Northshore Inline Marathon
Submitted by halightw on Sat, 2006-09-16 16:57.For the first time in it's history the NSIM was less than dry. It started raining in the early morning and made the course a little more challenging. Chris Creveling was the overall winner in the Men's race and Jilleanne Rookard for the Women. Even with the rain there were relatively few major injuries (myself being one with a dislocated shoulder around mile 20). See full results here.

Bont announces dual durometer wheel
Submitted by halightw on Fri, 2006-06-16 20:48.Bont today announced the availability of a new wheel which they have been working on for 2 years with MPC wheels. This Mtec wheel is unique in that it is a dual durometer wheel with two distinct layers of urethane. 62A (very soft!) inner and 84A (hard) on the outside. This is claimed to give the skater excellent grip and a great roll. Team Bont’s Luca Presti won the 500m on the track at the inline world championships in Italy using these wheels.
