I finally got around to getting the pix out of my cheezo kid's camera. The
one of Mark was shot without looking, between my legs with the camera
upside down. That white chevron on the pavement means I'm either hitting
a bad spot or about to. Other pic shows our shanty camp.
Benetton sold Rollerblade to Technica. $20 Mil, plus some share of
profits for the next 5 years. They sold 'em Nordica for $40 Mil last
month.

Increadable! I will be interesting to see what Technica does with the rollerblade line, I hope nothing. Actually 20 mil and 40 mil seems kind of cheap,...

Warren I'm interested in purchasing 5 wheel 84 mm frames from Maple. What do you think about the Diamond 84 13.3" farmes. Is it the best choice for 5 wheel 84...
... It's the one I'm leaning toward. Everyone who has the 80mm version of that frame just loves it. The other thing I was thinking of is the 13.5" Sure-Grip...
Just to caution you about the infernos, they are a single-void aluminum frame, and not very stiff at all. Mine came on the entry-level Shark Attack package,...

No, I just bought my skates to get started with distance speed skating. I was told by a previous owner of inferno frames that his frames flexed, so he ...
... Several of us are using them. I think I do have a problem with them that I don't think is related to frame flex. But I don't know whether I am also...
The flex I was talking about is pinching the very toe end of the frame between two fingers. I compared a Bont Inferno with the Bont Sniper, and the Sniper...
