Close Encounter of the DownHill Billies Kind
On 3/23/2005 North Carolina Longboarder - DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Lenny and Dave G: Check this out. Justin (red headed longboarding youth patroller of the DHB crew) had his first skatepark experience this past weekend when he went home back to Maryland to visit his folks. He is riding transition for the very first time at Landsdown when this "older dude" as he described him comes in and starts ripping the place...the dude was Cabbage! They got to talking and he told Justin he knew you guys! Small skate world huh?

The DHB's are everywhere! Just wait and see!

LENNY hey man can't wait to see you guy's. Wish I could ride, but I will have more time to hang out with you and the rest of our out of state brother billies. as far as the shirts go I think I've got you covered with both designs, the one you've seen, the new hillbillie style design (more hillbillie then billie goat)but still aggressive and the charter member shirt. they are all good. Assuming ups shows up like normal on thurs. Anyway call me anytime on cell 704-437-2913 with any questions or request. Talk to you soon bro. D. HOLT

The directions should have read:
FROM I-77 SOUTH (Coming from West Bygod Virginia):

Instead of NORTH...you boys from West Bygod Virginia know what direction you have to travel...Remember, Statesville is exactly one gas tank from WV.

DHB Jam Directions
On 3/21/2005 North Carolina Longboarder- DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Dudes and Dudettes,
So far, we have Lenny Poage, Dave Gale, Wesley Tucker, Mark Fuentes, Gary Saenz,
Carl Creider, Ben Barkey and a couple of others coming in from out of town to join the local DHB Crew for the Jam. Local interest has been high for the last two weeks so I suspect we will far surpass the first jam in numbers.

Here are the directions from those coming into for the jam from out of town.
On I-77 Take Exit 45 (this is only 7 miles south of I-40)

FROM I-77 NORTH (Coming from West Bygod Virginia):
Exit 45 Turn right at top of ramp onto Amity Hill Road
Take a left onto Murdock Road (approx. 1/2 mile)
Follow Murdock Road until is crosses US 21 in Troutman
Road turns into Old Mountain Road
Turn right into Barium Valley Development (first new development on right)
This is The SPOT
If you go to South Iredell High School on left you have gone too far..turn around Sucka!

FROM I-77 NORTH (Coming From South Carolina- Gamecock country)
Exit 45 Turn left at top of ramp onto Amity Hill Road (cross I-77)
Take a left onto Murdock Road (approx. 1/2 mile)
Follow Murdock Road until is crosses US 21 in Troutman
Road turns into Old Mountain Road
Turn right into Barium Valley Development (first new development on right)
This is The SPOT
If you go to South Iredell High School on left you have gone too far..turn around Sucka!

PARKING: When you come into the development the first road on the left dead ends into a cul de sac, please park as far down that street as possible. We need to keep as many cars out of the skate area as possible. This development is being marketed and we need to be as low profile as 40 skaters and friends can be..
The F-150 Chairlift is in the shop but other shuttle vehicles will be available and we will shuttle riders and gear down to the bottom of the hill or you can ride your boards down.




Tee shirts will be for sell at the jam so bring cash if you want one. We will have the prices figured out by tomorrow. For those of you wanting to be Charter Members special shirts will be available with a designation on the sleeve and will cost an additional $5. All proceeds from shirt sales minus the cost of the shirts and screen printing will go to fund the website...www.downhillbillies.org
Charter Members additional money is to help offset the start up costs.

Also, anyone wanting to pitch in and bring bottled water, a cooler, and other drinks would be appreciated. This development is currently being patrolled by the local police department so alcoholic beverages need to be kept hidden.
We are still working on after jam plans to give you the opportunity to partake in the fermented drink of your choice.
By the way, Troutman is a small town but they do have a drug dog.

Please drop me an e-mail if you need further information. My mobile number is
704 657 9531.

Look forward to seeing you at the jam. Bring your slalom boards, your carving boards, your downhill boards, or just bring yourself! It is going to be a blast.

DHB Jam And Website Update
On 3/21/2005 North Carolina Longboarder- DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Yo Bros and Sistas. Got back from Columbia last night, didn't get to ride any but drove right past exit 46. Had a board in my car but no helmet and my 12 year old daughter was with me...so no skating for Dad! I would have hated for her to have to have driven me to the hospital!

Here is what my boys at the Greenville NWS office are officially saying:
.FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH A 30 PERCENT
CHANCE OF SHOWERS. LOWS IN THE MID 40S. HIGHS IN THE MID 60S.

I will post daily updates but as far I can tell the DOWNHILL BILLIES JAM II IS ON!

