Whats an Event?
On 12/28/2002 arab wrote in from (24.24.nnn.nnn)

John thanx,

I was actually just doing what Slappy has tried to do elsewhere, He thinks he's the NCDSA internet police and has to stick his nose where it doesnt belong, so I thought I would just return the favor. Maybe little kids shouldnt play with their parents computors?

But since Slappy is out trying to patrol NCDSA I just thought that his post about going to a skatepark has nothing to do with an event, maybe he should take all this illegal activity to the riding location page here at NCDSA.

Kids...........they just dont know any better!

Peace John

Arab

Ref: Arab's inquiries
On 12/28/2002 John Dillon wrote in from (204.255.nnn.nnn)

Yo Arab! Welcome back....I consider going to the sk8park or practicing worth posting on this event forum especially if one is trying to invite/roundup others to join....my 2.5 hour drive in holiday traffic to skate Vans-Woodbridge yesterday was an event in itself...as I could've skated there in probably less time had there been no salt/sand still on the roads. I utilize this forum as a means to communicate w/others, especially the DC Crew rather than use long distance phone calls all the time since money is sort of tight for me right now. Also, unofficial races seem to be announced here too.

South Florida Slalom Saturday
On 12/27/2002 Chuck wrote in from (204.32.nnn.nnn)

"Two hundred years of American technology has unwittingly created a massive cement playground of unlimited potential. But it was the minds of 11 year olds that could see that potential." -C.R. Stecyk



After being ejected twice in the last three days from our usual favorite spot in downtown West Palm Beach, the hunt was on for a new hill. They are few and far between in South Florida...but then again they're right under your nose if you open your eyes a bit. Interstate highway construction often yields all manner of skateable terrain, albeit temporary. Inspection of an ongoing airport access project revealed a nice off-ramp with unused pavement. In the background is an on-ramp with pavement so fresh it was still too soft to skate, even with our seasonably cool mid-60's temperatures yesterday.

The road was swept, the course was set and marked, and warm-up practice runs began. No sooner did the skating start than a pickup truck came screaming up the road...we have learned to recognize when someone is angry just by the way they drive, or stop, or get out of their car. It is something all skaters learn due to constant exposure. The truck was being driven angrily. "You guys know you are trespassing on a government construction project, you are guilty of a felony, and if you don't start picking up and leaving now I'm calling the Highway Patrol?" While the 11-year-old mind can discern the skate potential of modern architecture, the 40 year old mind that started skating at 11 has learned not only how to discern such terrain, but how to deal with any "officials" who would seek to limit their access to such terrain.

End result...there will be a big slalom session in West Palm Beach tomorrow. We will be meeting at the usual spot on Iris St. and skating 'til noon or we get thrown out, whichever comes first. At noon, we will be skating the construction project...the release was faxed over from the construction company's lawyers this morning...for 4 hours the road is ours. It is wonderful what a little sweet-talking, coupled with the proper alignment of the stars, can get you.

Peter Verdone, Alan Gelfand, Brady Mitchell, and Steve Marinak may all be there. The definites, along with ourselves, are Mark McCree, John Gilmour, Kieth Hollien, and Bobby Mandarino. We will also be at Olliewood tonight trying to convince some the other old-timers (and young uns too) to come out and try (or re-try) slalom. It will be a huge time, and we will be there...will you? E-mail for directions if you want to attend. Cameras will be present, still and video. Possibly news cameras, too.

Oh yeah, speaking of sweet-talking folks, it looks like the Virgin Hills of Port Orange may yet be ridden one more time. The developer who was so angry when he first came to throw us out last month may provide a release of liability, and close the streets for us to do it one more time before the streets become public. Next weekend is the target date. Stay tuned...

DC Saturday slalom
On 12/20/2002 WesE wrote in from (208.59.nnn.nnn)

Jeff, Justin, and any lurkers hoping to break out with the DC slalom outlaws,
Tomorrow is too close to X-Mes for some of the racers, so next official DC Outlaw race is the morning of January 4th at Fountainhead Park in Prince William County. But Brian is still having a 'practice' race tomorrow. I would say it's at the G-Burg P&R, but I won't speak for Brian.

Well, Brian went snowboarding today. The weather actually looks OK to me for slalom, unless the wind picks up. But I am too dead from not enough sleep and getting up early today. Maybe next weekend we'll slalom.
