Twisted!!

Jimbo came over this evening a got a deck, and as he was going through the stack he found a deck that has a slight warp. After he left I went through the stack and found a few more. I have 4 decks that are have a slight twist and need to go. I'm getting rid of them for $20 a pop. If the deck warps up on your heel, the twist will go away in about a week.

So if anyone knows a grom out there who needs a new ride and doesn't mind a little twist send them my way.

Here they are:

Deckcrafters Slap Stick

Deckcrafters Sharpie

Conspiracy Blade Logo SOLD

Wreckroom Dan Tag Model SOLD

Throw in another $5 and get a slice of grip tape.

Thanks,

Miller Out

Colorado Springs or Tony Hawk or Whatever?

OK...so here's the deal. A couple of folks called me up telling me about the "grand poo baa" opening at the Nederland skatepark. Tony Hawk is gonna be there. Which is way cool. However, I also know that an ass load of people are gonna be up there as well. 

Hey if my neighbor, chick 27 yrs. old, doesn't skate, called me up to tell me, I think everyone in the state now knows. Besides, about two weeks ago, this dude called me up asking me if I wanted to set up a booth up there. He told me that over the course of the weekend they'll be about 10,000 people up there.  

So, I'm not gonna get to skate, there's gonna be a double ass load of grommets up there, and there's only one way into Nederland and one way out.  I think I'll pass. Hey, Tony Hawk is awesome, if and when I ever get to meet him, I'm gonna thank him SO much for the $$$ he donated to the Bennett DIY skate project, and Nederland and so many others. I just don't want to plow through 10,000 grommets to do so. Hell, I just got done teaching, why would I want to throw myself back in the fiery pit of doom?

Anyway, I'll be skating tomorrow morning at the Springs with Lindsey and the Conspiracy guys, I hope everyone has an awesome Saturday where ever your skate trip takes you!

To all,
I am going to Brighton around 4:00P and will report on the conditions in the morning. It seems most of the water collects in the jibber portion rather than the bowls. Anyway I plan to bring sqeegees, brooms, towels etc. and do my part.

Grindline In Edwards!

Freedom Skate Park Addition

The Skate Park in Edwards is receiving an upgrade to its existing amenities.  70 feet in length and 50 feet wide, the addition includes a 16 ft. high "cradle".  Rick Cook, a local real estate agent who was instrumental in the first skate park, spent more than a year to secure funding for the addition.  Contributors include:  Berry Creek and Edwards Metropolitan Districts, WECMRD and Eagle County - $40,000 each; Arrowhead Metropolitan District and Edwards Rotary - $5,000 each and private party donations totalling $6,000.

Construction began in April and the project's completion is expected in early June.  Eagle County's Road & Bridge Department re-located a storm water utility line to make way for the improvements.  Pete Fralick, P.E., is Eagle County Engineering Department's project engineer overseeing construction activities by Grindline Skateparks, Inc.

Coming Soon!!

New pool opening soon! This was the OG design for Bennett, before the frames got smashed. It's cool we'll still get to skate it though. This one has a lot more tranny than the other made to skate pools in CO. Which is cool, because I think the egg is perfect for the kids in Bennett.

Anyway, this pool was built by James Hedrick, Tim Mott, Chris B, Troy, and Greasy, with funds the city of Fort Collins had specifically earmarked for DIY skatepark projects.

How cool is that?!

Brighton Tuesday Night 5.12

Anyone gonna skate tonight??

Broken hand

Broke my right hand at Woodward today. Got hung up on a ramp and slammed hard on the conrete 6 ft below. I broke my 5th metacarpal bone. My first broken bone in all my 43 years on this planet.

There's also the BUFFALO BILL downhill races tomorrow at Lookout Mountain. If downhill is your deal.
