Gnar Path of Pins (& Rixons Slide Jam)

Deep in the backwaters of Woonoona, a South Coast local happened upon a tight, twisty, pathy nirvana. The grom-friendly concrete was perfect for a fun race and Tim Day decided to make it happen, drumming up support and setting a date.

 After a postponement due to rain, the race was rescheduled for a few weeks later. Stoke grew as the date approached, with more and more crew clicking that attending button. The 26th came and with it a clear, still day, unseasonably…

Good plan! At UNSW? If you play your cards right you could do your 4th year thesis under my former supervisor and work on hemp or bamboo composites for longboards or something similar.

My undergrad thesis and PhD were on that topic (minus the longboards - though we did make a hemp street deck once). I'm sure he still has plenty of projects in the offing. I'll leave you to figure out which Professor I mean. If you go there it shouldn't take you long to figure it out....

 

So if you're planning to study Engineering, your pedantic tendencies should come in handy :P

Hey dude. I don't quite get what you mean by the shots are running too long? Can you just reply to this comment on my wall. With a bit of an explanation of what you mean. I'll try to fix it up in my next videos. 

Cheers for the feed back.
