Ooooo sounds fun. I know that B'ham cops are douches but who cares. Is it kinda secluded? I'd love to hit it.
I am in, just let me know when. The hill is pretty secluded and actually a nice little ripper. There are only a couple of houses and minimal traffic that I have seen. Birmingham cops will really only give us trouble if we are seen skating the "Uptown" area (garages and sidewalks). I have successfully ridden the streets of the 'ham and had no problems. If we keep an uber low profile in the garages, we should be okay.
I just got a new pool deck on Saturday. Antihero - It's the Wood XXL 9.0" x 32.25" Locked, stocked and ready to rock with some Indy 169s and Bones SPF wheelz. Tried it out at Riley on Sunday. Gnarstified! The Drifter is just a bit too beefy and this was a perfect replacement. This has the same shape, it's just scaled down for better action in the park.
What's goin' on this weekend?

Good info and good to finally hear from you! I thought you were dead. I had a feeling that that replacement might be coming. The Drifter is an awesome deck but pretty huge for park. That setup sounds killer, basically mine only .75" shorter. As for this weekend, I'm Halloweening, so we'll see about Sunday. I still won't be paid by then so maybe we'll keep it in the Lansing area.

After the garage session I'll be more confident of figuring out the EL area. (I'm horribly direction impaired) I need to find an excuse to take courses at state so I can stay down there for a semester and have some fun.

i know theres a few people on here around the southfield area....anyone ever been on the golf course behind the police station on evergreen just south of 696? (can't remember the name of it) me and my buddy snuck on the other day, only rode twice on the same path but it was actually a fun little steep path. and there were a couple more that i wanted to take but couldn't because people were still golfing lol.
Nice looking shirts Pete! great site and cool designs. You're girlfriends hot . Keep your eyes peeled for our 'Cats Pajamas' line coming next year.
Made our first press yesterday. Hope it turns out.

Absolutely. We're gonna start them out at one for $15, or two for $25. 20% off for guys that we've ridden with or that post in the Go Green forum. Eventually we'll be powder coating them a variety of colors (most likely blue,green,red,and purple).
We'll put more pics up soon.

Heard about the presses, can't wait to see what comes out of them. Feel like letting us know what the shapes will be like? I'm certainly not as picky as peter and could possibly convert over from my DH board (and possibly the demon as well) depending what comes out
