AM Wing, NROC Ideas, Crashes & Falls, 2008 WIC Updates, Ice in Copenhagen & Mexico City, PB's Training Pics

AM Wing: The article Am-Wing, Adams Inline Announce New Wheels is, well, self explanatory. I like this part; 'The wheel is designed for skating on asphalt, the most common outdoor surface in North America, and it is built to carry the weight of larger skaters'. What are they implying? Hehehe. It's kinda funny & cute...

NROC Ideas: The Inline Planet's National Roller Cup seems to be picking up steam- see NROC - Share Your Ideas for Race Series.


Crashes & Falls: I seem to have my site fixated on videos that feature crashes and falls- the video Crash Course cycles through long and short track falls over and over with different shots and perspectives. The fall in Gross Gerau Crashes '07! looks like it's gotta hurt! And then there's Tyler's Fall in Heerenveen- see him flip over the mats! Eek!




2008 WIC Updates: The thread World Cup Topics for 2008 keeps on pumping out information and news on the 2008 World Inline Cup as the new season approaches- Bill Begg writes 'Lets stop the Guessing games, these are the hot transfers, according to reliable sources, Luca Saggioratto to Rollerblade.

Elio Cuncu to Powerslide Alessi, along with Guyader, Francolini, Amabili & Galliazzo.

Luca Presti still without a team.

Rumours of a big Stadler team out of Germany.

Pier Davide Romanilooking for a team, what has happened to TNT.

Tomas Boucher been linked with both Zepto & World Inline center, many consider, the best of Tomas has yet to be seen, possibly suffering the fate of a fall guy,from previous seasons
'.

Ice in Copenhagen & Mexico City: Speedskating-online has a new section called Spot news. The latest addition is called Ice in Copenhagen.
