well, a friend told me to post a picture of my new pavel gog wooden slalom board here...
running orange/lime zigs; bennett front, tracker rtx plate/venture hangar rear
future plans for this board:
get a few races under my belt then upgrade to some different trucks or something
had it out for a little bit today (couldn't have it out too much, the sidewalks are all wet and stuff)... but man, this board rides NICE. props to the pavel crew, everybody who gave me advice on setting it up. i hope to have it out this weekend on a mini TS course...i'll for sure let you guys know if/when i do

Funny, "inovation" is almost the same in French, English and German...
Just to remind you that the first race of the Pirate-freezing-season-serie will take place the 25th of November at the Trocadéro, Paris, France.

Ok donald, i think i'm on your side of this,with the correct interpretation of the pictures you put up,you put up. I don't want to use caps, that's yelling and might be considered rude he he, so i'll just say it again for emphasis,you guys put up the pics of your prototypes. When you put it out there, it's up for gossip good bad...whatever and it works for you it's interest in the product,most of the crosstalk doesn't amount to anything,some people might think pics of prototypes are a stupid thing to post ,imagine a cast chinese version going to market,in march... nah i don't think so either . So why are the pics there? if not for feedback,you just want a bunch of posts exclaiming how brilliant gog's design is and questions about where the line starts to purchase your lovely trucks. I like the pics, aber ich verde imer minne twie pfennig rine smizen,sorry if my german is mispelled,deutch ferderber.

I'll be one of those spending the winter season on testing these prototypes. I'll be working on it with the same effort as Jason did on his rear truck. I already gave input on issues you probably might not have detected at first or second glance.
A pre-prototype version of Indy-whatever-style front truck has already been used by Christoph Baumann, who will be the other man in charge of testing and analyzing the new fronts.
btw.
While you are having fun at the snowboard area, we'll be fixing the issues. Ain't you glad to see any pictures at all? ;-)

I think Frank himself could easily explain every little detail of these trucks. I talked with him a couple times, and I'm just too damn stupid to keep all of the stuff he has been talking about, of the exact tolerances, which are veeeery thin but needed..., and all what comes together. He even doesn't need us to tell him what could be perfected, as a racer and not to mention as a constructure designer working at ford, he has it all worked out, so you just have to buy them and ENJOY THE RIDE! I know some are just showing great interest, but some are just trying to be a smart ass, but thatnks for sharing.
peace

don't take this too personal,but...
do you guys really think we are too stupid to create something that
works,with all its features involved.
all this guessing on pics and where what could be and where not.
dince you don't have the actual drawings of the trucks in question nor
the real deal in your hands for inspection all this guessing around won't
really help or improve on anything(not that i see any points right now that
are in need of such).
the protos went through an experimental phase since day 100 of the gog truck history.they were there for a very long time.all the experiences and learning we made with the other trucks went into those.
the r&d part by several teammembers which happens now is only there to go 100% into the right direction.frank is a good skater himself-he skates world class level in his group and with all his knowledge he is very well able to construct something that works.the recent trucks being introduced by him to the market clearly showed that there is an improvement on steering abilty possible.the recalls we had were around 5%,which is not that much when you consider xxx trucks being sold.we learned from intital mistakes(yes,there were a few),corrected those parts and came up with something better in each production batch.
right now the gog trucks are the non plus ultra-whatever anybody else says.
so with all the hard work and constructing involved do you really think we would make such inferior mistakes as f.e. adding not enough holes into the sled for proper wedging?
don't take this wrong,again,just trying to show you where we are coming from.
