He always seemed a bit paranoid that he was annoying people with long posts, never heard anyone complain though.

One suggestion for location is the bike path next to the freeway in Naremburn.  Under cover too so perfect for this awesome weather we've had.

Craig hooked himself up with some slalomers on ISSA. I guess he goes to them now of all his info. Haven't had contact with him for a couple of months now.

Yeah Craig was saying that some slalomers run the front truck higher so that when going down a hill they simulate standing on a flatter surface in relation the the road grad.

Jesus who put a bomb under the slalom forum, my in box has exploded today! Excellent stuff!! Yeah second that there is no stupid question in slalom. This is flame free geek friendly zone!

What happened to Craig? I hate it when a prolific poster deletes their account leaves holes everywhere.

There must be cool little bike paths or somehing on the north shore where we could have a casual sees. Someone should just call it. I'll be there!

On the height topic, my back truck sits slightly lower. Not on purpose either. More by default. Low angle baseplates and kicktail boards just seem to set the axles that way. It never resulted in a wheelbite issue because I crank the bushes very hard so I didn't need to change it.

Yeah keep posting them adam, share the knowledge. Much more interesting than the endless: what wheel should I buy.
earlier in this thread craig asked about front/rear height, all his posts are gone so it won't make sense but the conclusion was to have a higher front truck. Try and let us know!
I'm keen for a beginners sesh. How about late march? Is there anywhere kind of central we could do it? The young guys are all attached to hopkin so something near there might get a few of them along.
