What a way to start the new year! Happy New Year! I keep thinking I am going to gradually fade away into the sunset but not quite yet! Thanks Greg for having me on your show.

Slalom Cyber Skateboarding World Records for 25, 50 and 100 cone Records

Came across these documents while looking for something else about Cyber Slalom. In 2008 I set up a Cyber Weekend in Santa Cruz for the 25-50 International 25, 50, 100 cone race. We set a course on the levee in Santa Cruz near Josephine Street. Jonny Miller was kind enough to bring a start ramp and we set it up on the levee. 

We had a good size crew of all ages. Jamie Hart came down from Sacramento, John Ravitch, Gary Holl, Jonny Miller from Los Osos and many others a few we have lost like NorSki and Wally Sueyoshi RIP. We did get one complaint and the police showed up. I told them we would be done soon and a few hours later they came back and we wrapped it up. It took a bit longer than I thought but it was done and we had times. I just ran the Cyber a October 7th and my time was slower by .4 seconds.

25 Cones 6 feet apart, 3 pushes from a start box. You have to go both directions and average the two fastest times.

50 Cones 6 feet apart, 3 foot start ramp. One direction timed run fastest of 3 headwind and slight uphill.

100 Cones 6 feet apart, no ramp push start. I direction timed run fastest of 3 we set up this course on a hill in San Jose. I remember we had head winds and it was super super hot 95 degrees. Heat effects your wheels and the wind slows you down.
