Recently there has been a lot of buzz around the internet about the new frame by Ground Control. Initially this frame was seen on the NIMH myspace page when Brian Shima was testing the new skates (this post can be found HERE). Then the frame was seen on the Razor website (which can be found HERE).

-They say it is a frame in time for Christmas

- Fits 60mm wheels

Canadian Roll Gets Official

I recently posted up that we are expanding the website, with that news comes the addition of getting an official domain name. From now on you will be able to go to Canadianroll.ca and access the website, rather then using the former address. I have als added a search engine, so if people want to find specific articles it will now be easier.

**Editors note: A big thanks goes out to Brian Lofgren who set this whole thing up.**
