International shipping

Welcome to the blog,
Good to see a comment from the public. The international shipping is coming along still loading products on and sorting out the rates and carrier. There are a couple of carriers to deal with and reading through all the terms and conditions is a tough thing!. However it has to be done. What I am trying to do is set it up so we make just the costs of the shipping back, we are not looking to make money from the freight. I think at this point we have to provide a good service so it looks like we will go with the Fed Ex as the brand is world wide and well known, it might cost a bit more but we think that will be worth it. For your piece of mind and ours.

You will see on the web site when you click on a product there will be a green and black notice indicating that international shipping is available on this product. Then you add to cart and go to checkout and put in your details, the drop down box with the countries listed will indicate if it ships to your country. Then you just follow the instructions  and  it will work out the shipping cost and add it to the total.  So head onto the site and cruise around, there are so pretty trick tubes on there.

On another note Damo pulled his first win in seniors last Saturday night, riding the 250 two stroke. He finished the night in second overall and also had a couple of hit outs on the big 450, securing two second places.

That's all for now check out the site and like us, tell your friends and ride those tubes!

Riders at heart

Welcome to the Blog,
Here at skituberiders.com we are riders at heart. True to that we can't ride our tubes everyday, we can't even get out there on the water every weekend, so we have to do something else on the weekends. We used to ride Motocross/Enduro's but we don't anymore due to a few too many broken bones. The next best thing to ride that's not on water but still on the dirt is a Mountain bike! So since we don't ride Moto's any more we stepped up from the training Mountain bike to a cross country Mountain bike ready for racing. Now getting to the point it was our first race on Sunday round three of the Summer series and man did that open up our eyes, these boys are fit and fast. What an experience, some great trails great support and a well run event that was on time, and this is only the warm up to the title events. We will be doing some more of them.

A little news on the international supplier, the red tape is done and we should have an announcement in the next week regarding the supply to the rest of the world, where that will be and what products will be up on the web site ASAP.

Also our rider in Motocross Damon Hill has now got his gear sorted for the up coming season, we have just finished the design for the bikes graphics, and Damo is currently testing the bike after the suspension , engine and exhaust modifications. we will post some pics as soon as we have them.

Finally I was surfing the web and found this web site Extreme Skipping, sort gives you the impression of skipping like a Boxer would skip, but it has a twist.

Remember at skituberiders.com "we don't just sell we ride em"

Where is that supplier

Welcome to the blog,
We are still waiting on the red tape for the international supplier, man I am hanging to get our hands on some of these new tubes. we are keen as mustard to start putting these things through their paces to give them a rating. We are still working on that process but have a few ideas.

When testing we want to rate them for all types of users, novices to experts, yougins to the more mature riders. Because we know there are some gnarly young little dudes out there and some big timid dudes as well. If we rated them on an extreme rating we would have to define what extreme was. That could depend on the tube itself, the speed, the water and many other factors. We would also be looking at comfort, or ergonomics, how they feel and ride.Lastly we would want to rate the overall product its impact, the wow factor and of cource the construction of them. So as you can see it's going to be a challenge to make this worth while, stay in touch with the progress, and don't forget if your in the USA get your tubes today help us to help team Ampd enterprises/skituberiders.com Moto race this year cause "we don't just sell em we ride em".

Finally we are happy to say we have now started a link page so check that out at the site also.
