So, I've taken this task upon myself this year. Here are the rules:

-Comment 'I'm in' if you want to take park.
-PM me your address, and what you will send. Your name will be picked out of a hat at random along with a partner.
-Deadline is 15th December.
-When you get your address, most likely on the 15/16th, send your item ASAP
-You will be matched with someone in your country, and if there are not partners in your country I'll find someone as close as I can. You will also be matched depending on the value of what you send.
-Home made things are not advised, unless they are really good.
- Send decks, Wheels, tuned trucks, tape packs etc.
-Do not send something shitty, such as a sticker, or pivot cups.
-Anyone with a -1 or no references on FBHQ sends last.

Any other ideas for rules, just comment.
happy

Only if it's amazingly good.



And, send decks, wheels, packs of tape, wide trucks etc...

I'd like to take place but all I can really spare is just one deck...

Is that okay or should I not bother?

I'm in happy

and max you should be too, last year on FFI I just sent a deck I got free (back then I only had like 4 decks to my name, not the 45 I have now, haha) and a homemade ledge. send what you can, as long as its not like stickers, or a set of china trucks, then its okay. Its about getting something, not getting loads happy

I'm in happy

Last year on here Jose got a Yellowood Bene B6 blank that I hope he still uses to this day. LOL
That was a lot of fun good memories.

But yeah it's true like Kerry said it wasn't so much what you got it was sharing among folks I got to know that made me feel right at home. happy

I do have to say the best part was watching the videos and seeing the pics of what everybody got. Not a single bad gift in sight. I would like to participate on the FFI one too. happy

Is it up yet?

I'm in happy but last postal dates for Christmas are 17th for 2nd class, and 20th for 1st. So I think a rule must be 1st class only? happy

I was thinking possibly along the lines of a deck and some stickers as well as maybe some special stuff I've made.

If that's cool then I'm in.

errebody PM me your adress.

@ Danny, I don't that'll be a rule, but it's advised. Also, if we have people with -1s/no +1s sending first then it'll probable end up with it coming after christmas for some people :/. But, if you can, send ASAP once you have your address, first class is best.

alright Alex happy also, people aren't gonna be paired are they? for example
person A sends to person B,
and person B sends to person A,

it'd be better if each person sent to a different person, for example
A to B, B to C, C to D
and so on,
if you were already planning to do it like that, alright happy haha, idk

Ah. This sounds fun. I would have joined if I was still in the UK. Gets a bit hard for me to do in China.

Anyway, one suggestion for you: You need to set some kind of rough value the the things people get and send will vary by quite a lot.

only reason im not gonna do this, is cos i'll be pissed when i receive an old tech deck or something from a 12 yr old.

Just an idea, but maybe everyone could PM Alex what they're gonna send. and then Alex could match people up, by 'gift worth'.


i dunno...

I agree, like have everyone confirm what they are sending with Alex then he can pick people that have offered about the same. It's allot of work for Alex but I'm pretty sure everyone would appreciate it bunches.

That would be good, you are right. I am willing to send someone something which i worked on for quite a long while and i wouldn't be too happy if i send it to some little kid who will not even know how to use it.


Unless that is fixed, i back out.

I think my suggestion would be just fine. Alex if you need help or don't feel like organizing I'll step forward and do it to make sure everyone gets something close to equal value.
