omg, that's a sick idea. I hope you don't mind, but i'm totally stealing that idea. I have a pair of skullcrushers with the worst headband or whatever it's called.
Hmmm, now I need to decide whether to v-lam it or use veneers and press it...

Ha, I guess it is kind of a claim, but we got more snow this year than anyone that lives here can remember. The trails we mountain bike and dirtbike on are still buried, so I might as well go sledin' right?
