Premium Member Comment by Fitz on June 22, 2011 at 18:51: use randals if you got them Sean. 150 or 180 wide.

55* front 35* rear. no wedging needed. put a stack of risers under to stop wheelbite and you're in business. Doesn't really matter how high you go cause footbraking not required.

Premium Member Comment by Marek on June 22, 2011 at 16:19: Good thinking Haggy. If we use the full SGS course then each run takes 1 min (well takes me 1 min). So even with a doz or so riders we could run out of time for everyone to get a few runs. 11am it is and knowing Mountain Mic he'll be there even earlier!

Premium Member Comment by nathan on June 22, 2011 at 14:29: go 15 front 10 dewedge back as a starting point

Premium Member Comment by sean meaney on June 22, 2011 at 14:09: hey what is the go with tracker wedgeing, i have a BDS/CDS deck running trackers, the back is flat and the front has about 7 (maybe more) with orange khiro bitch bushings in it, is it worth going for abit more angle in the board? IE dewedge the back more and add a few more degree's to the front

Premium Member Comment by haggy on June 22, 2011 at 13:38: I think we should kick it off earlier... it gets dark early these days!

how about 11?

Premium Member Comment by Marek on June 21, 2011 at 18:45: I've put it up as an event, 1pm sound right or earlier?

I guess if we follow the Downhill ranking format then we need 1 month noticeto count? Not that we have to follow the downhill format.

Premium Member Comment by haggy on June 20, 2011 at 22:13: Sounds like a goer! Double-header weekend?! Robtech, let's make it an excursion... I'll cook spag bol and bring my mega-sized coffee plungers!

Bugs - can we include results from this in the rankings?

Premium Member Comment by nathan on June 20, 2011 at 13:25: Its been a while since my last church attendence! My gnarpark efforts the other night suggest some rustiness of technique which may require an offering at church.

the 17th is the day after my b'day so i think the planets might be aligning for a visit with the BMB bretheren, we'll see.

Premium Member Comment by Marek on June 20, 2011 at 13:07: Mick I think that is an offer we can't refuse for the next Church Session on the 17th of July. We can do a Sutherland/Allawah sess in early August maybee.

So any objections to pumpstation on the 17th?

If not i'll put it up as an event later today.

Hey Conrad Junk in the trunk sounds good. I've never seen on in the flesh though. Very wide with a mellow kick I've read. If you want a cheap starter board get a cheap park board, take the nose off with a jigsaw and redrill the mounting hole for a longer wheelbase. You'll get plenty of help here with setup, wheelbase wedging etc. For SGS at pumpstation just bring your downhill board.
