Melbourne Sessions!

those are very yummy wheels

cool, cre8ive sk8? (bought my board from him so) will they slide like the ones i have now? was that what you were riding ching?....hehe they made funny sounds

They won't be as smooth. Maybe you should try the freerides. 83a orangatang durians. I could bring them to our next sesh and u can try them out

hey callum, i can give you my older gen 50degree randals for $45, i think they'll work much better than 42degree on your dh race, thing is that they don't have kingpins in them so you'll have to use the kingpins that came with your force trucks, is that alright? and i'll toss in a bunch of khiro and stock randal bushings in as well (i got lots of them lying around). if you want, i've got a set of 93a venom barrels that i'd let go for $5

Or you could get race formulas (the yellow wheels that i were using)

i was using the 80A wheels. definitely dont slide as well as yours. and i like those funny noises. its so noisy it makes me feel like im putting alot of effort into my slides :)

makes u sound like ur farting as u slide

awsome man 50$ and ill take as many bushingsas you got so i can play around :-)
do you recon ill need to wedge them at all?
wheres the best place to find wheel's? you dont like the flys much do you fendy?

gilbert, i dont think you can remove the force kingpin, it is abit short anyway. I would go by some 2.5" kingpins online or at your local skate shop

with 50degree plates you wont need to wedge anything, your board does that for you just fine. you can get wheels from ado at cre8ive skate or boardshop.com.au

i love the flies for speed but not sliding. It's easier to slide offset wheels compared to centre set but the good thing bout the flies is that u can flip it around if it starts coning which will definitely happen with the way you bend your trucks haha. Just get wheels from hopkin or ado.

What's the GO for Sat am sesh hmmmm?

another session at chingslide park? :) looks like rain hopefully weather will change.

cool well next skate i will bring along some money... ill leave the wheels for a bit and try out some, got to admit i like the speed demons but they are starting to look like sphears...

chingslide would be good

i would like to stay away from that place for a while. I'm getting pretty bad reactions from those bug bites... The inflammation is spreading

oh hamish, if you bring the madrid i want to try injecting glue and press/clamping the nose before cuting it...chingslide ay?

fendy you might need areoguard next time, i am fine after those little bites, still got abit of an itch but man up and deal with it

sean you havent see his arms, looks pretty nasty, im ok to but wouldent want to be fendy

yeah, fair enough

Yeah i noticed a few bites today too, poor fendy..

hmm ... no bites.. thanks fendy for being tastier :p

oh yeah.. i wanna get brake soles... someone mentioned they wanted to order some as well..?

lets do the votes for this saturday.
I vote Ching's slide park

Mountain Highway.

When I have time, i'm gonna go check out Clark's Rubber. If they have sheets of compress rubber, i'll buy a big sheet and sell to u guys ;)
Oscar, i wanna do sean's balls as well but we needa rent a car for dat

tiresole's seem prtty good, and they look cool :-)

While i m doing nothing in class...my dad got a little over enthusiastic about a year ago and bought 5, 1981 300 td merc wagons origanaly the plan was to use them for his company but never happend, one he's useing as a bash rally car, my brother bought one and I have one, ones a parts car but there's one more, I had a quick chat to him this morning about useoing it as a taxi car, its got 8 seats, its desal, reliable and best of all they were cheap! Were going to cheack it out over the next week to see what needs doing on it but asumeing that it's not much would we all be intersted in useing to to ferry people? We'd have to work a system to cover fuel and matnence cost's but it's better then renting...
Just a thought, should have more detail latter
Btw who can drive in the group anyway?

me and g can drive but from the sound of it its manual transmission so safer to just let g drive :) i'd be more than happy to chip in for fuel and stuff when we use it.

sorry forgot to say, it auto too...

that's perfect, and yeah we'll definitely work out the cost of fuel and maintenance if we were to use it.

fendy: yeah? let me know how much per sheet. =]

saturday: yeah i'm up for it!

Callum your showing inititive beyond your years.
I'm happy to pore a bit of coin in "8 seats people".
Yes callum I have a full manual licence.
Legaly my troopy can only seat 3.

ok well as far as i know the only mechanical issue is to do with glow pulg's probably not much of an issue, will trap the old man down this by this weekend and do a full rundown and see what needs to be done to make it safe and roadworthy..... sorry to keep bounceing back to this but ado at crative skate suggested bigzig's over o-tangs, saying that o-tangs just dont last...any back up on this becouse i have a new found atraction to destroying wheels! and i dont really want to be spending 100 on wheels to often....

yeah compared to the bigzigs, otangs wear out fast. especially if you're gonna be sliding them alot (which you do!).

:-) i like slide! hehehe

bigzigs dont' really slide as well as otangs. They're known for their grip

SECTOR NINE RACE FORMULAS!!!

OK!!! ill check em out! lol, they the yellow ones?
where did you get them and for how much?

hahah yup the yellow ones. You can find them in the quicksilver shop on swanston street in the city for about 90.

big zigs slide, trust me on that, its hard to get them to but once you get them out i find it hard to get them back under myself. you might want to think about the harder ones if your going to slide though

bloody hell iv never seen such a mixed review...not compleatly convinced yet, what duro and size do you ride stephen?


http://www.silverfishlongboarding.com/forum/longboard-skateboarding-wheels-bearings/69461-sector-9-race-formula-69mm-74mm.html

i ride 76mm and 78A but the higher duros like 80A and 82A would probably last longer

are we going flinders next sunday? =]

Yeah im down for flinders.

saturday, saturday, saturday, whats the call?

too bad Dale. Keep on at it! Maybe you will make the next dervish. You never know :)

i actually meant the dervish's popularity, not the deck itself.

Calum:
Daddies has those sector 9 race formulas on special =] next week
