Looking forward to the mobile skatepark. this is the closest thing to an event that we've done. We still need some cash for shirts, so everyone pitch in a couple bucks, and i'll buy a silkscreen and we can start makin some shirts. Cool.

Some of you know me as the skateboard and snowboard buyer for Freestyle. I have also been one of the key people involved since the beginning in the development of the McIntire Skatepark in Charlottesville (over 15 years before it was ever approved). I also helped get Westover Skatepark in Harrisonburg steered in the right direction and provided a bit of counseling to the parks departments of Staunton and Hot Springs as well. I know what you guys are going through and I wanted to offer my support and congratulations to your achievements so far. I’d also like to throw up props to Tim who has already done a tremendous amount of leg work as is evident by the progress Skatenelson has already made. Everyone smack there trucks down on the coping for Tim! Hopefully I can make it over this week to skate the portaparky with you guys. I’ll at least tell my team guys about it and see if some of them and maybe a Drama team guy or two can show. I’ll just have to see if I can drag myself away from the bowl renovation we’re doing at McIntire – what a HUGE nightmarish project. Keep an eye on it though; once it’s done it’s gonna RIP! It’ll probably be another month. I am trying to finish the mini this week though. Anyway, I hope I can get out and hang for a while. Anybody know if that rigs got a mini? Tim – am I reading above right that Saturday is on for 9 till noon? See you guys there. Hey everyone,
