Yeah there are eight boards in the prize pool so far. There are two Chemical Storm Octorockers, plus an extra one for the Shred I believe. That makes it nine.

Depending on what you want, we might be able to offer you a trade for a shorter board. No promises and it depends on what’s available.

God I loved watching that vid.  If I could get the balls to do one front 3 of that 55ftr with even a slightly tweaked indy grab and get the photo, I would be trying to tackle cars I would be that excited.  I lie, even without tweaking it I would be stoked.

Totally agree! Just shows that you dont have to throw epic tricks n spins to make boarding look so good!

Got back last night, awesome weather, Saturday was a little icy in some parts, I totally KO’ed my tailbone in the Leichhardt park, they had changed the jumps since I was there last, nowhere near as big and I overshot the last one badly and ended up landing on my arse.  Falling over has so much greater consequences when you weigh in at 115kgs.  I gunna run my arse off everyday till I go to NZ just to try and drop some weight.

Ouch!

Just goes to show you should always do a recy before hitting a jump!

Glad you had a good weekend - Looking forward to my trip this weekend. Hoping to escape work early (using my car as an excuse, want to get it there before dusk)

Fingers crossed more snow than that yucky clear stuff falls this week!

I was in the tent again last weekend, I actually love it, something about getting away with a weekend in the snow for bugger all cash is very satisfying!  I imagine the car is similar.
