Hey Nathan i think we should head to the mountain on the 20/21 and just see whats going on there !!~ I know its the MG car club that runs it and they are a bunch off old farts BUT we might get something out off itt !!!! YEP well sugarloaf is a rough ass pebbly old road now they have just redone the bottom FLAT section but its old stuff on the hill !! HILL IS big steep very fast exellerating hill much like bathurst .. ive done it luge and buttboard <... But never standup mate its just to rough and shitty !! ill take you there next time you are down !!!! Cya next weekend mate .. looks like this weekends a wash out !!!
Was great to meet all the crew. I am still Grinning everytime i think about that ditch, which has been quite a lot. Would be funny to know who actually had the most runs and how many it was. i know I had heaps.
Love your decks, awesome to watch you take the home grown stick to the big boys
Hey mate, it was a cracking weekend down there! - Met heaps of cool people, didn't think i'd meet anyone living that close to my home town though. That was unreal!
- Pretty busy with work and shit like that here at Sydney at this end of the year, but i spend alot of time up there around xmas seeing my oldies and catching up with mates.(Although i imagine thats when all the holiday houses fill up out at tallwoods..? - Roads could be a bit busy)
I'll take a skateboard or three up there with me anyway, so i'll organise something with you for sure. All of my other mates surf, or roll around at the park in Forster so i'd be keen as to bomb some hills at the estate.
hey mate yeh it does look a little rough and 600 m is a quick run ! was worth a look though mate if we seek we shall find THE SAHIT ... so you getting ready for the last slalom race its gunna be fast !
YOU WANT THAT BOARD OFF JACKO ??? he said you have first option ! 120 mmm ill give him 100 $
my money would be better spent at the NATHANS carbon store i think !! lol
ring me soon mate and we can drive down to sydney together !!
I was up Forster this weekend for a mates wedding. Skated Palms Estate at One mile beach. In short, its really fun. They have started building up on the hill behind the Jehovah's Witnesses joint. Hardly any houses, smooth as surface. - Only sussed it out for about 10 mins, but found a great corner. I'd post a vid but its only really short. If you are in town and have your board in the car check it out.
I know the left hander you are talking about - it would be quick.. haven't skated over that side either. I'd like to hit up the section of K. drive that wraps down to the beach. Roads a bit rough though.
I'll post the vid of where i skated today. - then you'll know where it is. Vid doesn't do it justice. (20 sec's long from my phone.) It was so fun. You can aim uphill and carve hard into the corner.
Cheers mate! - So that was the section you were talking about - sorry man, got all confused there for a bit! Yeah, wanted to keep going down the hill and hook into that next bit... but because i had limited time i was stopping every time and running back up! Only got about 5 runs in then bailed back to Sydney. Spent too long trying to skate the park at Tuncurry. Key word - trying. I couldn't get enough speed up on that board to get a run going. The grom's were spinning out though, i don't think ant of them had seen a dervish before... so i guess that was cool.
yeh i got heaps from all year except the last race... the old skool team were covering that so im gonna be getting footage off them from that race (unable to sell it though) but yeh i can scrounge up all my footage from the year and burn it to a disk for ya... how much ya talkin bout?
hey mate, i was searching through a forum and i saw that you have been to the hill climb near Noosa, how long ago was that?
because a few of us have been recently and three quaters of the road has been resurfaced.
Ohh true man, okk yer we have a hill climb up at the sunny coast and it's a bout 2km long and smooth road. Just not as fast as you would want.
where abouts is that big massive concrete ditch thing?
Faaark Nathan. 5 times over the high side! - Bet you are still feeling sore! I'm nursing a few injuries myself. Still got a sore foot from a the ditch race at Canberra. - No joke! I hope that area (Palms Estate) is still relatively quiet over Chrissie... I'm pretty keen to do a bit of riding around there.
Hey, you got a downhill set up too then i take it? What are you riding? I just purchased an 08 Evo with smokies. Took it around to Fitz's place last night and got him to put some bumper bars on it (I'm a bit precious with my gear) so now i've got the board sorted... but am missing the full face and leathers. Trying to sort it asap but its proving difficult. Are you coming down for the Western Sydney shootout thing..?
- Also, did you end up getting the kalahanis off Ado? Thats where i got the Evo etc from.
Hey mate, in town for a bit (Back to Sydo for News Years) so should catch up for a roll. I'm pretty keen to check out Tallwoods.
Been here since Sat Night but haven't skated yet because theres been a few waves about. Anyway give us a shout when you are free - 0417 037 161.
nice photos! you have some really cool locations to shoot for our film i recon, if you want to share them with us, show us around and be a part of the movie. Just let me know!
Thats sick man. I wish i had more time to hit it up. Such an awesome spot to dial in a set-up. Speaking of set-up's that would of been fairly mental on your board. - You must of been just hanging in there on those wheels!
Be great to get a few riders up that way for a day trip. Could do speed runs on that large hill then head to the dipper and try and take on the left hander up the other side from the top.
Cheers for taking me up there that day man. Still kicking myself for not taking a camera.
PAVEL split! that sucks hope they warranty it !!!
saying that ive still got a EVO that delaimed first ride ( that they wont replace ) and a shit load off standard decks that feel apart first ride !! that havnt been warrantied either !!
Seems overseas companies dont give a shit about OZ !!
Thats one resean im riding FSU build here to handle heat difference and OUR harsh conditions !!
iff you got it from ADO im sure he will try and help !
ha ha yeah that was me i get bit excited. and i was hassleing my mate about how good at air guitar and drums i am! she thinks other wise.bitch. i saw them on sunday in sydney as well. fucking rad.
Hey Nathan! I still havn't forgotten your message about central coast spots haha. Check out the discussion I just posted. We'll finally be hittin the area in early April then we'll try and get as many guys as we can up North for a HUGE sesh in Brisbane and the Goldie. Get back to me! My number is 0421 328 841.
Hey Nath, I'm in Forster for four days, Leaving tonight. Going to bring my slalom board and a few cones and maybe my downhill board. Give me a ring if you are about - 0417 037 161. Could end up spending heaps of time in the water but it would be sick to catch up for a roll in between. Check ya
Kathy here, I have a few pics from CC at Sidonia. Here is one of you and Stephen D. I'll have a look and pick out some others. If you would like higher res, I'll put them on a CD.
cheers

Thats a sick looking bit of road Nathan, next time I'm up lets try and find some time to suss it out. Looks like its pretty long. Who did you roll it with.. - don't tell me it was a solo mission when you came unstuck!
yeah, saw those pics after I posted that - I wondered if it was the same place... I remember the other section but we never use to hit that part, it wasn't as long or big and usually had a bit more crap in it. Do you know if it's been extended? From memory there was no housing planned for that part, so maybe that why it's not full of homemade concrete buffers ,)
And yeah, for sure, keen to go check it out again... There was another ditch nearby/on the way, in Bensville (Green Point), kinda small but fun enough to stop and session... I'll try and locate it on Google Earth.
Thanks for the heads up.
hey man where you the nathan staying with MIsho in cali? if so did Chaput send you a set of his new trucks, if not good to see you in canberra see you soon at newtons.

Was wondering what kind of set-up you have with the Omni Drop?
I'm looking at buying another board shortly. Can you let me know what it's like?
