Super spot

Went on a mission to find this spot, which we did and it's amamzing! Been hearing that this place has dope spots but haven't seen many so it was good to finally hit a spot where you can sit down and actually skate. This pat was the only bit where they were tripping on us skating, so we saved it for last, a security guard trying to book us got too close and copped a board to the shins for his troubles. The rest of the plaza is open game

Seshed these banks and gaps quite alot. Heaps of fun, best spot so far.

More park flicks

Scale and perspective.
The face says it all
The only food we could find out there, the soup is fucking horrible
Light side of the moon and the black hole
I lugged my pads a long way and was too afraid to put them on, I'll have to man up soon.
the anti-hero bowl, this thing is fucking huge and has marble coping

This one's for the BOW-WOW

Four XL B-ball kits G-G-G-G-G-G-Gangster. Check my game face.

The promised land

Words or photos are never going to do any justice to how gnarly the park is, there are 18 foot bowls with marble coping that i know i'm never going to grind, crazy over vert bowls, head hight ledges and rails, a vert ramp bigger than the Woolys shed, more marble ledges than you can poke a stick at, small bowls, a streety park and my favourite and the scariest thing I've ever ridden the DEATH tube. The place is so intimidating and it's hot as a fuck here, there were about 7 other people there when we went, all locals who mostly lurk in the street park, it looks like an empty waste-land and just like in the real world alot of the ledges are fucked and the ground sucks in spots. Some of the ramps are cracking apart. We got lost as hell trying to get here but it's been worth all the effort, this place is a close no.2 after Woolys as my favourite place on earth.
The park is not just dangerous for humans, frogs hop in from the lake next door and they don't hop out. It's so hot in there that they are mumified into frog jerky, baked hard as stones.
And they are everywhere.... Oly hung up on this one riding a huge concrete bowl with over vert capsules and flew straight into the hard steep tranny and re-freshing his hipper. He was not happy....

local shots

the other day frodo pointed out that this "freo blog" didnt actually have any photos taken in freo on it. So here are afew local pics from monday arvo

when you go to freo you have to stop in at this place


the rasta guy came by woolies and mumbled some stuff at me zoeh and otis.. i didnt understand him through the accent but he inspired zoeh to do some jammin'


back at woolies with karma. she thought her old board was too big and new one is too small, but video games are just right


i have a gash on my hand from opening a beer..


its free pool at the pub next to aids and bowows house so we went and played a few games.. i wore red shoes


i beat frodo more often than he beat me


aids chalked up stina instead of a cue


he wore some too so she didnt feel weird


zoeh has a cameraphone now, hes gunna be part of the blog when he gets the internet


after pool we mongo'd it home..

technical difficulties....

We have all kinds of amazing photos and stuff from the giant park for you, but due to weird computer errors and god-damn chinese text we are unable to up-load right now. Sorry, we'll stay on the case and with any luck we'll have more of that Tang for you soon. Peace!
