Im wanting to go traveling these summer holidays but i don't know where to go for skating.
maybe sydney for that new plaza there or melbourne
i don't know sum-one help me out with the best skate scene like spots and parks.
ive been to adelaide its fucken so rad, (LOVE LENNY) but need to check somewhere else out.
melbourne is good in the late summer as it doesnt get dark untill 9 o'clock at night... plus there is many of parks that are easy to get to buy just using tram or train... and its not too hot either...
Cairns is hot in the summer but hey, its worth it just to see the backpackers playing beach volleyball oh the ladies....
haha ok sweet man i've been thinking of melbourne heaps
is the weather real shit or nice?
adelaide sun doesn't go down till 9.oo as-well so sick, can film and skate all day.
thanks imgne
If you're parking it up Melbourne has shitloads -
just newport, box hill, coburg, deer park (and other new one near there), clifton hill, knox, epping, riverside, frankston, werribee and new plaza in geelong. Just those parks alone could keep you busy for weeks.
omg fuck yer i forgot they were all there.
thanks for that i think melbourne it is, and airfare tickets arnt much aye.
going to go up with like 3 mates or sum shit.
new plaza in geelong?? is that the one at the old norlane park, or is there a newer one?
this looks like it should only be a couple of weeks away now sk, mind you they have been taking forever with it... should have been done ages ago

proof will be in the pudding, some bits look good, some sections look like they just wont work
Walked past the park construction when we were there, looked interesting to say the least.
Ocean grove was a fun little park out of Geelong, not much of a street section though.
Sorry I didn't get to drop into your shop and meet you while I was there with the rest of the Lore crew Drew, but managing that many rowdy young skaters kept me pretty busy.
Would love to come back to Geelong though, the National hotel kicked ass, there was heaps of great street spots, and the locals we met - Jack Milner, Hugh Gilbert, Caccas etc were all champs.
We even caught local band featuring skaters - the frownin clowds? - who played a great set.
yer fresh as there
i want to go over. like does anyone know of a good like place to stay at in melbourne.
like cheap place to stay at not like bogan shit but stillalright.
i want to come down for like a week or sumthing.
