Just gettin' the word out there, I made a small forum and set up an e-mail in hopes of receiving word from local skaters. I know a few but I see so many more that I have never met and sometimes see only once. There are others like you! We're hoping to get a friendly little community going where people can try eachother's setups and swap/sell old parts, share good hills and get shortboarders into longboarding. Not to mention we'll set up races and small events if we have enough support, and then there'll be parties and the like.
