One thing should always hold true. We look after customers, give the right advice, only sell 100% top quality gear. You have a problem, I have a problem. Heaps of orders left today, more leaving tomorrow. Thanks for the order, let me know if there are any problems. Hop.

You rock!

You must be better than that other one!

At 22:40 on May 25, 2009, leighgriffiths said…: try and do it once a week. we only do it at night though.

At 22:19 on May 25, 2009, leighgriffiths said…: you can still do DH on a Dervish. one of the guys down south often does Willunga hill on a Dervish, so it aint possible. it comes down to the rider skills.
yeah i do get my gear from Hopkin. it can sometimes be a tad more expensive than Boardshop, but postage is much quicker and customer service seems to be much better from what i've heard.

At 21:50 on May 25, 2009, leighgriffiths said…: nah, i started on the Evo as speed was the thing i was aiming for. but it was such a pain in the ass for cruising and getting to and from TAFE. so i got the Dervish for carving and commuting and i couldn't be happier.
all depends on where your interests are, but what i should have done was go for something that can do a bit DH and a bit of cruising. the Dervish and the Evo are pretty much opposites, so something in-between would of been a better choice as a first board.

At 21:18 on May 25, 2009, leighgriffiths said…: that was where we started. its a good place to learn to tuck, draft and slide, but thats about all.
check out the latest video i posted on McAdelaide. that was this arvo and as you can see, its a cool little spot for sliding.

At 21:01 on May 25, 2009, leighgriffiths said…: cool man. any hills that are steep and windy, but the one i ride most is probably Eagle with the rest of the crew (even though i'm getting a bit sick of it).
