Hmmm! Twinkely

Jesus that's gotta be a 15ft drop off!?!

Ok, finally got the funds together to get some new trucks. I'm currently running skate style trucks and am gonna get some channel spring trucks. My questions i would like to thrrow out there to you guys are; 1.) Recommendations on who's i should get, Trampa? Other? 2.) Do i need to change my bearing...

I'm with you. I'll be there on Sunday, and I'm bringing my maths. Yer man, saw on fb that you were joining the cause, it'll be great to meet you as the only way i know any of the mountain boarding community at the moment is through a pc screen. It'll also be great to get up to this place as i feel ...

Bloody did bt didn't wanna mess it up but feel all the wiser for it now, learnt alot of things from it

So talked to the nice people at this mountain boarding centre, they are building new areas and extending the boardercross track and put a shout out on facebook for some help. Seeing as i was going on Sunday anyways i said i'd give 'em a hand building and it looks like it could be a fun filled day of...

You'll find they are prob rusted in a bit, but with a bit of good old wd40 and brute force and ignorance they will come out, I dunno about a drill pattern for regular snowboard bindings but i know that nosno use a standard 4 hole drill pattern. I've just swapped the same bindings you have for mbs pr...

Take up the cleeve hill offer, scour the internet for tuition vids (loadsa of 'em), Try sites like remolition, dirt box etc. But seriously it is pretty esy to learn the basics. I've had my bo...

Padded palm, hard wearing, armoured on the back for knucle protection and wristguards fit over the top and the icing on the cake is they on cost a fiver so they are cheap to replace when wworn out (plus you got a great excuse to go pa...

I am watching this thread as i prob 'bout same size as you Mark and am soon to upgrade to some sort of channel trucks. so when you get it all worked out with the dampers i'll jump on your bandwagon as a set up.

That was so much fun to watch such a shame i couldn't be there, maybe next year (might even enter!!!). Will be off to Round 2. Only to watch though and unfortunatly only on the Sunday as have to work Saturday which is an arse 'cos i really think boardercross would be my bag. Though me and the missus...

Went with the MBS pro but only 'cos i'm waiting for some to ship

So i found this place and it is KERAAAZZZZYYY. Massive jumps, big long technical downhills with berms n jumps etc. Trees everywhere, trails everywhere and it just goes on and on. There were a load of bikers working on new jumps and berms, spoke to one of 'em who after saying "you ain't going down on...

you got the job!

Oh dear at the end of all this there is just gonna be 4 of us riding!

We'll have to just buy a hill and fashion new equipment outta junk and crap we find lying around all 4 of us will end up looking like some mutant post apocalyptic boarders! maybe that's where the zombies come in?
