Jonas Wikström - Sweden

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Please welcome Jonas "Yoda" Wikström as a new member to our community.

Jonas was one of those I was training hard to beat back in 1980.

I haven't seen or raced Jonas for the last 15 years or so, but I'm very pleased to see him back again.

At the last couple of skateboard events I saw Jonas he was carrying high-end video (the TV Pro stuff) and photo equipment so let us start dreaming that he can contribute something within this domain to our community.

More importantly we look forward to seeing him on the race track to strengthen the Swedish team in up coming contests!

Does he want to sell me those magnesium midtracks? Looking forward to more racing Swedes.

Just saw that Jonas had his picture on the editorial page of Slalom! no 2.

Slalom! no 2, page 2

Pretty aggressive style.

...and John, no he probably doesn't want to sell his magnesium trucks. Those are collectors items nowadays...
