Hell yeah man. Does it have a name yet, and will it be going up for sale soon?

He should do a community-based name selection and then just never announce the results and let folks continue suggesting names for months on end, in order to get the most free labor possible at the expense of the community’s sanity.

Yes, It’s called the Warlord. I should have it ready by the Newyear. It’s got the Odashi footbed with 35/35 nose/tail angles. I did the one pictured with a bunch of carbon-fiber, but it will be available in bamboo/fiberglass as well.

Ben. Can you tell me about this place?
How far is it and how much to ride?
It’s just under 2 hours from where I live. First heard about it when Evolve rented it and did a big weekend there. It was a great weekend. When I was there I bumped into a guy who does work for the centre who I did a winter season with years ago. I got hold of him recently and he introduced me to the owner.
Had a long chat with him. Turns out his 2 kids are high level motocross and supercross riders which I think drove the centre originally. Now he markets it as a multi use centre so people can do private hire of the place. Almost 100% electric usage now, he has a fleet of electric bikes and runs a lot of junior stuff to get kids into things at grass roots level.
We sorted out an afternoon of casual riding, there were 16 of us riding and we paid £30 each. Then a tenner each for an amazing home cooked meal for after.
We are going to hopefully grow it and make it a regular thing, perhaps once a month and look to getting a bigger weekend event organised.

1st board, 5th ride, 42 mph, first crash lol. A really nice smooth road and then some speed wobbles got me. Shit sucks but at least my wallet is the only thing in need of resuscitation.
I was geared up so I’m pretty much fine. My wrist has that tiny scratch and my ass is a little bruised. My back also hurts from Carrying this monstrosity home. Moto jacket is unfortunately totaled I think. Might want to invest in some impact shorts.
Guess I know what the board feels like when I’m on the verge of wobbling now.
Once I swap my motors out, I won’t even be able to get past 40 any more, but I wonder how I should change my truck’s setup to prevent the us from happening again. Seems like mainly a skill issue though I guess.
Overall, that ride was still fantastic.

In his defence, that watermark comes standard on all Xiaomi phones and its not the most obvious setting to disable. Shoutout to Xiaomi for cheap android phones, but shame on Xiaomi for using such a shitty ROM.

that’s a lot of speed. glad you got out ok. could easily go worse.
less steer less wobble.
less slop less wobble.
it’s only partly skill. and no where near as much as the hubris of most skaters will tell ya.
