Glenn Chapman. He's in Massachusetts (or somewhere up there where there's already eight inches of snow on the ground.)

I don't know his monicker here but he's registered by his full name on SS.com

No skating for me, I just finished off a batch last weekend. This may be the last run of this part. Aluminum and machine time is getting expensive. They are $20 and $5 for shipping in the US. If you order multiple toe stops I will try and cut you a deal on the shipping. If you are outside US, let me know and I will quote you shipping. If you are intested contact me at glenn_chapman@comdel DOT com
Regards,
Glenn

Raise yer prices.

Seriously, if the demand is there and your costs go up, pass it along. I know you run the risk of doing a batch and THEN finding out people won't pay your higher price, but that's something every manufacturer takes into account.

Really Glenn, if the demand is there and the only way you can make it work is charge FIFTY a piece, then consider it. You're dealing with a group of skaters who think nothing of buying $250 decks, $225 truck and $80 bearings. Why not a precision machine-crafted accessory for more than $20?

I'm just sayin' . . . .

Of course, I also understand if things have changed and you just don't have the time to stand over a stamp or drill and do the deed.

if this is the last batch I will have to order another just to be safe. This is by far the most comfortable toe stop I have used

Right now $20 is working for me as long as my cost stay close to were I am now. I hope that people like them and use them. It does get tough to stand in front of a machine on the weekend when the weather is nice, so this maybe the last batch this season (I have about 25 available). If there is further interest I may consider doing one more run in the spring.

Here you go, I want three so far maybe more Actually I think is better to call it a foot stop than a toe stop since it cradels the hole side of you're foot. (Photo was copy from slalomskateboarder.com)

Ah, i thought it was for pumping/slalom, but for some reason i kept picturing some sort of rail that ran the toe side of a board. But then i couldn't figure out the use.
