It's a Never Summer SL 168 I've found this board to be my weapon of choice. It has deep sidecut and just means it gets from edge to edge quicker so it's more responsive for a longboard. Yeah it's a longboard so it can haul ass and remain stable but turn quick. You can beat the crap outta the thing too. That one was new last year and as you can tell has seen a couple rocks. Don't worry about the core shots and just sand the rust off the edges before you go. I've had lots of miles on that one and shes gotta lots left. Get some medium bindings and have fun. That's the only kind of board I didn't see in your garage.

Don't Panic!
The original photo hangs in Kludyville. This is a photo of a photo and doesn't show the American flag at the top of the surfboard in the background. This copy doesn't show the bikers in the foregound pumping thier fists in the air. This is skateboarding history and needs to be seen. I hope you don't mind me putting this up Rick. peace

Zak I have to let you know sometime who first said that and that's some funny s#@! right there!! I would really like to get out to Lookout and rally the hill with you guys. There's quite a few van loads of racers on the way to your hill in May. So glad to see you guys putting on an event in Colorado and thanks for all the hard work. The Ditch Slap week and the Wild Bills back to back is a perfect way to show off some of the goods here and look forward to skating big mountains with packs of riders from all over the GLOOOOBE!
Only 2 runs on the Bobs, one Friday and one Saturday. We got some heat Friday and had to toss the Bobs outta the gondala window and then retrieve them for our descent. Saturday we brought up the Bobs under our jackets while shredding and returned later that evening to take a run. Saturday we bombed the hill in close proximity and led Will over a roller @ 40mph as we caught air simultaneously. Sick runs but no gps. You know when your flying on a piece of plastic through the air 25ft your going fast.

Hey Robbie Sooooooooo...... I pop into the forum for a quick check as to what yer' up to, and I read back a couple of days or so, and what offends my eye??..... No vote for you? When did you earn a felony rap? I thought the late, great D.B. got u straight in VAB? Or was it a CO thing? Anyway, it's cool ur getting around, getting some hill action, and makin' frinds and influencing folk like u do :) 2009 is gonna' be a good one. I feel it. All the best to you, Mate. All the time :) K

Hey Rob, Couple things:
First of all, come skate tomorrow. Lookout, 10:00 then on to a faster hill...
Second, I hear you are partially responsible for "MiniBike". I must thank you for going so easy on me. It could be a lot worse.

Hey Rob, More buttboard airs to come. They are quite a rush. Only done a couple so far. The snow looks nice in CO. But, back when we were in LA, here's a memorable shot of you and Billy at the heights of hell!

Rob , it took me all week to get back into Dad Mode bro. Breanne is still talking about that meal you made for us. Your left over are way better than my best meal. With age does come a killer laid back the night before race day. I only fell one time a cracked a Rib, maybe two but no worries I have done that before. Still cant get over how fast them kids where and playing with me like they where. God I would love to have the picture just before they took me into the 2 hard right and yes they took me and thats my hill. Mass talent in todays speed boarding. I miss you already Rob. Tryed hard to show you my life today in just a few hours bro. Boy I am paying for in now, ha !

what up rob! thanks for the birthday card and the $$munay$$. i'll try not to spend it all in one place (and i'll try not to get creeped out by the card...). it's been snowing an unusual amount here and it's starting to get annoying. i'm sure you've gotten used to it but it's a little much for me. here is a little video huey and i threw together during out last dry spell in portland. sounds like you had fun in california. i'm glad you didn't kick your wheel this time. take care and stay warm!
