Hey Border - thanx for the phone mail. I was stuck in meetings all day today otherwise would have been up for a midday skate and lunch.
Work is eating me alive these days including this weekend. I'm off to Yamanashi so no chance of me getting out for a session this w/e but enjoy. This is the season for riding before rainy season descends and we are left looking at videos until mid-July. Would be up for a session before the Fuji run though. Any chance of you getting back to Tokyo before May? Laser you still alive? "Flow or Never" as seen recently on a classic no-where-but-Japan T-shirt. |

sure man, anytime before May I can make it. Just name a weekend and I will be ready to roll.
I guess it's just me and Lazer practicing our slidin. Just gave this dude Tim a call. Not sure if he will check or post a reply. Sk8, can you give Ken a call and see if he wants to come out? |

I'll give Ken a call this morning and send you his phone number as a second option.
Hope the session goes off well. "Flow or Never" as seen recently on a classic no-where-but-Japan T-shirt. |

awwww crap... noone answering phone..
It's 5PM Sat afternoon... We can either do a night session Saturday, or a Sunday AM session, or both. If I can't get a hold of you guys, I'm gonna go do a slide sesh tonight at Ebisu, and hopefully can meet you guys again on Sunday AM. So to summarize... The skate session will happen on Sunday AM at the Ebisu station. Go skate down the skywalk and we shall meet at the end. If any of you feel like a session as well tonight, I think I might be rolling around that area... |

Sounds like you guys had a good session. It was raining in Yamanashi so I went running. You get any photos today?

Good times. Border definetly won the award for hard charger . . . I had my pussy boots on, call me Nancy.
Sk8e I have a little problem with my wheels beginning to cone. Border said its no problem but any safety concerns? I will probably have to grab another set off you at some point. I will email you later in the week. Fancy Nancy |

Pussy boots...must be warm and juciy then?

Hey Nancy,
As a beginning try rotating your wheels. They cone at different rates - typically left front is the worst with right rear following for regular stance riders. Goofy will find the opposite wear pattern. That should balance things out a bit and maybe put off the purchase a few more months. Anyone up for a skate this Sunday??

DEF in for Sunday. I have been watching slide vids this past week and am definately stoked to get the coleman down...
Lazer is definately coning and has a small flat spot on one of his wheels. His rail grabbing slides puts his weight ON the board and not into the ground so his wheels get eaten to hell... You can see all the marks in the pics.. Hey Lazer *grabs are for p*ssies!* ... got only a couple pics down. The spiral parking garage was taken at Tsukigi... http://s18.photobucket.com/albums/b111/GRES/2006-04-02%20Morning%20Sk8%20Sesh/ see you guys Sunday AM... waiting to do Omotesando hill again... |
