Not Funny

My ski has been broke since late last season but no worries for the early season, skatefilly just got a grinch and it was sweet the two times I got to skate behind it. He tried going with his little brother the other day since the poor little guy was home from school sick. They went to a little pond that you couldn't get to with a car so the stakes in the ground were going to hold it down. But they were no match for the powerful pull of the grinch. It ended up submerged for minutes five days ago on the first pull and has yet to get any attention. Shiit.

Now that the lake is completely unfrozen it was time to launch our crew's secret weapon, with the winch and ski out of commission, it was time to get Gregeo's boat in the water. Went to start it up this morning and........we had the greatest morning set ever. NO! I wish. Instead it wouldn't even turn over and now it has to be taken in.

All our waterwhips are on blocks right now. Anybody any where nearby skatin yet? What about you jacque mehoff or you REDXIII.......what's going on with you boys in KC? somebody, please, give me a shout. I gotta get out! Twisted Evil

that sucks man never rely on those dam stacks they always fail. always have a rope or chain you can strap it to a tree, they never fail.

Man i have sunk my winch three times..It sucks. Just drain the oil, take out the spark plug get all the water out from the cylinder, and dry the air filter out. should work after all that. but my winch has never worked the same after it went swimming.

We still have a couple feet of snow left and about 2 months until I can do any skating.

yea the winch is up and running, and will never sink again. NOte to yourself never let a little dude run your winch when its not on a hitch. Whatever! my little brother stepped up today and ran the winch for me again. It went smooth. IT sux that all my bros have different schedules, my little bro might end up being the man who will always be down to come out. Aint to many of those peeps left for me.

I've staked my winch down plenty of times and had no issues... I use the 36" cement mold stakes that they use in construction. What kind of stakes were you guys using?
