I had a hell of a time today, but I'm definetly going to be hurting in the morning. Oh well.

I'm going to the parking garage tuesday around 9pm if anyone is interested.

[shaun o'brian]

Right on, I'm sore as well. I'll be in touch about Tuesday night.

[Churchill]

Tuesday sounds good to me. Maybe I'll be rolling my Kebbek!

[Churchill]

Can we tackle that garage any earlier?

[shaun o'brian]

Hey Will, Looks like rain later, does that garage stay fairly dry ? I'll PM you my phone number. Shaun

Shaun

Whats the deal with the Retros. . . . Do you get them by the set or can you get them per wheel or in pairs? I am looking at doing the Retro 70mm Oranges in front and 70mm Limes in the back on those Tracker RTX and RTS set-up for slalom.

Here is basically what I am looking at for a slalom package:
129mm Tracker RT-S & RT-X ($40)
RockinRons Missile Bearings ($??)
Retro 70mm Oranges (86a) pair & 70mm Limes (80a) pair ($??)

Let me know what you can do. . . . . .

[wmegginson]

The garage is definetly going to be too wet tonight, as long as it quits raining sometime tonight it'll be dry enough to skate tomorrow or thursday.

The Garage is 1 block south of n4th street on Hudson between Dean a Mcgee, and Robert S Kerr. Or you can just put this into Google maps

N Hudson Ave & Dean a McGee Ave
Oklahoma City, OK 73102

I have to work tomorrow until about 10:30 but I'll be in Bricktown and my car will be there and I'll probably skate a while after work.
Thursday I'm free after I get out of class at 8:30 and I'm deffinetly planning on going then. Any questions ya'll can get my number from Shaun.

If ya'll go without me, Look for the building with the great big red OG&E sign, and take your first left after Dean A. Mcgee into the parking garage.

[Churchill]

Good word, B.J. The next time I skate will be on my Kebbek with 97s boy!!!!!!!!!!

[wmegginson]

It sucks that it's raining and you can't go break it in. I got the flexdex the day that second ice storm hit this past winter and wasn't able to ride it for like a week.

Ya'll may have to go and hit up the garage without me, I just realized that the rest of my week is booked and I'm going out of town this weekend.

Next monday I'll head up there around 7 and will be there for a while. But ya'll should definetly try to make it up then.

[wmegginson]

I need a helmet and some knee pads. What would everyone recommend?

[shaun o'brian]

I've got Pro Designs Pads, they're super cush but expensive & a bit on the bulky side. The Smith's Scabs are cool cuz they're backless (you don't have to slide them on) & they're about $60. Also, 187 has a new Slider knee pad but they're expensive (around $120), with replacable pucks. My helmet is a Triple Eight, which I'd rate as average. I'd check out the Smith's....or you could get some rollerblade pads like Churchill's !!!

[shaun o'brian]

Shorty, I can get those Zigzag wheels in singles, haven't heard anything about the bearings yet.

[Churchill]

Probably the coolest move you could pull would buy some 13 year olds Rollerblade pads, or just kick his ass and take 'em!!!!!!!!

[Churchill]

Just epoxy some slide discs (or cuttingboard) to a beat up pair of pants. Ultra cheap and O.G. stylie!

[shaun o'brian]

Shorty, I can't get the missile bearings until mid May.

[Shorty McSmalls]

Shorty, I can't get the missile bearings until mid May.

Shaun,

Thats cool, I picked up a set of Lucky ceramics instead. So can you give me a price quote for the Tracker RT-X & RT-S 129 mm, a pair of 70mm Retro Oranges and a pair of 70 mm Retro Limes, and some Rockets?

[shaun o'brian]

Shorty, I'll call you with a price.

[Shorty McSmalls]

Yo Shaun,

What is the word on that Pocket Pistols Chicken Dagger deck? Do you have one at the house?

[shaun o'brian]

No, I don't have one in stock at the moment.

[Churchill]

my Kebbek is still cooler than your slalom board, Shorty! Don't forget to scoot the Spud.
