Ron! How are you doing, man? I'm really sorry to miss the DHB race but I'll do whatever I can to be there next year and race with you again. My qualifying runs with you at The Farm are among my best memories ever.

And thanks for the Axe II pics.

Mig,

Sorry you aren't going to make it to NC for the DHB race. It's going to be a good race, and I won't have to run the Giant Slalom on my short AXE this time. Hey, see those yellow wheels... I got that idea from you Mig.

Hey - saw your video recently of you guys riding, you were flying (on the yellow wheels). You can check out your runs from the farm at http://www.georgiaslalom.com and click on The Farm link, if you had not already seen it. There is video of you and me racing qualifing.

All the best Mig!

Ron

Nice video Ron. Damm Dave Pirniac has style. That Joe I fellow has gotten faster. My black GS Axe should be arriving soon. Thanks Maria. Your Amigo Eddy Texas Outlaws on the mend.

Chris -

The concave is about 1/2 inch deep on the Axe II. What I mean if if you put a straight edge across the board at the concave section, and measure in the middle, you'll get the 1/2 half inch.

perfect, exactly what I wanted two know. Is the concave linear or curved? I ask cause the one I stepped on had a linear concave, and felt beautiful.
