Calling all Sutherland Shire longboarders...
Our mighty Southside crew has a population of three*, weather permitting. (If it rains i stay home). Our conversations have become stale and our stalefish even stale... er.
We have a local skate shop that stocks o'tangs. Now, unless there are a bunch of kids getting wheel bite on z flex's all over the place, i've always figured that there were more fans of the long skate out there...
Anyway, time for a short story...
Towards the end of last year James and myself were slashing a local hill when a bunch of grommets with boards, lids and gloves rocked up. - Kids had some skills. James and myself were stoked with the session and decided to get some shorter shorts, better tans and do it all again another day.
Now heres the thing, during the session i mentioned ASRA, SCBS and how good i am at 180's atleast 30 times and it seemed they were across it, i'm sure a couple of em' were even ASRA members.
I like stories. Righto then, here's the pointy bit: Sutherland Shire longboarders - show yourselves fools... i want to see numbers before i go ahead and create an awesome group for all three* of us.
*Southside crew population is actually two. Fitz has been added just incase he participates in the near future... but mostly to bump the numbers up a bit.

I will partially agree with you Bugs. Even though Cronulla had more surfers back in the 70's than Newy has now. There is something cute about those little Hobits that inhabit the shire.
Bugs said:I spent my first18 years in the Shire (Sylvania), so you can add me even though my Shire passport has expired and I can no longer return. Like BJ I also had a fibreglass deck with urethane wheels and a home made wooden tail block.
But face it, the Shire is a place to leave not live.

Nearly forgot about Scotto from Sylvania!
Although he's like me and doesn't get much time to skate

Any of you guys skated Boomerang Ave Lilli Pilli?
We use to ride our Billy carts down that road and skate the grass.
Has a right hand turn at the bottom. Maybe you could slide it to survive. LOL.

If you guys are rolling in of Lilli Pilli Pt Rd and tucking down Boomerang and making the turn at the bottom, you have my respect.
I just google mapped it. Looked at street view. and it is as steep as I remember as a grom.
I would love to see a vid if it!
