I only need one 5" Bennett truck.

Color is not an issue.

PM me or e-mail me at bobbaltimore@gmail.com

Bob

Bob Frias

Ah my friend. I have far too many old boards... I have a well rounded collection of late 70's gear, heavy on Fibreflex and Sims. I was buying this stuff before it went BOOM on eBay some years back. While most of the good stuff always got good prices, some of it slipped under the radar. I got some Bu...

It's Official, Floyd is off his Rockah! I'm in as long as I get to keep my NE accent. If I have to lose it I'll only switch it to Balmer/Dundalk MD speak.... You don't want that.......

Bob Frias

WOW! I didn't even know I had a time!

Not bad for 2 runs on a course i never rode I guess.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Cat is very cool, and in the tradition of every drummer I've either jammed with or met, she is just a little batshit crazy like them all.

Bob Frias

I know I speak for Ron when I say that the 5 hour ride to Joisey was worth it. Didn't get many runs but it was good to see our young Noah and My how Nick has grown! Good to put faces to names like Glenn Chapman and Fatboy among others. I'm ready for another session already. That place is IDEAL! BoBo

Bob Frias

I'll be there no worries Noah. I woulda come to see you pass a 50 spot. NOW, I hope it pisses down so I get that pie in the crank I was promised. And yes, i am serious about getting back to skating. I was there for the re-awakening of Slalom, which I chronicled in Concrete Wave Vol 1 #4 [dig em out ...

Bob Frias

You bet Heinle?

I'da shown up just so he'd owe you the 50 spot.

C-Ya in Paramus!!!!!!!!!!!!!

B

Bob Frias

I hat to do it but it must be said.

What's the weather going to be like?

Looks good here in Balmer, but then we aint skatin here.

Looks like it's me and Ron showing up to ride.

My bro Scott has a previous engagement.

One nOob, one not so nOobish [me]

Bob Frias

I'll leave the fiddle home and stick to skating.

Last thing I need is to hassled for skating AGAIN!

Bob Frias

I almost whipped out the "what exit" thing but thought better. Now I regret not having done so. I may be only able to get 1 power inverter. I'm not sure it could power 2 amps. perhaps it could...... I'll have to work on that one. I told my brother it was this weekend, then he tells me it's next week...

Bob Frias

Got my Extracks. Thanks Rick S

Bob

Bob Frias

Looks like I'm bringing my brother and a friend up from Balmer to share the stoke.

We'll have about 6 boards with us.

I'll bring 35 cones as well.

Bob Frias

l\Looking forward to meeting some of the Joisy crew. My New England accent shouldn't stick out like it does here in Balmer.

Hey Joe. If I can get a power inverter from work I'll bringthe Peavy Vypyr 30W practice amp I just bought and a vintage Gibson. Frontman can jam away if he likes.

Bob

Bob Frias

Will be most fun then.

B

Bob Frias

I was coming fer sher. NOW, to get beat by you?

Perhaps I mis-read the initial post. Doesn't seem to be a race. But then, what's to stop a friendly one eh?

I'll race you on a "78" Turner just for giggles.

Bring sumptin quick.

Oh Joy!

B

Bob Frias

I'm sooooo there!

"Break into the rect..........................."?

No... Tooo easy..

I'm hitting most events on the Right Coast this Spring/Summer.

Will be good to meet many of ya'll....

Joe, you goin?

Bob F

Bob Frias

I'll trade 2 new Bennetts for just 1 Tracker Extrack. A pair is just as good. Must be cosmetically good as well as structurally good. I like my gear to look as good as it performs.

SOMEONE????????

Bob

The Bennetts are black, 4. somethings....

Bob Frias

So................

I'll be racing this year. Got the itch like never before and the injury Monkey well off my back.

Let's do this!!!

Bob Frias

I'm taking offers for this nice set-up. Here's what I got. 1 Turner TTC. Like new truck with custom bushings. Yellow Bones on top and a Sure Grip yellow on the bottom. Speed rings and wedge. 1 small pivot Tracker Fultrack. The earliest Fultrack available just about. Bones blue top bushing and TK-05 ...

70's Santa Cruz Hutson epoxy cutback for sale. I bought this off of Attilla during the summer. It's signed by all the skaters at the first Morro Bay championships. Deck has been clear coated to prtect the sigs but is starting to crack [the clearcoat]. Deck is otherwise MINT. e-mail for pix. I'll tra...

Bob Frias

Avalons....

Nuff said...

No wait a sec, not enough said.

They increased the speed and daring of racing this season. Perhaps the best wheels I've ever ridden this side of red C-70's.

Bob Frias

Have a great time partying my bro's. I'll be there in spirit.

I'm gonna get a skin head one day just to avoid the hair jokes.

Yeah... as if....

Bob Frias

Just a quick "Hey" to my friends in the DC/Baltimore area.

Thanks for the memories guys and I'll see you this coming season. This time I'll be the visiting team.

Bob

Bob Frias

The year is 200 and I got my first slalom deck. I had ridden vert all my life and would have laughed at slalom in 78. M<y first deck was a Fibreflex that was waaaaay to soft for me. I then graduated to a Fibreflex Response with Fultracks and OJ's. Nirvana hit when I got Turner cut-away. From then on...

Bob Frias

Just feed it a steady diet of Cambrias and cones and it will grow to be a strong cut-away Jani.

I have a penchant for cut-aways so I feed mine Kryps by the bucket full. But if you want it to be a Fulnose you need to feed it RT-X's and wedges.

Feed her well bro.

Bob

Bob Frias

Here are my 2 favorite Turners these days. The set-ups are a bit different and definitely feel different due to wheelbase and flex. First up is my early 90's 2tone cut-away med/stiff. Small pivot Fultrack up front weged out. Small pivot offset on the back wedged forward. This board rides like it's o...

Bob Frias

I think that Chaput is going to roll out some wedges and cushions during the winter months. I'm not saying count on it but knowing Chaput it's almost a sure thing. I have totally nailed the bushing thing for my riding style and it did take a while before I got it just right, but there are decent cus...

Bob Frias

I knew there was a logical explanation for it.

Thanks Pete

"The devil is in the details."

Bob Frias

That is a fair reply Adam.

Let's see what meastro Verdone says.

I have my doubts that he is a devil worshiper and I know you don't imply such thinking. But what is the significance is a good question indeed.

Bob Frias

I for one have no prob with the 666 thing. It is just a number until YOU attach significance to it.

If it stops you from buying the truck I can only chuckle a bit.

Bob Frias

Like how much TK?

I'm gonna get a set no matter wehat but thought I'd prepare my wallet first.

Bob Frias

Those are great slalom trucks Leonardo. ACS 650's make good all around trucks but turn very sharply and that is escpecially good in slalom as you know. Wedge the back with that fat side to the back and wedge the front truck with the fat side back as well. You'll have a stable fast turning board. Hop...

Bob Frias

I had this made bt my good bro and local DC Crew guy Geezer-X. He's a slalom racer/machinist and was making offsets for the new batch of trucks when the thought hit me "Why not take my fave truck and make it an offset?" I made the deal and Geez went to work. What I got back is a work of art as well ...

Bob Frias

I'm using the yellows HG.

I didn't do a tooth check on em so I'm glad you wrote the duros out.

Just so happens I am using the yellows and they seem great.

I'll be giving em all a fair shot soon enough though.

Thanks HG.

Bob Frias

This may be one of only a few Henry. I am lucky to have it. It rides like a dream and is a Med/Stiff flex. I now have Extracks and Avalons on it. I'm having one of the Extrack hangers made into an offset by Geezer-X. I'll bet this thing will be the shit when I'm done.
