With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

I know, haha. I got lost for a bit, ended up on 28 I think, and then took the road that goes up the hill past the Bellayre entrance. I found some private "road" (basically 4x4 trail) that brought me up to a cell tower which was at far side of Highmount opposite Bellayre (south end? lost my bearings up there).



I'm totally down for Highmount if it gets some snow this winter, the place looked sweet!

Oh man it is sweet. the only issue is getting cars parked down there so you dont have to make the walk back to the entrance of Belleayre where the bus can snag you if you toss a dollar at them

It's going to be super fun.  Plus it involves Ed making a badass breakfast in the morning, blazin, skating for a few hours and then dirnking the rest of the day. 

We are going to get through this pub crawl with no broken teeth, no broken glasses (uh prob not), no broken windshields, and no rides in the back of cop cars... (the last pub crawl, Save Second Base, didn't go so smooth.)

well ajay... we all have our own preferences. I'm not trying to hate on fake boobies, but for my taste... if you're laying on your back and they're still standing straight up to the sky... uhhh not cute. just my opinion.
and yes we all know you're shallow. ;)

I had a great chat with my best friend this morning. I actually don't really refer to her as my best friend, since we've become so distanced over the past two years (just lives going in separate directions - different focuses) - but the chat was great, and felt really home like. Comforting. A good smile. I miss her a lot.

That's sweet...I've lived 2500 miles from most of my closest friends (from growing up, anyway) for the past 4 years and it's always good to get a chance to hang out again once in a while.

Well, the sad part is that we live in the same area. 10 minutes from each other. Even worked the same job together for the past 8 years. Though we've both decided to quit. Which was the basis of our conversation. We also had our sons 20 days apart. We should really get them together more, its just so hard when we're both so busy =(

But, stoked I'm hiking Giant Ledge today with Bangor.

I found a 125gb file hiding in my computer that had no purpose and was the cause of much frustration over the past 2 weeks. This hunk of lard slowed down my comp so much that it froze and i almost lost all summers worth of work.


Deleting that badboy and seeing my comp come back up to full speed is sweeeeeeeeeet!

So I have a longboard push race tomorrow. 13 Kms I just cleaned & greased my bearings. Then I started fucking around with the way my trucks were mounted on my drop deck. I mounted the back truck on the bottom of the board giving the back truck a raised profile over the front. I'm not convinced it works any better, the greased bearings are running fast, it seems it takes more work to push the board around with it higher off the ground. I think i'm going to put it back to the original set up but it was fun tinkering around with it for a bit. The prizes are a complete DH board set up so I'm hoping to do well. I used to run 10 km years ago. I've never timed myself on a 13 Km circuit but I have no doubts that i'll be able to finish without ever had training for the event.

Yo if you put too much grease in the bearings it actually slows you down for a while and makes it super hard to push.

I made that mistake a couple months ago when I cleaned my bearings out and regreased em.

Stoked on going hiking again, which Ashley will tell you I obviously haven't done in awhile, haha. (I pretty much almost died. In my defense I was carrying a shit ton of camera gear....)

Also stoked on pictures at the summit; photos to follow in a week or so when I get the panorama's stitched together.

Yeah I use the same cream and I would use only 1 drop per bearing if I wanted to race i think. I used 4 each (LOL!) the first time and got dominated with slow wheels and the second time I used 2 and it still left a touch slow but WAY better.

I would 1 say 1 a piece because your racing though...bitches would be suuuuuuuuuper quick

More than the recommended 2 drops, will it build up a resin in the bearings? I coated them pretty good then ran them fast to get them running smoooth

it slows them down thats for sure. I found my bearings spun fastest/longest right after i cleaned them (no lube). When i added 4 drops it felt like there was some molases in my bearings or something...super slow.

So i just use one drop now (like recommended) which lightly coats the bearins for protection but lets them run with the least amount of resistance. IMO, works way better then more lube.

Less is more you could say :P

So the push race went off. Great weather. A bit of a dispute at the end over the finishings not that it really mattered. When I was coming in on the closing stretch the cops made people walk in the last KM because someone (A longboarder) got hit by a car at an intersection. They were fine... It happened just before I got to that point there, So it affected my time pretty badly, I tied for 7th and a french kid disregarded the cop and skated to the finish line changing the finishing places, and my time was skewed 37 minutes with the walk, i reckon I would have finished about 33-34 mins had I been able to skate to the end. I was saving my juice for a sprint push but it didn't go down. I got a sweet T-shirt out of it.

Actually some skier named Brain who's on ns althought I don't know his username took the mens -18 title with 31 mintues.

Almost every top finisher was using the big zigs Click for larger image
