    Hey Rowan, welcome to ASRA.

    Where abouts do you ride in Adelaide?

    I ride all over the place, basically any hill with good road surface. But I mainly ride at ‘Eagle on the hill’ with the crew.

    Just come out to eagle to check it out and meet everyone some time, we’re not going to force you to do it. They are 3 sections to eagle, top, middle and bottom. Most of the crew just session the middle section which is from the MTB car park and is the easiest. It’s only when you do the whole run it becomes a bit scary.

    is there any flex at all in the board?? It looks like a pretty sweet deck. What do you use it for?? Freeride?? I've a Hellcat now that I use for dh and a fsu deck as well. But since my Hellcat my fsu has just been sitting on the rack!

    still trying to figure out what we are doing Saturday night. so not sure. either way its gonna be pretty difficult. we won't be finished until about 1 or 2am if all goes to plan, meaning you'll have no way of getting home (sorry but i won't have time to drive you home into the hills).
    so unless you can get picked up from the city at around 11ish it probably won't happen.

    Hey, how long have you been skating? Your board looks pretty nice, haven't seen Rayne Hustler before, looks like a sick carver.

    You hit Linden much? Beware, I think locals are getting really pissed off with all the longboarders there, one tailgated me while I was on the board lol.
  • Jonty

    Yeah, I don't like Linden for that reason, the runoff isn't flat really. But if your carve you can loose enough speed. The carpark is at the bottom of linden, it's just a flat carpark that you can use as extra run-off, so if you are still going fast you can pull into that and try and slide to stop or something. I usually have lost my speed by the time I get there though.

    Linden has a fair bit of traffic and locals get pissed, but it's easier to get to than going out to Brown Hill Creek or anything.

    I was gonna go today, but I stayed home to eat and watch football.
