Sure, perhaps many of us need to lose weight....I just feel if the board is as light as can be, but retains robustness, and that unquantifiable 'feel' then that has to be good. Particularly in a push start. I'm sure Donalds Pavels have the 'feel'. And an all out competition for lightness is useless ...

The deck construction is VERY strong. It was used in anger at Pump Station in San Diego, and stood on by Ritchie Carrasco without wheels to test for breking point...it didnt break.

rode a Pocket Pistol foam core Smokestack when I won the world tight am divison at Morro Bay. I find the foam cores have just the right amount of 'snap'. The wood top sheet seems to give a lovely ride. The foam wedgies are a nice solution to concave, as adding concave adds stiffness, but a foam conc...

As someone who enjoys tight slalom, partly because I can thrash the lederhosen off Mr Eggers at it, I dont mind if its on a hill or flat. On the flat, if your good, you'll come out faster than you went in. (A bit like french kissing Mr Eggers I'd imagine....not that I want to imagine it.....) How ab...

A European skater would be likely to leave earlier in the week to reduce ...

Its nice to start the year disagreeing with Hans again. If a cone is out it does two things.

I have yet to see any valid reason why not one UK race is given Prime status.
I'm sure you will have fun racing in the UK. Fact is we have to go to French races for points, on courses that aren't fun.
