Hi,
I really want to have ago at powerbocking before getting some.
Would any of you be willing to let me have a go on yours?
I live in downend but have a car so can meet anywhere in or near Bristol.
How far can you run or walk in them before you need to stop/they start hurting etc?

I just got some pro jumps, iv been wobbling about bradley stoke for about a week now, anyone round here go out often? or any good? i think i got springs which are too stiff lol

never seen anyone about on any and im usually round winterbourne/yate/emmersons sorta way

Bbmthbloke · « **Reply #11 on:** December 07, 2009, 05:05:05 PM »

Arun, try doing a search on the towns near you. peeps have come and gone near you. but keep 'missing rach other'

have s try 'rounding them up' and getting the critical mass for meets.

this seems to have been done with sucess in the north east and soth west of l8

but you cant go 2 far wrong popping over to cardiff.

but atleast hang around here for a few weeks.... always some1 your way gets a pair as a chrimbo pressy

das about the best i can suggest at mo

Hi There,

I'm just learning, and I'm just south of Bath so not to far away. Travelling is no problem for me.

Graham.

rawrk · « **Reply #13 on:** February 26, 2010, 09:06:58 PM »

im in Clifton Down quite often if you'd like to meet up. (:

Bbmthbloke · « **Reply #14 on:** February 26, 2010, 09:07:41 PM »

Graham your best bet is prob to hit cardiff, may not advertise here ( luckily dont need 2) but the welsh bockers r v active there.

its just vv frustrating the weathwer at mo...even here in south 50 % of outdoor meets r cancelling due to weather

Also not advertising much here r the riser raptors , mainly in plymouth. they will have new website v soon
