Nimh Review by Lui Summer
2008-01-10 12:46 durrenbe@yahoo.com (David Durrenberger)
When I first saw the Nimh skates I really liked its colours. It is a simple black skate with golden highlights. The Nimh skins have got quite a lot of details and are sewn very well. So you don’t have to worry about ripping your skins too fast.
If you take the boot out of [...]

Bont Unveils the G4
2008-01-10 23:39
Australian skate maker claims its new wheel is the world's fastest.
Help In Danny's Quest, Lots Of Videos, Bont's G4, Arndt's Great Practice, Musculation, Mexico Ice, Adjustable Wheels
2008-01-11 08:27 Peter Doucet Help In Danny's Quest: Danny Daniels is currently skating across America. According to his latest map, he's currently South-West or Phoenix, AZ, and I like this quote from his blog which he is using to chronicle his journey; 'We skated up I-8 to the next rest stop on the smoothest shoulder I have found to date. It was like black glass'. Danny needs help with his journey; I received this important message from Glenn Koshi;'Hi All,
I've kind of taken it upon myself to try and help Danny out in his quest to skate across America. I've not met Danny and his wife in person yet, but they sure seem like great representatives for our sport. You can read his blog here: Blog
All the planning in the world can't make up for a lack in funds. Danny is currently nearing Tuscon, and funds are getting low. LET'S NOT LET THIS JOURNEY END because of a lack of funds. After all, how often is it that we find someone willing to skate 2500+ miles?
If you are not one who trusts sending donations via the internet, I can take your donations also, via credit card, and I'll forward directly to the Dannels. Just email me at glenn at bont dot com.
Please, pass this link to all you know. $5 here and $10 there will add up.
Thank you,
Glenn'. Woahoa, now that I clicked around Bont's forum, I noticed Glenn put up the exact same message from above in Danny, Trans-US Skate. Thank goodness for copy and pasting, otherwise he would have had to type that all over again!
The next two videos come from Italy. I hope you check them out because they're good. Check out Italy National Team 2008- that pace line is sweet and you get to see the Italian national team doing all sorts of stuff on ice, inside, and outside. Oh, and I like the 3rd song- a good Canadian band Nickelback from Alberta. The 2nd video is Italy Sprint Champs 2008-
Arndt's Great Practice: Aaron's Arndt's latest post is called Great Practice.... He says '...we got straight into relays, and after just a bit of practice, we got into a relay pyramid (3×1,3×2,2×3,1×5,2×3,3×2,3×1) which was really, really tough, but absolutely great at the same time... There were still a few crashes (actually I lost count), but as far as I know there were no (significant) injuries. I know at one point, Jade and I went down and crashed simultaneously into the wall after Deano dove up the inside underneath Jesse who was passing tight a little earlier. I bet it looked way cool, and I wish I had that video...'.
Musculation: Roller En Ligne has an article about Musculation- it's called La musculation: Comment l'utiliser en roller. If you can read French, you can then read it. I put a part of the article through a translation, and this is what came out; 'It is not only the prerogative of the other sports only 'to raise cast iron'. Like any sports activity, the practice of the roller in competition requires to include muscular reinforcement with the drives. Still is necessary it to advisedly use the musculation in its preparation...'. Hmm. The article talks about plyometrics, power, and explosiveness.
Mexico Ice: While I was on the rowing machine today at the YMCA, I noticed that one of the (many) Toronto news stations was showing a report on an ice skating rink and how some sort of record was broken- I think it's the most # of people holding hands while skating, something like 246 people needed 5 tries to succeed. As I was watching, I dawned on me that the outdoor skating rink looked vaguely familiar.
I thought and I thought while I rowed and rowed. I tried to remember.
Well there so happens to be some recent news about that rink in Mexico City- see Speedskating on Ice in Mexcio City for more; 'Hola amigas & amigos! Team Mexico once again arrives in Mexico city for the final days of the giant ice rink. On Saturday evening the city officials will host a gala, grand scale event, and the team will be skating for the crowds as part of the closing ceremonies, then the ice will melt under the warm sun.
This has been a dream beyond the expected to be invited for both opening & closing ceremonies to partake in the historic moment in the speedskating history of Mexico.
As I look from the roof top cafe locals gather an line up to get on the ice - it gets packed out during the day. Smiles, laughter, old, young - all gather to try the sport. from speaking with locals, this rink has been a very positive experience for the community, despite some pessimistic views from groups indicating that $1.5 mil could be spent better elsewhere. What they do not understand is that the city officials and organizers have retained sponsors to support the costs of the rink and it's 1-2 months of operation. The result is worth well beyond that figure!...'.
