Indian School this year?
On 1/5/2009 Kenny wrote in from United States  (69.223.nnn.nnn)

Just wondering. I have some guys here from Ohio that want to come down to skate, not race. If no Indian Outlaw, then we will come for the ditch slap.

Marshall?

Got my screws out of my heel bone. All 12 of em. Feels so much better. Cannot wait to ride the ditches again. Cruise. I'm not 40 anymore. Damn, to be 40 again...

So I use to live in Albuquerque (and moving back this summer and looking for people who are really passionate about skating to skate with, but that's another post..)
But anyways, I was trying to view the timeship website and it seem's like its no longer there? is there another link to get there?
Also this will be the 6th ditch slap that I'll miss but next year undoubtly.

Pot Spring
On 10/7/2008 The Messenger wrote in from United States  (199.111.nnn.nnn)

Good news, through the stream renovation directly next to pot spring ditch, only the very bottom of the ditch was destroyed which was rarely skated anyways. Great to see this gem survive to be ridden another day.

swiping the broom
On 5/9/2008 nicktheripper wrote in from United States  (75.214.nnn.nnn)

I went to the hotel circle ditch, and what do I find tons of crap to clean and the broom was gone. 40min of sweeping the ditch with my board and my foot. guess its time for some new kicks, planning on bring 4 parking blocks to the site. PLEASE don't swipe the blocks as well cause that won't be replaced. later cyber shredders!

Ditch Slap, Indian School, Fun skate Jams
On 5/7/2008 Mitchell wrote in from United States  (67.177.nnn.nnn)

Just like the INdian school-which was great! How ever you like, thats how you get it.For me; Ditch Slap is an opportunity for skaters who like to ride with friends, take off solo, compete, or just ride every kind of terrain immaginable, via shuttle. And it's just rad to hang and ride with such a cool group of stoked people. Hats off to those riders who had the Grit to challenge themselves in every event and every kind of terrain; from the Sandia and Rio Bravo downhill runs, Numerous abounding ditches everywhere you look,killer skateparks, right down to the gnarly three mile free for all, with it's "Crash Corner" and let's not forget the gruelling cross town race. Thanks to all who showed and had a good time. thanks Timeship (also thanks to the "Marshall" and Palmer for Indian School) - for a killer event and just laying out a great venue of skateboarding for us all to challenge our skills. Thanks to the sponsors for their support and great skateboarding products. Leaving Ditch Slap 08'(and the Indian School 08'), I feel inspired to test my skills in all terrain and I am looking forward to putting some new equipment to the test in the future. Thanks to all for just sharring the stoke of life on a skateboard. I will be back next year for sure-if not sooner! PS- Nice Vid Jimmy - Good luck to all for future comps and killer sessions with friends.
