sinnergirl, there are hills in this state..though not like anything you'd find in the carolinas or out west...start with google and be creative..get in your car and drive....that's how most skaters find their spots but they are jealously guarded once found and some are disinclined to post about them online...it only takes one of your favorite spots getting blown out and shut down as the result of some skate punk(s) to learn why they're kept on the down low...especially in a state that has only so many available..
unlike the old days, you have access to the internet and determination to find what it is you want...

Hey Joyce,
You did fine at Pump Station! A few falls--- so what? You got right back up & did it again! I still have scars from when I first started slalom-- I wear them proudly, kind of like battle scars.
Thanks for helping at the race-- you did a great job making sure everyone started when it was their turn.
As far as you catching me next time at a race--- in your dreams, girlfriend, in your dreams!!!!!
Sorry you're going to miss Texas.
See ya at the next one in my rear view mirror!!!
Love ya-- Cat!

Great skating last weekend, by everyone but myself. Still getting used to Pump Station;s hill. Hello Isabelle, thanks for your time last weekend, you are a good coach.
Cat, how u doing? I will catch you next time at a race, in more ways than one. Very good to hook up and skate last weekend.
Trish, thanks for offering me a board. Now i think im good for boards, Just got AXE III and am planning to use it throughout the years. First time tonite at Sky Dome parking garage and for a special session, across the street at a P11. Its all indoors for a few months because of the snow.
Have a great time in Texas but I have to decline. Maybe next year. This year I have plans for Kona, Colorado and North Carolina, Ottawa and more. No Europe this year. So see you Bras later.

Isabelle, I am all ready with the pads and helmet. What I really need is your yahoo email address, and directions to the site. I know I could dig deep and find your email address, but if you could pop me a quick email that would be great.
joyce@mycybernet.net Thanks.
CAT- I want to go to Texas Sizzler too. Just going to see if I can rig up a GS board while I am in CA. Got to be prepared.
Later

Hi Isabelle. I want to go to your DHD day Jan 27. My only problem is that I am only bringing one board and it may not be the right one, so if i may borrow a longboard or something that would be great. The board I am bringing is very versatile so it should suffice.
We will have fun! See you next week.

I will be teaching a couple of skateboard classes this spring 2007. May 12 th will be a slalom skateboarding class will teach basic skills on balance and technique. We will split the class into groups based on skill level. Class will start with a short review on safety, proper helmet fit, slides, footbraking and pumping. It's fun, great exercise and does not require much equipment. Basic skateboard skills required. Skater should be able to push start and turn. World record downhill and former World Champion, John Hutson, Freestyle Champion, Gary Holl and professional racer John Ravitch will assist with instruction. Bring your own skateboard. Helmets, knee pads and elbow pads required.Beginning/Intermediate Slalom Skateboard Class Santa Cruz
June 9 th is the Skateboard Slide Class.
Have you ever gotten going to fast and couldn't run it out. This will be a good back pocket tool to get yourself out of a bad situation. Worth taking with skate legend Cliff Coleman.
Description:
Learning skate sliding techniques helps with numerous aspects of skating and increases safety in the sport. Slide class will teach skateboarders how to slide stop and slide to turn. Cliff Coleman will help teach the class. Cliff is a world class slalom skateboarder and teaches slide clinics worldwide.
