ICK website

Post by Henry Julier » Sun Mar 02, 2003 6:50 pm

Hello-

This is sort of off topic but-

I am completely re-designing the ICK website. I was wondering if anyone has a mac version of Adobe GoLive of Macromedia Dreamweaver... that I could "borrow" to make the site. My school has a windoze copy, but I'd like to have a copy of my own.

email me if you can help!

Henry
what coast?

Really nice web site, great job h.

I toured the entire site and I am impressed with the look, goes quite well with what comes to mind when I think of Ick Stick skateboard slalom racing boards.

It's great to see a company embrace racers who are not always on the podium, but have them on their team no less due to their knowledge and support of their products.

Great job, thanks for the update and letting us know.

--------------------

BTW: In the winter of 1978, I got a piece of carbon graphite foam from Dimitrije Milovitch, inventor of the Winterstick snow surfboard. I took this piece of foam back home from Utah and shaped it into a typical needle nose slalom board, skinned it with two layers top and bottom, each with fibreglass cloth that was used on the "roundtail Winterstick" The year is 1979 and the board got lost in my friends attic when I got my first Turner Summer Ski. It was recently presented to me by my old friend and I sent it to Gareth Roe for research and development to possibly finish it. I also introduced him to Dimitrije who is a carbon fibre specialist himself. He has many projects besides the Winterstick (Lance's Carbon Fibre Treks...) etc to his credit.

Anyway.

The board is FLAT, no camber, looks very much like a prototype ROE or Blackbird. It is old and in good shape but not drilled. I would like to have Rick finish this board with his Ick technology into a "Retro Flattie" au natural. The board shape is very much like the foundation shape on the RF (the bottom) and well, the construction technique of Ick Sticks lends itself to this board of mine having finally meet it's "dream" in becoming reality.

H, do you think you could talk with Rick about this? I know Rick myself, you and George, but it might be fun if you were to mention this to him.

I will have Gareth send him the board if he is willing to at a minimum take a look at the project. I'm pretty sure it will be interesting to him given the age, construction and materials. It is an odd one for sure, I want to finish it myself but I have a limited resource of time. It would be an honor to have Rick take a look at it.

The board has big mojo...

Again, nice web site, good for Ick.

The website seems to be full of Japanese Kogal Manga links. Is this a diversity of interest or viral flooding?
