Day 7
Enjoyin
bed this mornin. Not gonna have the benefit of me bed for the next few
weeks, gotta take it when i can eh. First things first, clean up, freshen
up and hit the road looking for hills.
First
of the day is me favourite little jam spot right up on the top of
Burliegh Headland. Its a gnarly spot to start the day, Steep, fast and
tight, the pavement in one of the top corners is wavy and a little
uneven. All good. Session the hell outta the fewm for the next hour.
Drew a crowd of all ages. Stoked to see so many keen punters login wat
we're doin.
The
next hill was a tight hairpin above one of the oldest runs in the GC
scene's history, Racetrack. the top of racetrack is for the more skilled
sk8er. Steep and smooth and to negotiate traffic u need to be in
control. The bottom and the more commonly sessioned part of Racetrack is
fun and mellow with some real nice S bends in the bottom. We got down
and did a film run, narrowly missing a van towing a boat!
Back
to the beach and North Burliegh for a pathway jam. The headland at
North Burliegh is tight steep and rough. RAD. Again, theres a heap of
crew sitting watching and really takin in the show. Dillon, Kyle and
myself all riding different decks/wheels displaying the range of
Landyachtz' products for 2013. Guff and Jaco getting down and capturing
everything, must be hard at times so i say thanks boys!
Next
up is a little gem I've been working on for the last 3 years. Its next
level this joint and ive called it "Aussie Pipeline". Be sure to look
out for a race here in the near future. Its 1km, the pavement is
butter,its steep and tight with the big breaking turns, fun all
houses, the locals are dope and its in a private estate behind closed
gates! This is only the third time I've sk8ed the hill in 3 years and
I'm stoked to be able to get the chance to bring the Landy crew here to
meet the locals and session. The feedback was so positive. Everyone was
stoked. Tour shirts, mags and stickers got handed out to the residence
and the kids that came to watch. Its hard to describe the feeling after
so many years of networking and so much hard work and to see it finally
pay off in the most amazing way between the sk8 community and the
residence, one word, STOKED!
Frothin,
we jam back in the RV to mission south to Byron Bay, the most eastern
point on Australia's east coast. Early has a sector down here and its a
great place to come and unwind. Its hell chill in the bay. Its gonna be
great to see the boys! Its been a damn good day!