Website Update: I have the basis site put together but I thought I would wait until we get the pictures from this weekend's jam to put it up on the net. Please, anyone who brings a camera this weekend, send me your pics, either digital via email, or drop them by my office to be scanned.
G-Flash: drop them to me in an email..I will put them in your section! Rock on bro! Send them to my work email marionkarr@execquestDOTcom

downhill billies d.holt NO SURGERY!!!
On 3/19/2005 dhb D.Holt wrote in from United States  (67.21.nnn.nnn)

Went to the dr. on fri. GOOD NEWS NO SURGERY , BAD NEWS NO SURGERY. I did not have a manescal tear just ripped the sh!t out of my MCL so there is really nothing he can do. Could be 5-6 months to get 100% but he thinks I will. It has felt the best today yet. I think I'll be back riding in about 6-8 weeks. Still I feel the need, the need to kill a hill at the jam so bad I can tast it. (NO WORRIES I'M NOT AS DUMB AS I LOOK) I will be there in full force promotions-shirt sells-laying down the digital video and stills-trying to keep my brother from another mother DANKDOWNHILLER from geting lost in woods. lenny that post was fuuunnnnny!!! but I'm trying to put my mask wearing, karaoke singing day's behind me.So if you could lets keep that stuff between us I'm still wanted three states. marion the eagle has landed , positive ghost rider , pattern is full message decoded. late.

Weather, fingers crossed, sunshine dance
On 3/19/2005 Lenny- Downhill Billies wrote in from United States  (68.76.nnn.nnn)

Gotta respect the sunshine dance! I was just on www.weather.com and the forecast for the Jam is now sunshine and upper 60s (about perfect). Again, that's way far off and we'll see what NCL's NWS hook-ups are saying, but I'm a bit more stoked on that forecast than the other!

Weather Update For DHB Jam
On 3/18/2005 North Carolina Longboarder-DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Here is what the Weather Channel's Website is saying about next Saturday's weather:

"Saturday: Periods of light rain. Highs in the upper 60s and lows in the mid 40s."

My boys at the National Weather Service will not release their long range forcast until tomorrow.

Keep putting out those positive weather vibes Gang! Think Sunshine!

Call outs
On 3/17/2005 Callin' y'all out! wrote in from United States  (68.252.nnn.nnn)

It seems like there's been a beef on about every other board I frequent on NCDSA this week; so I figure there needs to be one here! Here we go:

Dankdownhiller- You tapdance like Shirley Temple!

NCL- Rumor has it you don't floss after every meal.

D.Holt- You were seen singing "Sailing" at a karaoke bar while wearing an oversized diaper and a Richard Nixon mask!

Lenny- Your old vans smell so bad that your wife won't let them in the house, and you walk like an Egyptian.

All in good fun.

See you bros in a few days!

Later skaters,
LP- DHB

Back Up Plans For Jam
On 3/17/2005 North Carolina Longboarder- DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Lenny: I saw that weather report to and have called my boys at the National Weather Service to see what they are saying (My dad has worked for them part time for 30 years believe it or not) and they are going to call me back tomorrow with the updated forcast. Like you noted, long range forcasts are not really worth the paper or computer space they are written on. We need to wait until the first of next week to see what is going to happen. What we need to do is talk about a back up plan/dates. I will give you a shout this weekend.

DHB Jam II
On 3/16/2005 Lenny- Downhill Billies wrote in from United States  (68.252.nnn.nnn)

Only a week and a half until the DHB Jam II and I'm ssssssstoked!! I've also been able to log a lot of LB time in while coaching Junior High Track.

One small thing, though. www.weather.com is calling for 60% chance of precipitation for Statesvile on the day of the jam. a) That's a 40% chance it won't rain and; b) They normally are doing well to get it right a day in advance, much less 10, but are there any back up plans in the event of rain?

Voice Mail From Dank and Other DHB Stuff
On 3/15/2005 North Carolina Longboarder- DownHill Billies wrote in from United States  (166.82.nnn.nnn)

Dank Dude: Man, I take a day off from the net and what happens? Everyone gets their panties in a wad! What a freakin HOOT! LOL Man oh man.
No worries on the short voice mails...remember, my girls were little once and they used to be terrors. Saw Shannon today at La Dolce....sounded like a great time was had by all. He said Barry was rippin the pro bowl. Shannon has been spreading the word on the jam. I think we are definitely going to have a night skate that night downtown.
I will call you later. I am going to be out of the office today but will give you a shout on the mobile.

Later Dude...
