.........Go Skateboarding day --- June 21st -- TBA. Go Skateboarding Day is on Saturday this year so the weekend will be big!! I need some volunteers to help me out, talk to some businesses (ex. Pepsi, Coke) , local bands, and churches to get involved in Go Skateboarding Day. Lets make it big!!
...........Komen Skate-A- Thon----- The Komen (breast cancer) running race attracts over 2000 runners and spectators and this year I'm planning on having a skate-a-thon which will be 3.1 miles (5k) race along the smooth Kanawha Boulevard pavement. There will be two classes. Regular new school skateboard class for 17 and under and 18 and over longboard(Old School) class. Hopefully this race will happen, I will know as soon as the director of the Komen Race contacts me. To get in shape for the skate-a-thon, I highly recommend Skogging. Skogging is a funny word but what it means is skateboard jogging. You alternate pushing legs so you don't tire the muscles in your pushing leg(most skateboarders push with one leg) . To learn more on Skogging , check out http://www.skogging.com/ . Skogging was invented by 1970's pro skateboarder Chris Yandall and Chris is still active in Skogging and slalom racing. He is promoting his new Skogging board and he is even coming out with a new Skogging shoe. Chris has been known to travel over 100 miles in one day by using his Skogging technique. As Chris would say "Cut the Jive and Jog"
