Owen

sweet as, hopefully it doesn't rain

I had an invite from Henry King. left my number 0411 869 453. let me know if your skating tonight as i would like to come.

Owen,

how do you like your trucks (tight, loose, somewhere in between)? I have set up a set of trucks for a customer with a combination of red and dark orange, but haven't actually ridden Kooky's so am unsure how they will react to the bushings. What are you using in them now and how are they for you?

Cheers

Ado

Owen,

I am guessing you are doing some pretty mellow hills on those bushings as they are quite soft (especially in the front). If you want more carve in the front I'd suggest running the Reflex Lemon barrels in the front and Orange or Orange plus in the back.

If you want something stiffer I'd go with Orange plus in front and Red in the rear which will be very stable.

Cheers

Ado

discovery drive tomorrow?
sunday sesh?

Owen,

are these the new clear red and yellow Randal bushings or the old solid colour ones? The new clear ones are much softer than the old ones and I'd be surprised if anyone got a 92 on the new soft bushings.

If you like the barrels and those sorts of duro's I'd look at the Reflex Orange/orange + in front and the stiffer orange +/red in the rear. It is very uncommon for a rider to have softer bushings in the rear of a dh board as you want the front to steer and the rear to follow. You don't want the back outturning the front or it is like trying to ride down a hill in a forklift!

Cheers

browen, how was your skate?

Hey dude, hows things?

Yea The Torso and legs (green) is roo, the sleeves (yellow) are cow.
Nick Duffield is experimenting with making them and this was a trial pair from him.

He isnt ready to be making them in large quantaties at the moment but maybe let him know your interested and if he workd out all the kinks in the operation he could probably help you out.

First crashes in them today, they work well.

Hmm, I will try, i think I have henrys number so Ill text him if I can make it.
I have school on friday and I live in belconnen, so omallys a bit out of the way, but I really want to...
Ill try my hardest, thanks!

Hey mate!
I was planning to come tonight, but I couldent get hold of henry so I didnt know where to goooo.
Gahhh.
And then some cop pulled me over for cruisng along belconnen way.
Bad day for skating.

First 3D pic of you now online, man! Overall the results of the shoot were mixed cause I didn't know the action was so fast.

I will be going to Canberra in the next few weeks (date to be inked in). If you have a session while I am there hope we can catch up and shoot some pics (moving and still).

dude i think these are the gloves we were trying to find, they look a lot similar. and cost like $35

Joe Rocket Jordan Gloves L/XL

Well how awesome am I then. If they are any good I will get some of my own.

Yeah I checked it out the other day, didnt see trucks or wheels cause I only popped in but the evo and dervish are pretty sweet, huge step up from what they used to be stocking.

hey man, what are your day's off next week? I'm thinking a trip to visit the sydney lads.....

aha a pseudonym nice tactic, go in as the unknown and expose yourself in the later rounds

how's your trip man?

nah no bales bro just bale bags

dude wheres the race hill at?

cool man can u give me a call when u have the chance? im gonna come but i wont be racing, still not up to scratch on the board yet. so instead i'll help out with the running of the show so you guys can get more runs in and spend more time skating. its hard to host an event and try to skate in it too!

Hey Owen, I'm actually going to be heading down south on the 25th of march for Jacko's Jam. Thats what everyone was talking about on Kams gnar video I think......I would of loved to come to the race bro. But have a good time anyway.

hey man so I see that you plan on coming to my race, I also notice that you are a luger mostly, do you do any standup? as the racing will be stand up only but you are more then welcome to come free ride with us.

hey Owen, I was thinking of coming by to check it out cos I live nearby and know that road. Im playing with motorbikes all day saturday and I'll probably too stuffed to ride. Hope that's cool. If I make it I'm happy to volunteer as a driver. Cool, seeya

just order something and we'll take the $100 off the price

dude, pm me your bank details, i'll hook you up

hey owen! yeah there will definitely be people skating during the week. i'll be in tassie on friday but we could probably arrange something for thursday? gimme a text/ring whenever 0431156163

see ya then

Hi Owen. There aren't usually any longboard sessions wednesday and thursday but there might be 1 or 2 people who'll reply your post in the Melbourne Sessions group. if you'll be around Friday night, we could pull something together. I know G and ching won't be around cuz they're goin to that slide race at tassie. Let me know your friday night plans. Will you need to borrow a board?

Aight man. I might bring a friend along as well. He longboards as well.
I'll just scab a board off someone who's not skating much aye?
See you in either civic or o'malley. Cheers man
Sam

Dude I would love one! Could you possibly get two? Also has this got a reflctive visor.

Cheers Bro, means a lot!

Hey mate, I will add up the prices. There will be a wait, but I will order the trucks in ASAP, they are on back order. Email me on voodoolongboards@me.com with your email address and exactly what you want and I'll be able to get back to you ASAP. Cheers

Haha, as much as I like making people happy, I'm sad to say that I won't trade anything for my baby V. I've had my heart set on her since I saw the protos come out. I'll let you know how she rides ^_^
