After testing out one of our pre-production decks, Mike Duquette is joining Team Gecko. I think his quote was 'Perfect, can't imagine how it could be any better!'...
We are happy to welcome one of the top Amateurs in the World onto our Team and hope that both he and our decks will find themselves on many podiums for years to come!

The Gecko Team now consists of:


Paul Kellerher-UK

Louis Selby-UK

Mike "The Duque" Duquette-USA

Martin Drayton-Trinidad & Tobago

Pics soon!

Martin.

Cool, but the one she was riding was the old 'Street/Slalom' model and about 2 1/2 years old...the new decks make it look like a dinosaur and are 2/3rds of the weight!
In the pic below, by way of shape comparison are (L to R):

Paul Price's Roadster, my Gecko and the Street Slalom.
Hopefully you'll see one of the new ones in Paris under the feet of Louis Selby!
