    for GS i would say the randals, the bennetts are really turny, and by that i mean REALLY turny... and a bit of a bitch to set up properly. the standard bottom bushings is alot taller than any normal bushing, so if you want to replace it you have to get specially made bushings, or put two conical bushings in (like an hourglass) or just put in a bunch of washers to fill in the gaps...
    i would suggest going out to do some slalom practice first before trying to race slalom, its really easy and will make things alot more fun for when you come to townsville. go grab a bunch of cheap flower pots from bunnings and some chalk and go mark out a course with 7ft straight cones and 10ft offsets along a nice and mellow hill, and keep tweaking the course so you get it perfect, then make the cones tighter and tighter and go faster and faster

  • Fish

    dunno man, plenty on, probably gonna hit west beach for a park skate instead.
  • Fish

    Yeah bro, i left a request. If I don't see you on the weekend, hope the run goes well and it's not too hot. Skated west beach last night and the halfpipe was still too hot to touch even after 9. End of the world type weather much?

    You want to get the bottom of the luge as low as possible so it will depend on the thickness of the channel you are using and what trucks you are using too. Send me some sketches of what you are building and i'll take a look. Aim for a wheelbase of around 110-120mm and put the front truck as close to your ass as possible.

  • Jonty

    Hey, what r ya doing on this weekend? Am I right that people are going to BHC coz Dani is over? Thinking of going to that? We should catch up for a skate, ayden can come, or if there's gonna be a big gathering at BHC I'll see you then.
  • Jonty

  • nedd0

  • nedd0

  • Premium Member

    Jacko

    Na, Dion (dougie) wants one I reckon. He's just gone to Africa for three weeks and is in debt because of it haha. So I'm not sure when he's getting one

  • Premium Member

    Oliver Dowie

    not sure about this weekend. I just got my glyde! =D friggin stoked! But i also just got my package from hopkin (which has the griptape) and it's only 50 cm long :'( when i ordered it i thought it was in inches haha. So I'll have to stretch it or something. Not so stoked haha. I may come out for a roll with you guys
  • nedd0

    "This seems to be the place to post this;
    I have a set of 56mm Slide A's that have been ridden on once and slid about 6 or 7 times. I'm particularly looking for trades (and will add cash) but money will do fine. I can chuck in a set of bones reds as well."
    how much for the reds and the slide a's? (cash)
  • nedd0

    well its my brother that would be buying them so i'll see with him...
  • nedd0

    he says too expensive. i think he has found some pretty cheap ones somewhere.
  • Katherine Blair

    hey,
    no problem :)

    yeah might see you around sometime,
    have a good one.
  • nedd0

    yeah nah dude its cool.

  • Premium Member

    Dani

    Hey there my incredibly tall friend. Hows things??
    Yea I love the glide man but I have only really been using it for free riding purposes. I havent got it set for downhill so havent gone over 60 on it I dont reckon. Tis an awesome board though, massively wide platfor so heaps of room for the feet to move around. Good concave and the little wing at the back is great for foot braking as you can lock your heel into place and your foot cant move around the place.
  • leighgriffiths

    done. its on the front page of "Taking The EOTH".

    Hey i saw that video of yours with the scorpion cam. How did u make your homemade deck? Like what materials did you use and where did you get them?

  • Premium Member

    Alex Groth

    Does the board flex or does the fiberglass really stiffen it up?
  • Joe

    Hey Mate was just wondering if you will be going to bathurst this yeah hoping for some more people under 18 haha?
  • Joe

    Ok dude yep for sure i live about an hour from kenilworth there is a nice road up there with some sweeping corners probley only like 1km long but.
    Will have to get in contact when it comes closer, but theres no public transport out that way.
  • Andrew G
