Dudes! As always, I am super stoked after riding with you guys tonight. What a blast. Maybe sometime soon we can meet up in Olmos Park again. I wanna show you guys the route I was talking to Mitch and Matt about. You take Devine north from Hildebrand, and you have to time the light at the bottom right, or you're toast! Maybe I'm too crazy, and we should try something else.

What was that stuff that fell from the sky tonight? It made the ground all wet and smelled like . . . . wait it couldn't be . . . . was that RAIN?<!

[deathfrog]

Ben dude good skate man. We're probably going to try and make it out to iron horse again on Saturday, Jake said he'll pick you up since we changed plans on you at the last minute.

Fun, but slow, skate tonight.

For you new guys looking for new stuff tyler knows where it's at, check out SundaeSkates.com longboard skate company. They've got good prices ('08 avengers for 110), a good selection, and plus all silverfish users get 5&#37; off. They're based out of Austin, so if you're up there give them a holla. Don't buy anything from zumiez unless you absolutley have to. There's also a place over off of stone oak and 281 called headquarters that has some stuff every once in a while, but other than that you'll have to get your #### online.

Caleb:

Sundae Skates - Speedboards & Longboards

Wider glider completes are $148 with free shipping on sundae skates, gripped with drifters and indy 169's, bearings, spacers, ect.

Dervish complete with paris and drifters is $242 with free shipping. Plus you get 5% off, so the dervish comes down to $230 and the earthwing to $140.

Support the locals bro.

And don't get big zigs, I'd suggest retro freerides (80a) or gravity drifters (77a or 74a), they'll be much more versatile, especially when it comes time to learn to slide. Also, getting some retro or venom bushings with your order wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Oh and I vote earthwing.

Dude, Ben great skate man. My apologies for having you drive all the way out to Iron Horse. Lesson learned by all tonight: don't listen to matt cry. lol

New kids: good meeting you guys. Hopefully ya'll can make it out to more sessions. Get some pads/gloves and come to the dh sessions early wednesdays and saturdays/sundays.

Caleb (sp?): hey man I have no experience with ew, I've seen dervishes and ridden them only a little. The dervish seems pretty versatile. I would say go with that, but that's strictly IMO.

The plan for saturday is as follows: Babcock @ 6:00 to warm up. Then to mordor. Then to Iron Horse. Then to kyle seale to finish the loop. It'll be dark by then, kyle seale should be lit. Anyways, we can hop onto cielo vista to the springs to work that turn (and not wipe out if it's dark and then go to UTSA/The rim to slide around. Grab food, then hit the garages. If there's any energy left we'll head over to evans/huebner &stone oak till we can stand anymore. The plan will only change in terms of the order in which the dh runs are done. I'll paddle a friggin boat across an ocean of matt's tears to get to iron horse if that's what it takes. Ben, I'll give you a ride for the whole sesh if you want bro, our bad for making you drive all the way out there.

Matt: cry less, drive across town multiple times a day more.

peace
