Junior Eso contacted me recently asking a favour of you and I. There's a fella down there, Jorge, who wants to get a Rayne deck, and Everton as well. The mail takes over 6 weeks and costs alot to send a deck. Jorge and Junior were hoping that you could take two decks (one of them very light, the other quite light) down with you. When are you heading down?

COME ONE, COME ALL.. TO JONNY MILLER'S END OF THE YEAR BASH!
On 12/12/2007 Cat wrote in from United States  (67.117.nnn.nnn)

How would you like to buy a complete Gravity Mini Carve with Indy Trucks, Piaso Wheels and Khiro Hardwear for only $1.00?



For those attending Jonny Miller's race on Dec 16th, we will be holding a raffle for Kyndra Cox and her family. Raffle tickets will go on sale at 10:00 am in San Luis Obispo at the Arbors. Tickets will be $1.00 each, and you can purchase as many as you like. ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO THE COX FAMILY FOR HOSPITAL BILLS.

Others have stepped up to donate swag for the raffle. Chris Chaput donated wheels and Biltin Bearings. Isabelle Caudle, Norski, Jack & others have also stepped up with some great treasures to raffle off.

This event will be epic, so please don't miss it.
There is a definite rumor that Cliff Coleman, Jamie Hart, Lance "Danger" Folley and son, and more will be there.
There will be lots of surprises lurking around every corner!
Better put your dancin' shoes on, cause we're goin' to town!!
Even if you don't race, come on out and support a good cause.
Be there or be square.

Many thanks to the skateboard community for stepping up at times of need!

Below are details for the race from Jack's Skateboarder's Journal:

TimeShip calling Cliff....over?
On 12/10/2007 Joe Lehm wrote in from United States  (65.19.nnn.nnn)

TimeShip Headquarters has dispatched a care package to you, look for it at your Kensington address. You will find a pair of the Tracers in Black, a pair of the new WestSlide gloves to try out and /or share, a set of the Team Issue Delrin pucks that you have been patiently waiting for and some TSR Maryhill DVD's for you and your crew.

Let me know how the WestSlides hold up to your furious testing techniques, and if you think you would like to have some on hand for future clinics. They are a scaled down glove for free style sliders and free riders under like 30 mph. We actually have some in Xtra Small too.

Ditch Slap '08?
