Turner Eurofighter-Take Off!!!

[Martin Drayton]

"After a very happy period of my slalom career with the TurnerSummerSki team, I am moving on to pastures new-as they say.
I would like to say a big public thank you to Peggy Turner and Steven Church for allowing me to fulfill a childhood dream of riding for Turner, it is something I will always say with pride.
I wish them both well with the company and know that Turner will once more become a major force in slalom skateboard racing, and if the new boards under development are anything to go by, that won't be too far in the distant future - Bobby Turner's legacy will continue forever!"

[Martin Drayton]

Hey Claude,

Of course you can try it! Its the easiest Turner I have come across to ride since the Hybrid, but leaves the Hybrid in the dust when it comes to acceleration!
I have got into using foam for a little concave, so I didn't try it without.
Just got to talk the powers that be into building me a 34" for Hybrid/US Slalom (like Morro)! Can't wait...

[Claude Regnier]

Wow! What a nice job! Sweet convcave! You'll have to let me try it at Morro Bay!

I was sorry to read about your mishaps after Antibes but I'll be glad to see you again.

Take care.

Martin-
Very Nice!

Top view-mounted.


I may even remove some of the risers as the shape/wheel wells give it a lot of clearance


Riding it to 3rd place in the Tight Slalom at the World Cup at Antibes, the first day it was ridden...
