u gyz should come to where i skate all the time becuase its fuckin sweet as... its like fitzy but steeper and more turns. Its about a 60-70 kph run. :):):)
Not bad. Which bit is the 60-70kph? From what I can see from google map street view, it could be the bottom left bit with the speed bump. Have you actually hit 70 there? I find it freaky to hit 70 in a residential area.
Lol iv only hit fifty but only once because of cars, but on the left of the pic it goes downhill from there... And when u go from the top into the first left corner it is sweeet.
And the 65-70 bit is the start and straight down to that little round about... And the hill where u turn right from the start on the left side of the pic. And that hairpin corner at the top right is amazing. It's about 40 down a hill that's not shown in the pic into that corner at about 45-50.
hey guys i am thinking about holding a downhill race some time in the future would any of you come ?( bug sent me here, said some of you could help me improve my downhill skills but yeah)
where abouts do u plan on holding this race? We've talked about holding a race for a while but finding a good place to have it is hard. Do you come to the city often? It's pretty hard for all of us to go down to your area, but if the hills are sweet, we'll definitely make the effort to go down
cam i would be down to race me thinks, i reckon you might be in more of a area where an outlaw would be doable and permits might be a touch easier to get for an event, i know there are some nice hills out that way so i reckon it would be a good event, definently got to be a weekend race though
i like your idea, those who are in uni or are groms, me and the brother are thinking of hitting melton drains one arvo this week to score some mega ditch action
those who are up for a massive skate mission this week let me know, its going to take atleast half an hour of distance skating to get there... BUT if you have ever hit melton drains you will understand how epic the place is, if you think springvale is epic you have no idea
its about an hour all up (which makes it just as close as most of the DH action in melb) but seriously, go look at the pictures of the place and just look how gnar it is, i mean it might be a bitch to get to but it is so so so worth it
for those who are bored or garages... ching, i and some others will be hitting the leicester st. roundabout. =] its a fun hill with a roundabout in the middle, and no traffic at night. (not more than flinders anyway) Great place to practice sliding.
if it doesn't rain of course... 0421832776
not meaning to steal the crew or anything nippon, just need a change of scenery =]
i still don't understand what's so great about a roundabout... What do u do with it on a longboard? Who are some others? If you've actually got people other than you and ching, then I might join
yeah i am gonna go if its dry, it sounds like a sick little run, i just spoke to nip and he is gonna come down too with me and jesse. if it rains i will just go 300 latrobe
