how often do you re-apply PAM cuz i think i'm doing it too often. i'm going through a can every 2 or 3 sessions.

[derc a der]

ghey im not 21, post some fotty or something after its done

dammit me neither.

[SACTO skim]

ehh i used as much as possible i would go like 10 runs then clean the rail so theres no sand and re apply the pam seems to work.
edit- but when i use bowling ally wax i put it on before i go skim and its works the whole time, when i get home i pressure wash it and re-apply

[derc a der]

right on. definitely getting bowling alley wax. +1

[SACTO skim]

i would also put it on the bottom of your board, just buff it on pretty much, ooo but it smells like shit nothing like sex wax or sticky bumps

[derc a der]

how does everglide speed wax compare or have you tried that?

[Brian Kniveton]

water dropped Goose Poo Island Sessssshhh in T- 1hour

[SACTO skim]

how does everglide speed wax compare or have you tried that?

there both pretty much the same but with everglide its harder to apply cause your supposed to put it on with your hands but with the other stuff you use a paper towel lots easier and it comes with more

[derc a der]

i haven't been to ashton all summer but i'll try to come.

[SACTO skim]

hey sac when is the inlandskimmovement website going to be done? ive been waiting =P

[derc a der]

^amen^

i found the same problem with everglide and then i think i was using it wrong (not enough or too much even though it gives instructions) and then it broke open in my skim bag and my bag has smelled like cinnamin since. it burned my eyes when i opened the bag the first time

[SACTO skim]

yeah i also stained my nothing is cool tee from the bowling ally wax when i was putting it on my board lmao damn stuff, but i left the can open on accident in my room and went to go skim and my room smelt like the bowling ally wax

[Brian Kniveton]

www.inlandskimmovement.com is planned to drop before skimfest. if everything goes right for once.

i believe nothing is cool t's can be purchased at skimfest along with the video. i may be wrong though

[derc a der]

i got my t back at the cap city rail jam but i still don't have the video

[SACTO skim]

i got my t back at the cap city rail jam but i still don't have the video

i took a video of the rangers drive up the the entrance cause they were flying! i thought they were going to plow through the gates or something, and when they took the damn trophies, after that i left and went to go skim at discovery skim louie and them ended up coming a little later so it was cool

[derc a der]

lifetime supply

[Brian Kniveton]

i still need to pay my ticket and get all the shit they took back

[SACTO skim]

how much was your ticket?
after you pay for it do you get all the stuff back or something? did all the vendors get tickets cause i know that red bull did

[derc a der]

i still need to pay my ticket and get all the shit they took back

i still can't believe they took shit from you. specially trophies. thats just bullshit. when i showed up, they were standing right next to the signs saying "CAP CITY RAIL JAM CANCELLED" like they had just performed some big public service. shit made me sick

[SACTO skim]

lol i was going to take the paper that said it was canceled until i saw the rangers were right there, it was kinda weird cause i was going to my car to grab my boards and the rangers came in i was like oooo shit of course the one event i go to the damn rangers come

Yeah, oil on the rail works good.....till sand and dirt gets mixed in, and then it works like sandpaper. Bowling ally wax sounds better or car wax on the bottom of your board. Sometimes while transporting two or more boards, the skimwax gets on the bottom of your board........get that skimwax off bottom!

[SACTO skim]

Ehh ive tried car wax but it started to get a little sticky and it was hella hard to get off after a day, and yeah i hate when sex wax and stuff gets on the bottom i usually just lay mine where only the tops touch but i have pads on both of mine so the wax never touches

agreed. as much fun as rails are, there a pain in the ass to maintain. o and i've found that baby oil works really well when removing skimwax.

Yeah there also heavy not very fun to bring up to your car after a long ass day , and if you want to get rid of all your wax after you get off as much as you can just use some acetone looks like new after,
before-


after-

[derc a der]

thats mighty fine right there. what kinda board is that?

[SACTO skim]

surftech roush medium, i also have a large but i need to sell it its to big, i bought it after my medium hit a rock and made a hugee gash at the top right but i decided to epoxy it AFTER i bought the board... so the large was a waste of 150$
ooo and matt sells the roush pro's at the beach right? thats what some1 said at ground zero

[kyle m]

does the epoxy work well or can you feel a difference when you ride?

[SACTO skim]

nah you dont notice a difference other than the looks, but i dont know about if you use it on the bottom cause mines more on the top and on the rail of the board and it was sanded good

[kyle m]

oh ok. I had to epoxy mine on the bottom. The only thing im really worried about is if it will stick on rails.

[SACTO skim]

it shouldnt if you sand it good

[kyle m]

thanks

The $150 part is the reason why I'm riding a home-made board for learning on. I ding the nose every time I've tried to ollie over something.

I'll buy a good board eventually - a J-Gordon most likely.
