They get an A for using Cluster for the new Tom Knox part. I liked it. <br /><br />I've pondered how cold is too cold to skate for a while now. My conclusion is that temperature doesn't matter as much. Wind, sun, and precipitation are much bigger factors. I believe humidity and barometric pressure are also relevant, but I haven't figured that out yet. I was fine skating in the 20s last winter. No wind is maybe the biggest element. They skate every day in California so I see no reason to not do that in NY. <br /><br />Also for cold weather skating, you aren't going to be out there long and it helps to be some degree of competent on board. This way you can bang out a few tricks, have fun, and feel good about yourself in the freezing cold. Learning to skate in the cold is asking for misery. I don't bother with much special gear - a couple layers and a sweatshirt, heavier jeans. Hat and gloves obviously. Dark colors are good because if it is sunny, you'll be warmer. <br /><br />Is this the same Front or was there another one?<br /><br />https://vertisdead.blogspot.com/2010/08/fred-gall-4.htmlJustinhttp://vertisdead.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
