Here's me.

Edit: Oh.. and here's my obligatory frontman picture.

hi man - yeh unfortunately I don't live in such beautiful areas as you visited - I live in Dublin, Dingle is indeed an amazing place though - I've been there before. I've never been to Waterville, though I've been to Kerry a good few times and it is in general a great placeRadarScope1 wrote:Hey baphomet, whereabouts in Ireland do you live? I took a trip there with my wife's family over the summer. Stayed on "the Kingdom" in County Kerry in a sleep little town called Waterville. Also spent a weekend in Dingle. Man, it was such a great time. Loved the people, loved the food, and especially loved the beautiful scenery. Next time I go I want to see a hurling matching in person.

did you ever see that pic of the wheel that spontaneuosly combusted on a hill run? apparently the urethane in early wheels was quite volatile...
man that bottom pic is proper class - wouldn't look out of place in the pages of 'Fuck You Heroes'
the only problem is it looks like you're 'natural' footed :p
yeah i've seen melted wheels, a lot of it has to do with both formula and molding technologies. there are hubs in most downhill wheels now, so unless you fill your bearings with sand or really over-tighten your wheel nuts there isn't anything to worry about.
and yeah i'm regular footed, however i can ride both ways pretty well. when riding across town I can push with either foot from either stance. It makes long distance skates far less tiring.
