    Haha, long runs. Not in Texas the longest run we have is LCMain, but it's a main BLVD and has lots of traffic. To be polite to the neighborhood, that's speedboard only. Theres some stuff where you can definitely do both though.

    found some sick new hills out in east austin/ springfield today super fresh grey asphalt (imo the best skating surface possible) with the wind at my back it was a good 40-45 mph run that was decently long with no wind i think it would be a good 35mph super fun hill

    heavy traffic even at night? i have other bushings and wheels so i might leave my buddy behind and bomb some hills. if you wana meet up and skate when we're there let me know. the more the merrier. where is the best skating? my brother lives in colorado springs and we visit him once a year. never brought my board tho.

    LC isn't really a night run. Unless you like lots of deer and not being able to see. I'd definitely be down to skate when you come in. give the sundae skates shop line a ring (512 428 6091) Either me or Dorian will answer it.

    Yeah. I think you guys know Mike from our team. If any one from sundae skates bowls, y'all are more than welcome to come skate with us friday night. The place we are staying at is owned by a guy that builds skate parks for a living, and he has a vert ramp and a bowl chillin in his back yard. Or if y'all just want to mingle with the SFA, AtM, and UTSA guys, think we are going to have a meet and greet/ party friday night when we come in. Plus hitting up the bowl. 817-597-5750 - clif or give Mike W. a call.

    Alright so November 7th is a Saturday, So are yall skating sunday or saturday? If you're skating saturday, SFA will be around lake travis skating until about 3. But if it's sunday we are leaving around noon and won't be able to meet up with yall.

    P.S. Any one know what kind of speeds we can expect from lime creek of the oasis runs. We all have some decent set up for DH (mine personally is an evo, 180mm paris, 77mm speed vents, bones swiss) Just trying to get an idea of what to prepare for MPH wise.

    I have no idea what that video had to do with LC, and I am pretty sure 65+ is a little out of our teams league for now. We are floating around the 40 mph range.

    I am talking Lime creek. Tommy and Dorian are gonna hook up with us so hopefully they can size us up and take us to appropriate hills. Don't think those guys are gonna steer us wrong.

    well crap, tommy was sayin earlier today he was gonna roll out after work, but I understand stuff comes up. And the evo never goes backwards much faster than 15, no worries. Ordered the new wheels and bushings today so hopefully she's more hill ready in a couple of days. And like I said, we are just gona take hills as they come. We will know real fast if they are outta our skill range when we roll up to em.
