Eloura Gloves
On 2/1/2002 vexmex wrote in from (64.12.nnn.nnn)

HAs anyone tried the Eloura gloves in the winter issue of longboarding international? if so... How do they slide?, hold up? is the stiching good? do the slide pads stay on? how fast do they wear down?... right now I have home made work gloves with cutting boards ( shaped ergonomicly of course) shoo gooed on, and I am looking for some thing new!

Does anyone have any pictures of the Z-Skins being used for protection?

I'd like to see how people are using Z-Skins on their RIII's.

Visors for wege helmets
On 1/29/2002 Steve Pearl wrote in from (152.163.nnn.nnn)

We have in stock visors for both the SnowRider or Racer's Edge helmets. They have "Venturi Flow Thru" to minimize fogging. They are available in both clear and tinted.

What is the name of the tape-like product that people are putting on the bottom of their LY RIIIs and LYDHs to protect their sway backs from belly lacerations?

So they can be mounted through the screws on the trucks? Also, what brand skyhooks have you got? are the freebord one's the same as the others?

Strange Gullwing Pheonix

Simon,

Alvin has one of those strange Pheonix on his page. He has only one, on a page with 4 of them. Maybe this is the missing one of the pair.
His page is www.kickturn.com

gullwing phoenix
On 1/14/2002 BoBo wrote in from (151.196.nnn.nnn)

I got one of those when I bought a set off of Steven Church a while back Simon. It measures the same as standard Phoenix trucks but looks different. I sold em to Hugh though. But i guess they might be on the rarer side than the usual ones.

Wonder why they did it? I think it was an answer to wheel space problems. Take a look and you'll see what I mean.

motor
On 1/13/2002 roger wrote in from (66.51.nnn.nnn)

Drue,

There is a C and H Surplus near where I live, they have lots of cheap motors and sell online. Here is a quick search results for d c motors. It is all surplus, so selection is inconsistent, but prices can be good.

Big project you are taking on, batteries, control circuitry, drive train... the motor is the easy part.

If you really want to get trick, do some research into "regenerative braking". It's a method of recapturing the braking energy to recharge the batteries rather than having it wasted in the form of heat. Some golf carts use it and I would expect all high performance electric cars to use it as well. Would be curious if circuitry for it is available off-the-self yet.

Cool Neon
On 1/11/2002 Tony Healy wrote in from (32.100.nnn.nnn)

Nice folks who skate, inline at least. Might skate on boards too. They have a half pipe in their living room, and have skateboarders over, so don't write them off just yet.

[Not sure if this is the same stuff as Neon Wire Technologies, but Cool Neon's products are more focused on the rave crowd rather than motorized things.]
