I got my new Eastside drop deck this weekend, yippie! Got the Otang in Heats, R2's, Venom bushings... buttery board, so stable on the downhill. Basically no flex, but I don't miss it on the hill.

Thanks Jason & Katie from Motion Board Shop for getting it to me this weekend, they got some pretty sick / informative vids on their site I noticed:

Also noticed this today, good read for the aluminum board discussion:

My elbow pads arrived on friday. So are you guys ready to hit the zoo again? I feel the need for skin grating speed.

There is already a northwestlongboarding.com and a nwskate.net. Better get nwskate.com while the getting is good.

Don't worry about me! This is a great way to practice shooting and processing, just not able to post each of you online each time because of other work...of course right now it's time to finally kite! Cool

UNACCEPTABLE!!

Seriously though, we should at least set up an "all Colby" shoot to repay the stoke...
