Whew, Hugh is back!- I'll expect to see you at some races soon. BTW how are those Krypto's doing in your collection?

You know it wouldn't be the same without you at the races.

hugh r, i don't read ncdsa daily so i don't know what you are talking about.

don't let any high spirited "pro" get you down...

i do know that you are at the "roots" of the revival, you make a good reference web site and you are always welcome here.

A few days ago I was very discouraged with slalom skateboarding and a paticular group of "pro's"... and especially with the ongoing threads on the ncdsa site.

I posted up my thoughts (to which I have not offered any defense or appoligies) and decided to let them run.

I have received a number of very encouraging emails and also some posts that have made a difference in my life. I want to thank not only those kind souls, but also those of you here who have not jumped on the "slam hugh r" bandwagon.

I have had a change of heart in regards to several of the statements that I posted. Mostly because I started to think about the many, many very cool, very decent people in the slalom community that I have become friends with over the past few years.

I'm not ready to give THAT up! Thanks to you guys!! HR
