ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

OK, been here a couple of weeks and just awaiting my board and gloves in the mail. I'm looking for some like minded folks to skate with. Preferably those who want to slide but I'm up for a bit of all skateboarding antics.

I'm in Semaphore, Adelaide and have wheels (in garage) so will be able to get places. Even if you can't meet up if anyone can suggest a hill spot that I'm unlikely to get arrested on (reading post on corkscrew Road) that would be swell. Ultimately I'm looking for a friendly slide crew to share some stoke with.

I've seen plenty of boarders about so don't be shy

Have you been to hills already? I would like to know so that I can plan where I could spend my vacation as well. I reckon, there are a lot of places somewhere in Melbourne.

Hi Phillip, I live in West Lakes, Adelaide and like skating. I am not an expert, still learning. I like sliding and cruising and meeting people that enjoy longboarding. My name is Carlos, you can call me 0401167750
Hello SkyHigh no I haven't been to Adelaide hills my wife has and says I will love it.

West lakes ain't to far. I'm now in Semaphore South. Just texted you by the way so you should have my number now.

All the best

Phil - the ex experts are the expertise

So, Carlos and I have met and been skating together since, erm, October (looking at this thread!). We have been skating about once a week (sometimes twice) but I really need to ramp this up a little.

I skate to and from work but its not the same as sharing some stoke and trying new things so...... PLEASE, (big please) can anyone (young, old, fat, thin, girl, boy, man, woman) in Adelaide (remembering that I now have a car) who enjoys longboarding or skating of any kind, beginner, expert, novice, GET IN TOUCH.

I have seen groups (sadly whilst on foot), spoken to a few timid individuals and as yet we are still only 2 strong. Adelaide show yourself to this thread!

 

Some people are addicted to crack, I am addicted to longboarding. Go figure ....

Iree Sweet Beet,

 

Thanks dude - I left my phone at home today but will ring you when I get in at 5 ish. I can definately help with the slide thing!

 

I can't believe my luck, 4 of you!! yeah! Those quiet spots sound good for neighbourhood friendlyness.

Hey Beet, sorry things have been a bit quiet on the Pt Willy front. I'll let you know the next time we're there!
Sweet - these look great - not to steep (but then you can't always tell from pictures) and left and right turns are great for practicing slides around corners - thanks for the pictures - see you soon

sweet beet said:

Yep - i never used to slide but its worth learning.

 

I can take a day off but don't get paid as im a contractor - will definately take a few of though. Evenings and weekend are best - whats ur postcode - just need to find out how far it is to drive to yours or the hills in question.

 

Does your boy have slide gloves? will need 'em.

cool nanas, links is a good place to practice.

just before that power box in extreme left of pic, there is a big sweeper goin right ..is fairly steep and very fast..my lad had big toeside get off at bottom... didnt make it round the corner, jumped the curb and bailed it into the rough..he went from the top, rush of blood!  was very scary...thats the point i decided we all need to learn to slide, pronto and assess the risk better.

the other thing is ..i have some days free thru work week, usually a wednesday, thursday or friday depending on work if you can get out at all.

Haha, you lot are into it! Hope you've recovered after the loss of your undies.. and lucky about the sprain rather than a break.

 

Have you guys got slide gloves yet? I'll have to hook you all up with Slippery Dip pucks next time we meet. They're an essential part of longboarding!

sweet beet said:

cheers benny

...no dramas.. school just gone back this week anyways..we've been a little quiet this past week as result..the other hold up has been.. i got some major gravel rash to the right buttock, wrecked my fave undies too.. and not ferggit'n, we thought the big lad broke his wrist on sunday night, riding longboard to skatepark on flat, ha !   xray monday, sprain only fortunately.

all recovered ...we attack the links after scholistication tonite.

Ok you are 2 hours ish away, and my car is shite. Erm, meeting half way sounds good but I love the look of those slopes in to pictures so will have to come down your way too.

Belair is good but you need to walk in to avoid the car fees. Belair surface is not to good in places either.

 

I am definately up for it - if only I had a better car. Does anyone in your crew live closer? (posible meet up and get lift).

 

Crackheads - no probs just get a little bit of crack on a stick and throw it over the bushes - they'll be there for hours looking for it! Joke

 

Hills look good on google terrain map down your way - cant wait ...

yer ..we all got gloves.

i am a contractor too, earthmoving/landscaping. i know wot u mean.. no work no moolah..sucks sometimes

post code is 5203..fair trek from semaphore.

we can meet you in and around the hills closer to you, keen to try different roads, belair nat park looks good, be quieter midweek.

there is alot of new subbo work happening around sheidow park, morphettvale, seaford and  mount barker is ready to go bugfuck building wise, all hilly..i even looked at colonades shopping centre car park.. that would be fun, but you would need protection from the crackheads at night..gets a bit nasty, and security would be heavy.

see wot works best, keep in touch

 

hey guys!

me n a mate have been looking for more crew to skate with for a while now n i live in the unly area so right a bout slap bang in between the two! would be quite keen for an exploratory session in the hills! seeing as me n my mate both have cars shuttles sound like they would be a breeze!

fone number is 0433333115 (no its not fake just allot of 3s!)
