32" is what and 8" board's length should be. I recently cracked my board, so I bought a back-up from a shop who claims their shop boards are DLX wood. It's 8.25 and gotta be 31" long bc it looks like a chode. But it should be a big deal.

the worst things about a board are when the board is at least a 8.25 and its less than 32 in length, walkers first pro board is perfect, the 8.38 by 32.5 or whatever, i have it set up right now ready to go hahaha

I don't know if you even have a say in this, but you should try to do something about getting Ryan Lay fully am on a board company. I heard he's flow for Enjoi but he's killing it as hard as lots of pros are.

Here's his newest part if you haven't seen it

I wish there was something I could do for Mr. Lay. He is comparable to Austin Gillette in my eyes! The dude is simply amazing on a skateboard. I thought he was on Rasa Libre.

Got any old Duffs stickers that you don't want anymore? (I'm a dorky collector because its cheaper than shoes, and boards even though I have a few tacked up on the wall)

Vancouver is the best place in the world!!! Yes, I've been there many times.

Here's a funny story for ya: One year during the Slam City Jam I drove my little compact rental car to Stanley Park at the end of Robson St. Well, I went very deep into the park anticipating a relaxing couple of hours to myself. Once I found a suitable place to chill I rushed out of the car, and what did I do?  I locked the darn keys in the car. 
Normally this wouldn't have been that big of a deal but when you're in the middle of a forrest with no cell phone and not many people around, it becomes a true adventure. An adventure that turned into a 5 hour ordeal.
Eventually, after finding somebody who was willing to let me use their phone long enough to guild the tow truck driver step by step to my location.

Vancouver is a place I've considered moving to. Actually Vancouver Island. Good memories for me in your awesome city  ;D

On a different note, big ups to S&J sales out there! Good to see you guys at Agenda.....

I've been wondering this for a while. Did the song in Walkers new part have a sentimental message behind it? Since his "Welcome to Organika" video part used the same band, was it meant as like a whole circle sort of thing, like where he is at now is where he began, Organika? I don't know if I am thinking to much into this or whatever but it is just one of my thoughts.
