Matt: Hey sorry I didn't have any time to hang out while I was out there in November. But it seemed strange to me that w/all the great streets out there, I didn't see any skaters around (not that I was around much anyway). Are there any laws against skateboarding in public out there?

Hey nifotc,
Try Boarders at Collaroy, last year they were stocking Dregs decks. I've also seen Surfection in Warriewood and Mona Vale carry Flexdex boards.
I find Manly Blades the best as they can specially order stuff from S9, such as deck only etc.
This country seems to be limited to S9 Boards, Independant Trucks and Krypto wheels. There's probably a small but consistent market if somebody wants to become the distributor for Randall Trucks in Australia.

Surfection shops usually have sectors 4 sale the best range i found was at mosman surfection but its all pretty sad if you want wheels or better trucks or a board other then a S9,the best bet 4 wheels is the online stores but the cost of getting it sent to sydney is a killer.Me and a few friends are going to get an order going of some abec 11 wheels and some trucks in the next few weeks(or when they can save some money instead of drinking piss)but if you want a board i can make you one alot cheaper then buying a board if you can find a shop which will seperate a deck from the rest.So the range for longboarders pretty much sux in sydney no randals no range of wheels no nothing,bummer.
Cheers Kanufi.

That spiral garage might make for a mean TS with big GS curves. I'd fly for a goofy thing like that.

Yeah Nic, Dogtown opens here on Jan 6th or Jan the 14th. Can't remember. There was an ad for it in the Herald. I'm on Waiheke, so I'm not getting the Herald for a while. But it is coming!

I've been hearing about a spiral carpark ramp in Wellington
that is open to skaters one day a year, you guys know anything
about that?
I went up to wellington a coupla months back and found two
spirals, one was 4 storeys and barely ridable (fast) and the
other was maybe 8 storeys of pure insanity (very fast).
