Allawah on Sunday
On 10/13/2005 Bugs wrote in from Australia  (59.167.nnn.nnn)

Looking forward to a session this Sunday. Haven't skated for a while.

We have to get back to the netball courts soon - it could be THE spot for a slalom/longboard race. Need to test out whether a course can be set that will work for all sorts of boards/riders.

Comet skateboards in Australia??
On 10/7/2005 craftydan wrote in from Australia  (211.28.nnn.nnn)

Can anyone tell me if there is anywhere to buy 'Comet' decks in Australia. Or is the only option to get them from Shiner in the UK via post.

Thanx

craftydan

Ok then, it seems that Kanufi is not interested in the wheels after all - I will be travelling up the East Coast of Australia over the next week and a half so if anyone else would like to try and meet up to get these wheels please email me: themuzzo@hotmail.com. My internet access might be a bit infrequent but I will check as often as possible.

Yeah, i used to live in coogee and drop my ex off at work at the centennial park stables and go across the street and run courses on the netball courts all the time. absolutely perfect for cyberslalom, that is for sure.
Do you know if they are lit up at night? we could meet up on wed or thurs night there and have a session if there are lights.

Ok I will get on it & order the wheels asap. I will be a bit limmited by weight allowances so 2 sets each should be cool.

Netball and slalom
On 9/24/2005 Bugs wrote in from Japan  (59.167.nnn.nnn)

Tim, funny you should mention netball courts as Haggy and I were riding some a couple of weekends ago. These courts were terraced on a hill, with nice ramps from one court down to another. Lotsa fun - you can set up some pretty funky courses.

Allawah is kinda steep, especially the slope on the left. The slope on the right is OK though. P5 at Homebush is a bit gentler than both.

Come to the next slalom session we have.

Coming To Sydney
On 9/24/2005 Muzzo wrote in from United Kingdom  (213.130.nnn.nnn)

Hi Sk8ters, Gonna be in Sydney next weekend then travelling up to Cairns by car. Was just wandering what the new park @ Bondi is like ,& whether there are any other parks suited to a sk8ter who likes to carve big crete parks on a slalom board.
I could also bring some sk8 stuff If any body wants anything. I can get my hands on the whole 3dm range as I understand that they r in short supply over there.

slalom spots in sydney
On 9/23/2005 Tim wrote in from Australia  (203.206.nnn.nnn)

I know you guys have talked about More park before , but have you ever skated the netball courts behind the tennis courts near fox studio's. Flat I know but would be a great spot for a cyber slalom set up. I spent a couple of hours there today for a pump session and i could get up a bit of speed. Smoooooth as , painted green surface in a high friction finish, like fine sand paper. A breeze made for a very fast pump in 1 direction and a hard 1 into the wind. I have never run cones but would love to try . Went down to Allawah and found the slope too steep for slalom at my skill level.

Sydney Uni
On 9/21/2005 Eric wrote in from Australia  (129.78.nnn.nnn)

Sydney Uni has a couple hills that would work for slalom, but they consistently have traffic during the week. I haven't been on campus at all during the weekend, so I don't know what it's like then. I might be able to check it out this weekend.

I won't be able to make the Thurs night session. I'll have to catch the next one.

Slalom, Thursday 7pm at P5
On 9/18/2005 Bugs wrote in from Australia  (203.12.nnn.nnn)

Who's up for a session at P5 on Thursday night (22nd)?

Re new slalom spots - there's a bike track that runs along the Cooks River from Tempe, past Dulwich Hill, Canterbury, and beyond. Most of it is bordered by parks. There's gotta be some good spots along there somewhere. It's a big area to explore - the best way is probably on a bike.

My other idea is schools - they often have a couple of roads through them, and they're empty on weekends. Just have to find a good one, and hope we get left alone by any security guards.

Eric - if you're listening, are there any likely slalom spots at Sydney Uni?
