this video looks like it may be worth watching when it comes out...especially to perfect our french for when people yell at us or w/e

YouTube - Go Longboard (2009 Skateboarding)

That video makes me want to go ride soooo much.

Gonna hole up in the library tonight, finish this studying, and take frequent boarding breaks on the little art building hill. I want to carve down iron maiden soon. Anyboard have some cone bushings they want to part with? The stock ones on my dregs have no rebound at all. They just feel dead.

[SLAB City Jake]

I may be able to help you out man. I'll see what I have laying around. i can carve the crap out of green venom cones. orange and yellow cones go on my mini when I want to get an ankle stabilization workout.

still got those extra 180mm charger hangers I let you borrow?

[SLAB City Jake]

Ian: I have about 34 bushings (mostly unused randal's) laying around that I'll never put on a setup bc I'm too busy playing around with different venom bushings...

4 88a black barrels
3 88a black short cones
4 92a red tall cones
6 92a red short cones
2 89a yellow tall cones
2 89a yellow short cones
1 95a green tall cone
1 95a green short cone
1 97a grey tall cone
2 97a grey short cones

1 85a yellow venom barrel
1 93a green venom cone

2 90a red khiro barrels*

2 ??a (hard) white s9 tall cones*

2 ??a (soft) orange-ish barrels that came on my kaha's *

* = has been on a set up before. The rest of the bushings are brand new.

the 88a randal barrels and the 89a randal cones might be pretty rad if you wanna carve.

I'll trade you all of the bushings for the 150mm charger hangers we swapped a while ago. (don't forget about them 180mm's too lol).

If you only need a couple then you owe me a burrito.

Everyone: if Ian only needs a couple then the rest of you can have w/e you need in trade for a)fajita tacos (1 or 2 bushings) or b) a burrito (4+ bushings) lol.

Mitch: do you still need pivot cups? I have 4 randal pivot cups if you need them.


rim tomorrow evening anybody?

I might need some bushings according to Luke showing me what's the best set up for the Salt Flat.

I'm in for the rim, any early skate?

[deathfrog]

I vote rim wednesday, 8:00ish. I need 2 small hard pivot cups for my crails, there were some in that khiro kit.

I'll be at da rim as soon as I can get up there/get the durians/slide a's set up. I won't be staying super late. I should still be there around 8ish.

wheeler has that khiro kit, I think I was supposed to get it back from him the day he broke his collar bone. I just heard from him today, I'll see when I can get it from him.

Luke: any more details about the UTSA thing this weekend?

no real "new" details, still looking for more of the slab to at least show up and make it look like i had a bunch of ppl for an "official" event though.

is the plan rim at 8? anything before that?

Just got back from skating the rowdy bomber hill on campus. (freakin cold)
This may sound unusual coming from me, but that ain't no hill (or a campus).

Better getcha pump on if you wanna win this one. What prizes will be put up?

like i said its not going to be the full top of the lot to the bottom in order to get it a little more even. so far im putting up raffle prizes of a set of bearings, 2 sets of bushings, and a mystery grand prize that looks alot like a gravity carve 42" tickets are guna be 2$ a pop or 5$ for 3. as far as winner of races, i duno i got nothing atm. perhaps that set of gfh wheels i got laying around.

p.s. UTSA isn't that bad.

[TexasBomber]

UTSA isn't that bad.

I know, it's really come into it's own in the last ten years.
It's just a really really small campus.

Hey Tom, bring the pink reflex bushings with ya to the rim if you're going, I wanna try them out!

[ibadfish]

Yeah Ive been meaning to give you the kit back. I can get it to you tomorrow.

I've been staying away from the boards becuase I'm jealous you guys get to skate and I don't. It really bums me out. I'm itching to get back out though.

The shoulder's healing up, have full movement, just can't put alot of weight on it. Sucks cuz I really want to work on my slides. I need a better way to stop than footbraking at higher speeds.

[enox]

Hey Jake thanks for the reply man. I'll take those 4 92a red tall cones off your hands for a burrito and a high five. Don't worry about the 150 hangars I don't think I'll be using them again. We can call it an even trade if you want (the 150s for the 180s). I've gotten attached to the 180s and the other 180 hangars I've got are kinda beat up.

Not looking good for me to skate on Wednesday. I have two tests on Thursday and I haven't made enough headway into this studying I gotta do. After those two tests though I'm gonna want to skate for sure.

Luke: What's the RB sesh looking like on Thursday? Still 8 or is it 10 on Thursdays?

Tom: don't know if Luke told you but I paid him your money for the bushings :] Those elims have really grown on me after riding them more and more. I love how much rebound they have at speed, even if it sucks going slow and not being able to turn as much. They've gotten better after a little breaking in though.

[deathfrog]

I know, it's really come into it's own in the last ten years.
It's just a really really small campus.

And it's split in half, 15 miles apart, ****ing dumbest idea ever.

[enox]

Dammit. I should be asleep instead of doodling in my notebook trying not to study Microeconomics.

What's on my mind? Glad you asked.

[TexasBomber]

Hey Tom, bring the pink reflex bushings with ya to the rim if you're going, I wanna try them out!

Fred, I'll bring 2 pink (78a) barrels, 2 lime barrels and 2 lime tall cones (80a), I think something in that combo will work. What the early sesh lookin like, rim at 6?

Tom: don't know if Luke told you but I paid him your money for the bushings :] Those elims have really grown on me after riding them more and more. I love how much rebound they have at speed, even if it sucks going slow and not being able to turn as much. They've gotten better after a little breaking in though.

Yeah man your paid up, technically I owe you 2 dollars. The bushing were 4 bucks each.

[maekhamin]

Cya guys later, keep skating, and priya (I never know if I'm spelling you're name right) I'm faster then you

there's only one way to prove this sh!t once and for all... i vote for a garage race in houston

jake: where's my taco/burrito?

luke: im up for UTSA race anytime...

i havent been able to skate lately due to sudden enormous amount of schoolwork that keeps on coming... but i'll hit yall up maybe next week or the week after that...
