I don't mean to annoy any long borders but do you mind if ask ifs there's any street skating to be had in lanzarote? A few ramps or maybe a nice lanzarote love park?

I'm not just a Popsicle kick flipper you can catch me carving the bowls and pools of Romford and meanwhile gardens in London

fibretec bullet
On 2/17/2003 claude wrote in from (203.98.nnn.nnn)

hey craig and all! i agree with craig that the bullet has got to be one of the most stable boards ive ridin. i havent ridin that many but enough to know. my old board was long and solid... a big 47inch gravity street carver with RII on them and my bullet is just as stable, maybe even more! but i do know it is alot more responsive feels like a down hill board should handle. its a formula 1 car of skare boards!
later guys and good luck for the race comin up in CT!

fibretec bullet
On 12/24/2002 craig wrote in from (168.209.nnn.nnn)

the Fibretec bullet rocks,

I stopped riding the bullet for a while and rode a drop through, which i thought would be more stable. after a few months on the drop through (keeping the bullet as a cruise/carve/slide/push around board) i realised that despite being better in the turns, the bullet was actually more stable. I'm finding it hard to better this board.

info@fibretec.ch

Reinke, the manufacturer surfer dood should be in SA to catch some waves early 2003, e-mail and try make a plan!!!

Hey Floyd
Its about time you checked this post, i want to ride one of your drop-thru's when i get back. If you want me to bring you some wheels or trucks let me know. Randal's and Abec 11's are a piece of piss to get over here. £20 each for a DH or R-II truck and £35 for a set of Flashbacks, £41 for Flywheels. And i know how bad you need Randal's.
So are you the only one left who skates from the Table Veiw side or what. I'm going to bring back a few boards for you to try out - Landyachtz Race and i'm trying to get my hands on a Fibretec Bullet (not an easy task.) I've cut and dropped my Dregs but i haven't had the chance to race it as its almost always raining here, plus the fact that there are no hills around London. I might get one of those Bozi Wedgenosed pintails too.
Ah well laters, see you in about 2 and a half months.
