I know absolutely every part of the board has had a problem, 2 months waiting, no wheels, and the trucks got lost in the mail. i definitely wont be recommending buying direct from comet, cheaper it maybe but customer service is not worth it, 2 months and i never even got a email. i don't know how i'm going to get these wheels off them.

At 18:31 on December 1, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: so my board came after 2and a half months...... they forgot to pack my wheels, so i'm still grounded. yay.

i have emailed them but i think i'll just buy some from hopkin and when they do eventually arrive sell them, they only cost $50 with my board so i'd be able to sell for a profit maybe.

At 20:10 on November 24, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: ok cool, i was worried maybe i got the wrong board because i'm so used to flexy.

finnished my gloves today, am going to go out with my mate on tuesday after school and try some slides on his board.

i finally got a tracking number, so i presume they have sent it off. But the USPS tracking thing is down. really helpful lol.

At 18:51 on November 18, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: got the trucks today, still waiting on the deck.

love carparks so good.

arg in the time that it's been waiting for the gear, i have been getting second thoughts thinking maybe i should have got a Deverish or something a little more versatile, because i don't know how much of a opportunity i'm actually going to get for hills where a bord like that is necessary, even though i would love to learn.

At 9:50 on November 16, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: So apparently my paris trucks from hopshop, got lost in the mail, so Australia post is trying to sort that out.

and then i have heard absolutely nothing from comet about my Deck and wheels, they have not even sent me a tracking number and i ordered the thing 3 weeks ago.

so yea pretty annoyed, i'll get back to you if i hear anything/ when i get the stuff.

sucks, i was really looking forward to a slide session.

At 9:48 on October 30, 2010, Bozac said…: i was looking at 120 for the doll and 180 for the dervish, both are in really good nick with a bit of grip tape lifting at the rear of the doll but that can be easily ripped off and re gripped because it is taped in sections not one whole sheet. how did you end up with excess trucks? my only spare trucks are the shit old pivot trucks (they are before gullwing came standard on sector 9s)

At 0:48 on October 30, 2010, Bozac said…: probably a flex 1 dervish deck, the voodoo doll deck and a slalom deck with tracker trucks. stuff i don't ride much and needs to get some use by someone. cant wait to get back up to speed though, i met mick mack briefly at newtons last year but haven't seen him since so it will be good to skate with him

At 13:05 on October 29, 2010, Bozac said…: Haha i know it has been ages, and I have an exam on the 13th otherwise I would be there. Might have to make it out for a night session soon. Gonna get rid of some spare gear and get a vendetta for around uni, looks like you guys have a decent sized crew down here now

At 22:53 on October 28, 2010, Gary Fleming said…: alright sweet.
yeah no worries man, sorry bout the excess email intake haha
i work at 12.45, so it'd be a quick one. i skate edith quite regularly, i never paid attention to what it was called but haha

At 8:00 on October 27, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: got a helmet I'm right now working on a pair of home made gloves.

skinned knees don't really bother me.

thanks

At 21:55 on October 26, 2010, Martin Diesendorf said…: Hey man, made the order today, so i should have it in a couple of weeks i guess.

Pretty eager to really get into some sliding. will probably bring my mate along with me.

At 0:18 on October 14, 2010, Premium MemberCory Ellis said…: dude, there is nothing more fun that! what better feeling could you ask for?
yeah one of them is but only to stop himself... he is pretty confided, he just doesnt get into it... he just throws shutdown slides everywhere.. its annoying.. but he likes to drive me back up the hills and watch, i cant complain haha...
well do you know where bega, tathra, merimbula or eden is? its about 5 hours away from you guys, so like 2 and a bit hours from batemans bay? you live in wollongong yeah?
dude it sounds perfect up there... i wish i had that... skating in packs and groups is soo much funner. not that i would know though ahaha...
yeah il have to start up a discussion...

At 21:41 on October 13, 2010, Premium MemberCory Ellis said…: yeah im quite the lucky lad haha
well they have boards, and gloves. but theyre only learning and they dont really see it as fun. its just really an image type of thing to them which pisses me off...
dude the hills here are epic, im not overexaggerating. there is that much potential. you guys need to road trip down here, the roads need to be skated. and one person can only do so much... haha
yeah il definately keep updated.. il let you know when im sure of the date im coming up...
are their many outlaw races or what not happening up there?
yeah i dont know anybody at all who does downhill around here for a couple hours actually... its depressing man haha
ohh i reckon... how many people on here do you think actually might live down this way?

At 0:33 on October 13, 2010, Premium MemberCory Ellis said…: yeah well we had to do it in parts.. its a bit sketchy with so many blind sections, so we have a few lads who watch me come up and sit on corners signalling... but its soooo worth it. they just re-tarred.
yeah ive got another vid coming soon, some of the local secret spots ive kept to myself. should be good. il keep you posted..
sounds good to me, id be keen to show you guys some spots down here... theres so much potential for racing down here and the hills are just going to waste..
il be up sometime around christmas i think, im not sure. but im definately coming up... il let you know, definately keen to go out with a few of you boys.... ive got alot of family up there and cousins about your age all doing uni so i come up a fair bit each year...
its good to hear its kicking off up there. im thinking of either moving to wollongong or adelaide when im done with school... not sure though...
is there like a group or something i can join to get in touch with all the south and far south coast guys or?
