Community Shout-Outs

Has someone gone out their way to hook you up or really help you out? If so, give them the props they deserve in this thread. Please don’t bitch about people here. This is meant to be a place of respect and appreciation.

I’ll give you my example:

Within five minutes of being introduced to Mike Maner through esk8.news, he did a remote access into my computer to help me solve a Vesc Tool driver issue that was bugging me to no end. He spent an hour of his time helping out a guy he barely knew just because.

Thanks, @mmaner !

One more bonus because it’s another thing that made me want to start this thread:

This is the podium from the Rocky Mountain Esk8 Races. Obviously, these guys deserve as much credit as possible for their achievement. This was seen by Thurbolt who then decided to make the trophies below and send them out so the riders would have great reminders of the event:

Very cool, @Thurbolt !

So I´ll send my shout out to the @mods who always try there best to hold this place clean, on track and also listen to the input they get from the community.

On my first build, I had issues with a remote and @rey8801 helped me out over dozens of thread replies. Eventually was solved but for a DIY esk8 noob I greatly appreciate little things like these

On one hand I really like this thread, its cool to give people a pat on the back and recognize a persons contribution. On the other… where do I start? :slight_smile:.

@Sender for making awesome decks even better, epic level stuff, and using me as his guinea pig is incredibly rewarding. And for being a great friend, none better.

@longhairedboy for giving us options. This community is important to me, without LHB we would be floundering.

@BillGordon for keeping his foot on the gas. I don’t think many of you guys realize how much time and effort Bill puts into this place, if it wasn’t for him I doubt we would be as far a long as we are.

@Psychotiller for taking the time (a long long time ago) to help an idiot (me :slight_smile:) make the leap to builder. That guy, damn. He’s been making legendary gear for years.

I want to shoutout to everyone who takes time to go to the noob thread and answer questions. I try to help out too but more often than not, I end up having to ask my stupid questions there myself. Without all of you, i wouldnt have a build and I’d be joining @mmaner on his unicycle rides.

This community is full of cool people.

  • When my friend crashed bad and sent his board under a car, you all pitched in and got him running again.

  • @Arzamenable lent me a battery to use in Colorado, without that I would have spent far too much time charging and far too little time riding.

  • @topcloud sent me some foot hooks after crashing pretty hard in real bindings

  • @Riako sent some extra motor mount plates my way just to share the stoke with someone halfway across the world.

  • Everyone who helped me with my first build; and tech support to this day.
