  Hey All.
Hope everyone's having a great weekend. I'm including a couple pictures of my latest grind plates. I haven't skated them just yet (which is why I've taken them now in case I mangle them during their Virgin Session tomorrow morning. But I don't think they will.....I'm actually pretty anxious to try them out.

Anyway I'll let you know if/how they work tomorrow.
Thanks to Biff (I think) for basically shaming me into change! Keep healing, Bro.
Hope those of you who can are able to Skate this weekend. I'm always Stoked to see anybody's video/picture submissions from their sessions.
Those of you who can't Skate due to injuries, HEAL WELL!!

PEACE.................Jay

 Haha!

I didn't mean to shame you as much as goad you. That looks interesting, though. I'm thinking about doing those sliders on my new set-up that everyone else has; made from the UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) Polyethylene. We can compare notes once I can skate again.

Cheers!
Biff

 btw, is that steel or aluminum? I would guess that aluminum would get mangled too quickly.

Just wondering,
Biff

 Hey Jay they look rad.You might find the ally a bit sticky but I recon you could mount some poly(as Biff suggested) on them and then youl be laughing.
Hey Biff hows the leg comming along,,looking forward to some fresh vid/pic action when your back in business.
Keep ripping folks.

cheers joe

 Leg is getting better everyday, but my knee still feels really tight. I'm going to start doing long walks now and a lot of bicycling. Thanks for asking! I'll get those videos out soon.

Cheers!

Hi All,
Wasn't able to skate today due to some ass-kicking virus I've got. The plates ARE Aluminum, but it's strong stuff. I hope it'll hold. I just LOVE the sound of metal when grinding.....I'll post something once I'm able to....

Sure hope Everybody feels better than me today!!!
PEACE.....Jay

 Jay, I can't wait to hear how those work out. I have the same plates as you. I am currently using plastic screwed to jump bar and it works pretty good. Yours looks better and I can't wait to see how they hold up.

Hey Robert,
I'll give you an update once I've ridden them. I still haven't. Been fighting a bug & I'm also one of the lucky few in the Grand ol' USA whose actually working MORE than ever. So I haven't had a chance to ride them yet. :( I'm jonesing to & hoping to skate tomorrow. I'm optimistic about the set-up though. I made it for under $5 too! :) So, if they DO work I'll send you the specs as it were.
Anyway, hope all's well in Sunny SD. Glad you're skating. Love to see some of your Hi Quality footage of your latest session(s).
PEACE........................Jay

 Wow, lucky you, working AND getting paid? I was working 14 hrs a day this weekend between school projects and work but get paid almost nothing lol. I have a job it seems illustrating and getting it published a book but no pay. Dumb maybe but an incredible opportunity for an artist wannabe.
