"Hey Justin, You and The Duque just keep chasing girls and quit picking on us old guys at the races !"

Better yet, just keep picking on the old girls and chasing even older guys at the races! Not sure you'd know what to do if you caught either?!

I want to Thank you guys for doing what you do. I really like my Pool board I had a chance to pick out of the prize pool in Texas.

After looking at it closely, It will rest with some of my other prizes. It looks like 'll be getting another one in the future to ride. I thought I'd be buying one from the moment you posted the pics of them.

Some things never change,EH!

Oh and Tod, your hat is put asside had I brought it to the race site Cfav would have brought it to you.

i know i can't wait to get my Sled Zepplin! The snow and ice are all finally gone! A bad rain storm has just washed the streets clean, and the knee is almost all better. Time to lay down some hand plants, big airs, and slash some cones. Looks like the Duke and I have got some practicing to do!

Tod Oles · Post by **Tod Oles** » Sun Mar 04, 2007 6:12 pm

Dave....GOT KICK ?????.......Sled Zepplin... It's instock and ready to rock!!!!

Finally got to spend some quality time on my Midnight SpeXial !! It's magic!! I have it set up on the shorter wheel base, and was a bit weary of the remaining cinders on the street ..It holds the road Xtremely well, even when I got in a bit of unwanted debris, It was very controlable and let me feel exactly what was going on under my feet!! Hat off to the Chris'
You guys put just the right amount of concave,camber and flex in this amazing deck!! Can't wait to try it out on the longer wheel base !!

And what perfect timing!! After some sub zero days, we're up to 50! I'm off!!!!!

I sit here in front of the window fan, drinking tea, smoking a cigar, no heat, no air, just enjoying the warm winter breeze.

I laugh. I tell you, I laugh.

Not only are my bearings STILL frozen but my cat is also frozen to my Mollica deck. In this weather any 74a wheel is as good as a 98a...
