| : : As many of you know, I have been trying to come up with some sort of plate set up. My plates are not designed for to incorporate double sliders so I thought of an idea and realized I think like Tim Altic. lol I mentioned a while back that I wanted to attach UHMW plastic to a jump bar to make it stronger and closer to the coping. Because I have no tools or talent, I went to a plastic Fab shop and had them cut and drill the plastic to my jump bar. I just got it back today and put them on. I have not skated on them yet, but am including pics.

: nice job! let us know how it works. i think the plastic on top will make them strong enough but i might still agree w/ irene. i found the width for ME to not be too stable. there is less to balance on. i believe lisa is redoing her grindbars tho. i'm not sure if she took our suggestion to have them clasp.
also, before u roll, make sure u can rock the trucks w/out the plastic rubbing. if it does, take a mm off the ends.
