hey shapeshifter, this isn't the Central Park race, if that's what you're thinking. This is a snowboard halfpipe in Central Park. not sure if there's any confusion in that first post.

I have no idea how many people show up.

If weather gets better (ie, no snow/ice/rain), does anyone want to take some laps around Central Park next Saturday? Then hit up Brooklyn Banks, or Prospect Park for slides.

Perhaps the Pennsylvania Longboard Gentleman's Club would like to join us.
Yo Worm, Crappy, Sweatpants -- what's up???
