upland
On 2/16/2004 grindmaster wrote in from (212.126.nnn.nnn)

thanks for scoping it. yeah its so mellow you can snooze as you carve....still my favourite, second prize the tole bowl, then the kiddie bowl at cornwall park where i learnt to kickturn and my brother knocked out his teeth...never touched a skateboard again wisely! and i've just remembered that weird tight bowl at huntley, and a even eweirder park near the glenbrooke steel mill. next to a creek it flooded at high tide but i summer dried out fast enough to ride. i love weird and badly designed concrete!!!

Upland Bowl Auckland
On 2/15/2004 That 70's Skater wrote in from (219.89.nnn.nnn)

Grindmaster, had a skate at Upland in the weekend. The pool bowl is very tight with kinked trannies. Difficult but skateable. The rest of the place is pretty mellow. When you're here check out Devonport, the newly re-built Marlborough Park in Glenfield and Manukau park. They're probably the best spots in Auckland. Orewa has a new park too.

Sunday Slalom at Sutherland Bike track. I will be there from 10am onwards.
Joseph and Adrian will be there as will a couple of others too. We'll set some various courses, a bit of tight, a bit of gs.

Call me 0417 499 404 if you need directions. My email has been funky lately.
Enough boards to go around. So if you're in the Sydney area and interested in trying, come on out!

They've rebuilt Marlborough Park. Devonport is pretty fun if you like tranny and halfpipe. Taupo is the best park in NZ. Fun new bowql at Ngaruawahia.

Cheque out www.018.co.nz and www.skateparks.co.nz Pretty sure New Lynn is on their. It's old and rough these days. Grab my e-mail above and we'll hook up when you're here.

Keep an eye on this thread: http://www.nzskateboarding.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7283 Might be able to join us...

Grindmaster, don't know about Upland Road but definitely worth bringing your board over. Check out the parks section on www.nzskateboarding.com Plenty of new terrain around if Upland sucks!

What the !?!?
On 1/6/2004 Tone wrote in from (203.54.nnn.nnn)

Gudday all,

Just started a forum for Aussie slalom/old school skaters. While we are all glad that NCDSA is here doing their thing, it would be good to have a mail list for Ausiies to hook up, arrange some regular sessions and basiclly have a home on the web.

Have a look at http://www.groups.yahoo.com/groups/fatdeck/

Join up, post photos, organise a regular session in your locality. Get out there !

Tone.

Slalom Contest - Delayed
On 1/5/2004 Haggy wrote in from (220.240.nnn.nnn)

Hey Guys,
The slalom contest will be delayed. The original date was set for January 31 but I am going to delay until probably late February. This is to give me more time to raise interest in the event and secure sponsors. This also gives people some more time to practice!!!
I apologize if this gets in the way of anyone's plans.

For those of you who have been hearing about slalom and want to try it out (if you are in Sydney) I will be in Moore Park on Sunday from 1pm onwards. There is a great spot there and the likelihood of it being a bust is minimal. Look for me in the Northwest corner fo the park, corner of South Dowling St and Moore Park Rd. This is not far from Centennial Park and Fox Studios.
You can call me 0417 499404 if you want more details.

Hope to see some familiar faces there!

Slalom Contest
On 1/1/2004 Haggy wrote in from (203.51.nnn.nnn)

Welcome to 2004!
This is to officially announce the First Annual Southern Hemisphere Slalom Championships.
Events will include tight and giant slalom, as well as longboard slalom.
When: January 31, 2004 (time to be determined later)
Where: Sutherland bicycle track (Just south of Sydney, keep posted for information on how to get there)

Hopefully there will be some prizes from American manufacturers. I am waiting for responses.
Mark this date on your calendar. It will be a super event. Come on come all. Don't worry if you don't have a slalom board or a longboard. We will have plenty to go around.

Feel free to email with questions or input. The more of us that work together on this thing, the better it will be.

Peace, Happy skating!
Haggy

A good session was had on Sunday. It's a pretty good spot, unfortunately as Joseph mentioned, a bust. But we still had a good 2.5 hrs of good runs and fun.
Stay posted for information on the First Annual Southern Hemisphere Slalom Championships, scheduled for late January. Date coming soon.
In the meantime,
Skate Fast!
