Roc.N.Rol
21.08.2007, 14:07
I will be coming to this for sure... competing is another question. My right bow is at about 87% right now, but I obviously want to be in the best condition possible to skate that kinked rail. Those ledges look amazing too, how are the pavers doing as far as run up is concerned though? It looks a bit choppy, still sick ledges anyways. See you guys there!
rolla4life69
21.08.2007, 14:14
run up on the ledges? its all brick and rolls fine. its not the type of brick that fucks u up. and as for the kink rail we are getting plywood for the landing
Dan Barnes
21.08.2007, 16:35
Me and Demarchi will be coming up from Buffalo. I'll try to get some more kids together.
rolla4life69
21.08.2007, 17:27
nice. i finally get to skate with nick again. since hes moved to buffalo he hasnt came down to skate once!! slacker
Well, if I can somehow get off of work, I will try to bring a full car. I wanted to go last year.
rolla4life69
21.08.2007, 17:55
last year i thought was fun minus the guy at the skatepark being a dick and letting me have no say in how anything was done, but its street this year and the spots are good so i think itll go real well

I really wish I could make it to this. I hope someone does that high flat drop rail at franklin. I know nick was talking about doing it awhile ago.
rolla4life69
22.08.2007, 12:56
yeah that would be really sick. nick royaled the fat down rail im not sure if u were there for that.

rolla4life69
29.08.2007, 09:30

able2roll
29.08.2007, 16:15
we have rat tail sending things to give out rw is gettin back to us hopefully soon and directions should be ready to spot one shortly
ps the rail in my sig has next to no runup and would require ply wood(which is being brought the day of the comp) and skateing uphill on the wood.

rolla4life69
31.08.2007, 18:50
its WAY too early to be accurate but it says saturday might have scattered showers. everyone was thinking like a day or so before the contest if it says it still is going to rain. what does everyone think about moving it til sunday the 9th? we have tons of shit from RW, revolution skate, rat tail possably more so we def wanna pull it off. but as it stands right now its on for the 8th. just want to see what everyone thinks
Stefan B.
31.08.2007, 23:15
if it's the 9th or it rains we won't be able to come. way too far of a drive.
Yup, it's official, I can't get off work.....gay.

07.09.2007, 20:30
not in rochester. but like i said when u get up if its shitty out. call me. it might be nice here. and its only supposed to be scattered showers. 40 percent at that. so we will be good
Dan Barnes
07.09.2007, 21:00
Yeah I think tomorrow is going to be a toss up. The Weather Channel says theres a going to be showers in the am, then a 50% chance of t-storms developing in the afternoon. Regardless, all the kids from Buffalo and Rochester are still going to come out and we'll make the best of it. Ha, preety gay though that it's hardly rained all summer but the day of a comp. it has to. Anyways, cya guys tomorrow.
rolla4life69
07.09.2007, 21:06
yeah i hear u on that. im glad everyone is still coming out regardless. hope the comp goes off well without much rain. see everyone there
able2roll

tim_adams
08.09.2007, 08:38
It's kinda looking like rain, but we're coming anyway. If nobody shows, we'll just have one of those smaller chilled out sessions WNY is known for.
See you guys soon.
