I can make it out to Vans Thurs or Friday. LBK or Brian P, do you still have a board I can borrow? I think my long board is too long for the park.

Sorry to double post.
I am trying to get a solid count of the guys/girls that will be racing in Front Royal on November 30th. Remember the entry fee is $50 but you must pre-register.
Please drop me a line before this Sunday and let me know if you will be racing.
The course will be approximately 30 cones. Surface is 6 out of 10. If you do not want to pay the entry fee to race slalom please come out and help the downhill guys by volunteering to be course workers. You will get a free lunch and t-shirt, plus you will get a close up view of some killer downhill skating.

Just wanted to say thanks to Jeff @ Bozi for the awesome complete I won at Vans banked slalom. Mad Bomber 10 X 46, Randall 180s, 83mm Abec 11s (75 duro), and pleasure tool bearings. Sweet ride. Had fun setting up our display next to Johnny Rad! Thanks Cabbage! Its always a blast skating at DC.

If you or a friend or family member are interested in working as one of the course workers Nove 30th in Front Royal, Va. please email me for information. You get the job you want, in the order I receive your emails.
Working with the Blue Smoke Racing Team is a good way to get the training and learn how events are run, just incase you are planning one of your own. Regular volunteers get the prime spots and extra perks.
All Volunteers Jobs have a few perks such as a free lunch, t-shirt, special recognition and most likely a few $$ for your time.
News- Darren Lott will be making it out east for this event so bring your Survival Guide and get it personally autographed. Dont have one? He will have a few for sale trackside.
As Darren put it "I will be thrilled to sign Survival Guides and answer questions.I packed my luge and buttboard today. I'm ready to go."
Email me soon

Olliewood...slalom...what a weekend!

Olliewood: to call it epic would be a massive understatement. Hours and hours of non-stop shredding. And to see Gelfand doing ollies is to KNOW the source.
Slalom was fun, but I suck at flat courses with limited push. Oh well, something else to practice. Oh did I mention, I had fun? Thanks also to Turner, Tracker, and ABEC 11!
That 66 guy can ride vertical too...
It was Corrosion...I remember there was heavy hair farmer/skinhead action that night. That wouldn't have happened at an MDC show.

It pays to to get to the race site early enough to evaluate the course surface and choose equipment accordingly. I thought that surely my hardest wheels would be the best for a course on the smooth concrete floor of the skatepark, so I decided to arrive with them installed, assuming that I was set. Unfortunately, I arrived with only enough time to take 2 practice runs and then start declaring some times. The floor of the skatepark was so dusty that I was slipping and sliding even though the course was flat and straight. Lesson learned, hopefully.

Big Thanks to Bozi Boards for the complete he donated!
Jeff wanted us to figure a different way to give out the board. The Rally Banked Slalom just seemed fitting so anyone could win the board.
Note, we also gave away a set of SixTracks that Buddy pulled out of Mike McGill's box. So in a way, Mike McGill also sponsored the event.
***More info on the contest calendar in a few days.

whenever two or more gather, and compete against each other or against the clock, it IS a race.
at least that's how I see it.
I don't think rick travelled 700 miles for "not a race".
okay, so it wasn't a BIG race, but still...

Sorry P, but yeah, Rick Stanziale was the fastest of the day. A big improvement over what I saw of him at FB.
Still, it was not a race. The rest of the swag will be used at future events or shared with another promoter`s event.
Just what am I gonna do with 3 cases of water, a case of Coke and Sprite, 50 Sabrett hot dogs and buns?

Well actually, there aren`t any. The monsoon shut that course down. The secondary course turned out to be great, Problem was, only three guys showed up.
I spoke to a few that were s`posed to race and thier contention was that they only wanted to skate Dump Rd. And I don`t blame them. I probably would`ve bailed too. But what they didn`t know was this parking garage is a fun place to skate.
Chuck and Rick sey a relative tight course and layer changed it to a cyber course and ran times. I posted a 13.2 sec and Chuck broke under 13, while Rick was consistently in the low 11`s.
I also set a SG on the steeper parts of the garage and we rode that fer a while and then did a few all out bombing runs (man was my Bonita schweet there).
Since it really wasn`t enough to call a race, each participant picked one item out of the swag box, R got the single RTS truck and Chuck grabbed the single RTS. I chose the Avalons as I`ve never had the chance to try them yet.
Basically consolation prizes for showing up. But don`t get me wrong, we had fun skating today. This could`ve been bigger had there been a larger turn out. The low attendance was due to a few factors...weather was the biggest factor but with a second dry site, it didn`t need be. Also not having a signup sheet on the contest page and longer notice before the event. Lessons learned...
We`ll see what january may hold in store.....

No offense guys, but does all this mud slinging really
qualify as 'Events'?
I know, maybe a race called "Mud Sling Rd Race" and
then your posts won't get booted out to another thread
like, say, the Bulletin board..

The dead dog was left at the entrance to the dump last week. Sorry if my pre-race humor offends you (no, actually I'm not sorry).
Come back when you've got the cojones to sign your name to your post.
Have a nice day :-)
