    ok i am straight out asking for an expression of interest in anyone who is keen to help put on a legitimate race at arthours seat. This is a HUGE project to undertake, but how sick would it be to have an event on a hill like that?
  • Callum O'callaghan-daft

    yo, newtons vets

  • Gilbert

    Here's a question, why aren't there 3 degree wedges? Anyone care to make me a couple :)

  • Premium Member

    sean meaney

    3 degrees isnt much gilbert, if you can get someone to do the maths (there is a formula for this, hit up a year 12) you should be able to do it the cheapo way and cut 1/3 of a standard height flat riser appart and then put it on your board to give you the angle your after
  • Gilbert

    yes i know that's an option, but i dont like the idea of my baseplate sitting on such a small area of contact when you do it the cheapo way.

  • Premium Member

    sean meaney

    i have done some the cheapo way, i ran a soft flat thats very thin under it and it seemed to be fine, it sorta compressed on the angle and i got more contact
  • stephen.mhsrider

    colby, your out that way, have you checked out deans marsh road and falls road in lorne? there is also a sweet street that escapes my name is kinda near pizza pizza
  • Sam Humphrey

    cheers colby
  • Colby

    Deans marsh rd is fairly busy, especially on the weekends, and fair few crazy drivers, not a bad surface from memory. Hit it up in the early morning (ie. 8am) or late evening (8pm) and it might be ok. Sick road if you are brave enough. Haven't driven that way in a while, might check it out before christmas in time for summer break.

    i have ridden deans marsh road a few times, same with falls, its gnarly as fuck hahaha.

    over summer we will be having a big ride with all the crew out that way, i will be in/near lorne after x-mas for a while same with a few other riders so we are thinking we will have a big sesh in lorne
