Here's a grand ad for codys electrician skills:
Adjusting the skatepark light to allow more night time riding of the bank. haw haw.
its been over a month since anything. lets blame this one on too much work, girlfriends and being slack as fuck.
i think i have one more riding photo that I've taken. Cody jared & phillip went to oz for a week or so i think. i have a few pictures from that but no stories as I'll let phil or cody or jared write up some. maybe a video aswell.
and the usual drank blah that you don't really care about.
i'll get that bullshit out of the way first.
couple weeks back at about 9pm jared cody rachael and i headed to taurnaga for a night out, checked into a dodgy hotel where no doubt a bunch of dirty hookers have been banged...in fact we saw one leaving. awesome.
also at buddah bar i think it was called we saw a couple girls dancing amazingly , jared mentioned it was like we were in a rap video .. .
okay i tried to find a youtube video to demonstrate this but i got distracted and gave up. but you get the idea
oh and after she noticed us mentally recording her for about 5 minutes she promptly handed us each her business card, which had her contact details so you could hire her as an 'exotic dancer' exotic!
Heres a couple pictures that ended up on my iphoto from codys camera. melbourne!
cody drinking at 730am
hotelll
duty free!
Stricly bmx
good old colony hell stalions . . . cody has a video of this dude casing the box and there-fore breaking his frame in half...ugh?
So, Whangamata trip went ahead as planned. hit that up during the day with a quick stop at Waihi with the old school bowl and the biggest dickheaded skaters ever...and the single most annoying question kid who wanted to know my life story and more...im sure you know the type "can you do a backflip? what kind of bike is that? can you do a 360? can you do a tailwhip? How long have you been riding for? do you know Phil Urwin? ....blah blah blah blah blah blah" as he snakes you on his mountion bike with a missing pedal. oh to be young again huh?
Heres some pictures from the trip and the box jump at Whanagamata.
Simon, Jared, Jed & Josh came along for the trip!
When we arrived at Whangamata there was a skater lying down before the box jump with a broken arm, his lower arm was bent...not a pretty sight, when the ambulance arrived and moved his arm into the sling the bone stuck through the skin and let a bit of a blood splatter out. pretty gnarly...not the best thing to see first thing at the skatepark eh!
And once he was cleared away some riding went down and I took pictures of the box jump.
Josh has been riding for about 3 months and going through the paces...will probably be rippin' in a few months
Jed has two very swollen knees atm, he can't really walk but can still ride fine! 360
