I meant allowing them to demo the gear first- like have stuff available at demos or contests.

JG, I erased a post that I put up regarding an idea I had for addressing your goal here. But nobody responded so I killed it.

Think, NetFlix!!

We should talk.

Vlad, I am honored that you would even think to say hello to me. I feel like a chic seeing Elvis for the first time!!

2004 Goals:

1) To Practice regulary.
2) To become a viable threat to somebody over the age of 15.
3) To get my tight deck (Roe PS Crossfire) and GS deck (ICK Carrera) dialed in.
4) To build enough endurance to pump for at least 1 mile around the track without stopping.
5) To introduce at least 3 people to slalom skateboarding.

2003 goals-

1. To slalom in the far east and infect them with the slalom bug.

2. To make a wheel that I really enjoy riding.

3. To learn to Ollie- and get sponsored. Oops typo .......to learn with Ollie (Gelfand) and get him sponsored.

Well 2 out of three ain't bad.

2004 Goals

1. Get local city sports media interested in our racing. Hopefully have that as a model for others to copy.
2. Involve Highschool snowboard racers with skateboard slalom.
3. Introduce slalom skateboarding to other sports enthusiasts by cross marketing at their competitions.
4.Make it easier for skaters to select gear without having to purchase it first.
