Welcome to the fish, what board did you order (sorry not a michigan native so I can't tell you how good the runs are around there, but I'm sure someone can)

Who would be interested in a miichigan longboarding sticker? If you have heard of the website Zazzle, they can be printed up for very cheap (like a dollar a sticker) and then we could just put them on our boards or whatever and represent the mitten? I'm sure Feenixx Customs could come up with something, or we've got a few images floating around. I'd be happy to order them if people wanna throw down like 50 cent or whatever at the Madness in the Mitten push race?

Mos Def!!! Conner, you missed out on a great sess. The bigger of the two hills (a big S with a 90 right hander at the beginning) was intense. We were ripping both curves at 35mph (feels much faster than 35 in a straight line).

I need to replace my full face, that wind was chillin' me to the bones yesterday.

Any stickers representing the Michigan scene in general would be awesome and I'd definitely throw down for one from whoever had them.

I know we'll probably make some go green stickers to give out so we'll do MIM stickers with them to make it a cheaper bulk order. Jason (my brother) is pretty sweet with his artwork so we'll work something out. It's about time I make Jay's azs do something anyway. If anyone has any graphic that you think is sweet than pm it to me and we'll consider it, otherwise I'll get Jay crackin. Also, If you want to make and bring completely different stickers of your own than that'd be awesome. I'll buy one of each as long as they don't suck

. Anyone who rides as part of any crew or team are welcome to bring some stickers and stuff reppin themselves.

So i just stumbled upon this deal over at eastbilt:

Stickers

Basically it costs 25 dollars, you get to use 1 background color and 1 font color, but you get anywhere from 250 - 25 stickers depending on the size (rectangle, circle, dimensions). Split 5 ways is 5 bucks each (**** yeah differential variable equation calculus)
