Bainbridge, who's going?

**JetLuge** · 10-17-2006 08:28 PM

I'll be there... the only one to go UPHILL just as fast as I go down.... Jet up Gravity down..

I just hope I can stay on the road this year... I had the 2005 ugliest crash award last year.. 70+ mph wheel off the road exiting the chicanes and went highside... cartwheels and endo's for over 150 yards........ gotta love cowhide and helmets... warning becareful of drafting speeds in the chicanes.... they can put you over the top on this road..

see ya there

Leaving in 3 hours and will be there in 12! Can't wait for us CT guys to wreck you FL guys. You see, we've been able to practice on REAL hills not just on the parking garage of Disney World.

Well, 12 hour drive and I'm sitting at the hotel ready to eat breakfast and go skate. I went to the hill last night and OMFGSPMFIS. Crazy hill, huge turns, it's going to be fast. Food time.

NICEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I wish I could be there... next year I totally wanna go... it just so happens that I have off today (Friday) and its an official no school day every year at my school lol......

Goood luck man.

**nervous ned** · 10-20-2006 03:00 PM

yeah good luck RS, fill us in on the weekend; sounds like mad fun.

**chicagolongboards** · 10-20-2006 03:06 PM

I would liked to have gone this year, but I have been too busy with family matters to get away for the weekend. Hopefully next year will prove to be a good year for me, and I'll make it out to some events.

**Rabid Skunk** · 10-20-2006 08:13 PM

That hill is so damn fast it's incredible. You only need to footbrake once, at the top of the hill before the hard right ninety. After that you can go straight through all the chicanes at top speed. You end up going pretty fast into the LONG straight to the finishline. You can almost get bored going through that but you have to just stay in your tuck and wait it out. Then into the uhaul and up the course you go.

Tomorrow is qualifying and maybe racing if the rain doesn't hold out for Sunday. I'll update tomorrow.s

**Rabid Skunk** · 10-21-2006 09:31 PM

Today was even faster. Olle, a swedish kid, hit 67-68 mph today on stand up. We had qualifying and I qualified 9th, Brian (Sofa King) 10th, Mike Duquette 11th, Skatardude10 6th, and I <3 cops 14th. Should be some good races tomorrow.

**RustyBurrito55** · 10-21-2006 09:58 PM

Me too

Downhill races RULE

**Rabid Skunk** · 10-21-2006 10:02 PM

Mike and Brian had some good falls. On Mike's last run today he took a HUGE slam at the end of corner 1. He got some good air and rolled over his shoulder/head. I haven't crashed yet, but I really should stop saying that so loud or else the haybails might hear it.

**nervous ned** · 10-22-2006 02:50 AM

just curious, what kind of speeds are you seeing? anyone GPS'd it?
hope brian and mike are ok... sounds pretty intense.
thanks for the updates.

**Rabid Skunk** · 10-22-2006 05:47 AM

Swedish kid, Olle 16 years old, clocked 109 kph = 67.7mph. He is just so fast. The Lugers are hitting well over 70 and sound like jets when they come through the chicanes.
