Spoky
I see.....
Click on the right button register "S'enregistrer" (new screen)
Then on "J'accepte le règlement et j'ai exactement ou plus de 13 ans" which means that you are more than 13 years old (sure?) and you accept common rules.
Then you access to the registration page:
"nom d'utilisateur" username
"Adresse e-mail:" .....
and don't forget the bunnies!!!!
Then you can improve your french speaking during winter too... ;-)

: But I think I need a name and password? Cant get into it. No english instructions how to sign up.

: : There is an english forum too, just waiting to be populated ;-)

: : : Thanks! I might stick with the soccer shoes cause I have the oak streets for now, they are heavy though, but I want a light skate. I could put ankle supports on since I wont start out on rails lol. I dont think I can cut aluminum well.
: : :
: : : I dont speak french tho and dont know how to sign on there to ask questions. I think I just need to know the type of bolts to use and where to get them for the soccer shoes. If I can't skate now, building skates is fun for me!
: : :
: : : : BTW at the time the vid was shot, Spoky used Fiberlite plates. Now he has Dickers plates+baskets with Krypto wheels.
: : : : You have nice picts of him there:

: : : : You are welcome to ask him questions on rollerquad forum ;-)

: : : : : With Basket shoes, the aluminium sole is needed because the basket sole is soft and deforms to much when you skate or jump. They add weight to your skate (100-200g per skate) With soccers shoes, you don't need them. Eveything is explained here (sorry, it's in french)

: : : : : : : : I'm going to sell my art skates I think now and build a speed skate for indoors but maybe also to jump on the streets, like this video. COOL! Whats his set up?

: : : : : : : He's using basketball shoes with an aluminum sole plate sandwiched between the shoe and plates. A very common setup in France.
: : : : : :
: : : : : : Tell me more on the aluminum sole! I've got some $9 soccer shoes here waiting on a speed/jumping set up. I think with trucks forward mount, maybe just my probe plates cause then I can put on the ramp trucks if I like. So like 1mm aluminum? Cut it up with a jigsaw and use a drill?
: : : : : :
: : : : : : Yeah, he can rip! Dudette wanna rip it up too!! :-D weather is crap so I'm having fun on u-tube daydreamin it up.
