I have no reason to assume it's a free service. For all I know CW is putting out cash to get the mag displayed. As such I though it was important to pass along the display is screwed up. I appreciate the no-pay-to-browse opportunity to see the magazine.

Well, steel and clay composite are not so unfamiliar to me as you may be thinking. My older sibs skated too so I've had my turn on that stuff downhill. As much as I truly appreciate what the carefree, really old schoolers did - BARE FOOT and minus any safety gear no less - I'm still a big fan of soft urethane

At the vintage race at the Farm in '05, Scooter went down Bethany Road on a vintage plastic banana board wearing a bright yellow DEVO suit.

His urethane wheels MELTED under the stress. I'm not kidding. They were probably 30 years old.

I am guessing Kryptonics...


speaking of old timers stories........

one catalina downhill racer told me he suspected his bearings were sabotaged by competitors!

Hutson told me he got knocked out (as in concussion) in a race.
and quit racing after that incident...

Only one thing: the SPREADS ARE ALL BACKWARDS.

It's like pages 84-83, 86-85, 88-87, and so on.

Was a little confusing at first but eventually I figured out what was going on.

Thank you for your notice. Problem has been resolved.

Well, I'm a helluva guy.

Ask anyone.

Except those who know me.
