Id be a happy man to Tim if owned a weapon like yours.
Another great day which seemed to go to fast, Haggy your going to have to fix that, we want more hours in the day, or perhaps start at noon.
Thanks Bugs.

Fellow Believers!

Good times yesterday. Bugs was the master architect of what I reckon was one of the most challenging courses we have yet seen at Allawah. A lot of speed and tricky offsets, but man what fun! It took everyone a couple of attempts to make it, but everyone quickly got the course dialled in and then it was just flat out for the fastest times!!

Great to see everyone who made it out.
Bra Pete - Kel has your boards you left behind.

Now I’m really beginning to look forward to Bangalow, hell yeah!!

#11

thanks haggy, thanks again bugs, :laughing:
for another afternoon of fun racing.
does anyone have kel’s # so i can get my antiques back :blush: :slight_smile: .
i have to get a real slalom setup :mrgreen: and stop using haggy’s.
hey scoot, kel looks like a threat, bts greg put the craftwood deck through to 3rd and those nulla lads are catching up quick - old school team also looking good.

sic fun, top congregation, great altar, another convert… :stuck_out_tongue:
thank god for skatin’ :smiling_imp:

Another fine day of racing at Allawah! The course was a bit intimidating at first but turned out alright after a few practice runs where you could work out the line to take.

Results:

  1. 21.618 Haggy
  2. 24.155 Daniel
  3. 24.292 Bugs
  4. 24.559 Kel
  5. 24.830 Groundhangers
  6. 25.591 Mbr Pete
  7. 26.756 Fitzy
  8. 27.397 Jogger
  9. Tim
  10. Dave

Thought I’d got second but Daniel got by me with those stylish drop-knee turns. And now I’ve got Kel and Groundhangers right behind me too.

The guy taking photos is named Craig, and he’s going to give me a copy when he’s finished processing them. I’ll post them here then. They looked pretty good in the camera.

#13

Wow - looking at those times (and with no disrespect to any involved!) I’d have to say the results are more like:

  1. Haggy
  2. Daylight
    3 etc. Everyone Else

I’ve yet to find enough skatepoints to attend a slalom sesh but on the strength of the figures I really look forward to seeing Haggy in action!

#14

#15

Mick - check out www.slalomskateboarder.com
They have a list of pretty much all the different board manufacturers. Whatever you get you can’t go wrong. Or perhaps GH will go into board manufacture - BTS Slalom decks would be rad!!

Let us know if you have any questions about gear or are thinking of buying stuff.

Great to see you out there yesterday - you were ripping!

#16

Yeh the decks are all a trial and error thing right now but, im as keen as mustard so ill just keep at it. Brains is working overtime without pay so he is really going to have to pull his finger out for Bangalow.

#17

BTS Slalom Boards!!!

Go into mass production and sell em to new keen slalom riders in oz…
