If any willing souls are coming up short on longboards I've got a legendary set of K2 TNC - 210's with Salomon 957 Equipe bindings in my garage 100 feet from lph's casa. They are available for a loan out to any worthy and willing maggot. They can be carried quite easily in a Ski Tote.
warning - one tip is a little bent from landing in a bomb hole at Kirkwood about 15 years ago. But it's the same model all the bad boyz skied in "License to Thrill"......i.e. EXTREME-O.
Lemme know.
Gonna have to call you on that one. I have a 210 Snowboard. I can't make it to K-wood this weekend. I'll be at Alpine on Saturday though. I could probably arrange to get you the board if you are serious. I ride it a fair amount and its a blast.Quote:

I also have some very old, very long wooden skis with leather straps to hold you down. Some day I'll have to get up the balls to take those out for a run. They were my grandfather's.
I call dibs, depending on if my boots fit.Quote:

That's part of what Long Board Day is about. People helping people.
And then wrecking ourselves silly on skis that are much too long for our own good.
:yourock:
Bonus points for whomever ventures into the terrain park first on their 215's and throws a double daffy.
I've got a 200 swallowtail snowboard. Can I get a judges ruling to make this count considering the additional edge area??
I think we will allow it if you give me another skigee!Quote:

Really warms my heart to see you fuckers pulling together like this.
I had a few beers on the plaza after my day today and now I am enjoying a few delicious cocktails out on the patio at home. But then again I'm probably not as drunk as you!!!!
I can't wait for this TR.
I'm actually pretty excited for this TR myself. I hope there will be mucho pictures of people wiping big time. Or at least some pics of all of you bombing on your long boards wearing some old school one pieces or something. I think there needs to be some type of dress code for this historic event as well. :yourock:
Anybody got a pair of hippy sticks (not to be confused with Hippy stinx)....
Otherwise, I might have to join in the festivities by using training heels...
Slim, basom, and 666, skiing drunk on DH boards? That's approximately 1500 cms of rangy destruction, hummin' comin' atcha.

I'll bring a pair or two of 226's to share.
You got 'em.Quote:

Last year had a pathetic showing....

And yeah, pics will be taken in the park, and of course the quarterpipe above the ice-rink. Who wants to hit Thunder Bowl old school style?
I can also bring some Kingswoods (skinny/midfat/fat) if anyone wants to try them that has a 324mm sole or 28.0.
what 'choo got? Sounds like ridefree will be on 200 something maybe...Quote:

does that work since I'm short? maybe I'd have to go reverse and try a 132cm? I guarantee I'll look just as rad.
I like Slim have to study but with this offer, I think I might be in it to win it.Quote:

Bonus points on the long boards for:
-Double Daffys (already mentioned)
-Double Spread Eagles (I think this can be harder than the DD)
-Penciled out floater 3's
-Worm Turns
-Straightlines (Wall or Sentinel Bowl) <- don't blow that turn at the end of SB!
-Supreme Ruler of All Award goes to anyone who can pull a Screamin Semen with DH boards!! :D

The baby is expected to log onto the board as "LukeIvarthechamp" within days. :biggrin:
