Hey brothers and sisters-just wanted to give a huge shout out and props to Texas Outlaw Mark "Gumby" Gosser for his 1st place at the Texas Slalom race a coupla days ago! You own it Gumby and SB is proud to be able to boast about you bro! AND Stubbsy kicks arse too...AND...a big thanks goes out to Texas Eddy who is probably one of-if not the coolest guy on the slalom scene. Here's to many more grassroot slalom events!

I don't know what you're riding but Longer boards and softer wheels for speed. Put cones on a hill. That's slalom. WHat city do you live in? Check out bonelessone.com in sessions to find wiggling going down. MF

Mathew of the Texas Outlaws has just e-mailed me to let me know that the city has approved the hill. So get ready Boys and girls!!!!! :)
Yes If we have time we will be running a single lane tight slalom on the bottom of big view drive. I'm thinking that 6 to 6and a half feet.

How tight is tight?

For me it comes down to how many cones per second. I mean, tight has to be tight, but even then it isn't really tight until you get up to around 4 cones per second. But then, I am not really into the flatland "pump contest" type of racing. I like there to be a hill with a real risk of injury you know, some "gnar".

Heard some rumors about some tight slalom. What do you consider TS. I like runnng 5.0 to 5.5 fts with step overs and a 4.5 thrown in there just for the hell of it. Then again TS can be 6fts at a very fast speed. Your Amigo Eddy Texas Outlaws/Pavel skates

I saw the discussions on your message board about maybe doing a tight slalom on Saturday of the Sizzler. Is that going to happen?

Keep us posted and lets all hope the weather holds good for Febuary. I bought a plane ticket and I am hooking up with cat. Can't wait. See ya soon.

The Sizzler is not in La Quinta'a system but we will be fixing this problem on Monday. We are still working on getting the big hill for Saturday's Race but it is looking good. More than Likely we will have three starting points on that hill and racers can choose their level.

OK here goes you are correct. I called La Quinta this AM. They did not have a clue. Shame, Shame someone on the TEAM is giving me false info. Who could that be, uuhhmmm "SATAN". I have blocked off 50-60 rooms. Ask for the Texas Sizzler and we get the discount at 85$ a night. Call this # this afternoon and all should be ready to go. Phone # 1-512-443-1774.
