Spring Break

This Spring Break the Mad World riders will be making a trip down to Corpus Christi, TX and Padre Island to do some riding and hang out with some kite surfers. We will keep you guys posted on our adventures, don't you worry!

Crappy Day To Skate :(

Well, the weather had finally warmed up here in Wichita so we went out to try to find a nice place to skate. We drove all around town and had no luck. Each place was either busy, we weren't allowed to skate at, too snowy/wet, or closed!! So we tried out the only garage we could find (and had to pay...bummer) and shredded some concrete for a tiny bit before a good wipe out and some gear breaking. After all the time and trouble we had had for the day we called it quits and headed home to wait for a better day.


Until then here are some pics of from the day!

Here are some pics from a skate sesh on Feb. 3
We went to our favorite parking garage and checked out a few new ones. Nothing beats a roof top view!

DIY Sliding Gloves: PART 2. Victory in pomegranate land

Finally! We made gloves we were happy with. Also, we found an easy way to apply wax to the gloves. This cut down on the amount of damage done to the puck and it smells great. It's like we are boarding through pomegranate land. Thanks sentsy! Haha ;)

DIY Sliding Gloves: PART 1. Trial and error

Our sliding glove project involved a lot of trial and error. It stared out with several sets of gloves and round PVC pipe. We were hoping that the curve in the PVC pipe would elevate our hands enough we could make a less bulky glove. Also, several sliding gloves for sale had finger pucks and flat palm pieces, but grabs were more difficult. We wanted it all!! Here are some pics of the process. While making the gloves we went to try them out to see where adjustments needed to be made. The first couple sets of gloves stuck to the pavement causing a choppy ride or just tossed you off the board. You can watch us try out the gloves on the videos page.
