit the Heber park so we need to hook up.
so I need to drag Kevin along and get Martin to join. and make a day of it.
I'll call you when I get a chance.
later Bob

Bob! that would be so cool if you could come. My family is not going with me so I opted to buy a plane ticket. I fly out on Thursday and come back Monday. I can't remember the flight times right off hand. It cost about 166.00 round trip from SLC. I just googled cheap flight and found it.

Hey UPC folks.

Looks like I'm gonna bite the bullet and drive up for the Worlds...

If anyone knows of any last minute accomodation options let me know.

I'll throw a sleeping bag on a floor if I need to.

My first race - should be interesting. Looking forward to getting my yonker kicked.

Martin, if you're not racing, you can coach me into the losers bracket...

I've already been hooked up. Unbelievable, that's what us slalom geeks are, unbelievable.

See you guys (and gal) there!

Great news Curt, can't believe we never got together when we live 7 miles apart, but will skate together at Hood!

Saw the Doc today and the news was good. Keep it heavily strapped, wear the walking boot when not skating and grit my teeth! See ya there...

I tore my ankle up once and was out for six weeks. Martin makes all of the Masters division stoked to race him. Those are some BIG stones boys & girls.

Martin, I'll have a cold beer for you.

Vive la Islands via Utah.

Cheers matey, looking forward to ONE beer (anti-inflamms/painkillers permitting)!
But really looking forward to finally meeting one of my childhood idols from the issue of "Skateboarder" showing the G&S guys racing at the Catalina Classic in 1977...dude, you were on my wall right alongside Farrah! I will buy YOU a beer!
