Well Rampage is officially open now and its rad. The spine mini is looking nuts. Just about finished with that. The session tonight was pretty sweet with some serious foam pit antics going down.. Itll be cool to see some of that going down on the box.. There was plenty of highlights tonight and a bit of a low as well.. Alan M was boosting the boxes too high, Frasier was getting styly and some long hair guy was boosting high very nice bar spins and shit. Some westies even made an appearance. We also got to see legend Dave M out as well. That was sweet. Louis B has picked up a new short term deal with ACC but still shredded.

Two lows were the kids that "forgot" to pay and than seeing Seth after his crash. The story I got is that he was going down a hill and his front wheel fell off.. Hes a bit like road kill at the moment.. We all hope he heals up quick and starts riding with us more. Always a good laugh when hes slothing it hard... O and I saw Jaden just learn 3 whips last week, well now hes catching 3 doubles.. yeah your a shit...

This first pic is from the tunneling project near mission bay. I had to the chance to check it out while I was doing some work there. Was pretty sweet and alot of money being spent to pump shit around..

This is the monster box I got at work. Pretty stoked on this bad boy. Only mitutoyo and koken in her..

Some hot slag being poured out of the furnace at the steel plant while I was doing some work there. Fucking hot from far away.

Auckland riders have something to really be happy about these days. Finally we got a proper fuly sick indoor park in this country.. Some of the crew were fortunate to get a bit of a sneak peek and shred on the weekend. It was for sure one of the best sessions Ive had in ages. The park was so beyond all expectations I had. It was great to see everyone just smiling the whole time and having a great time on the 20's. I was a bit bummed ( actually very pissed ) to read all the poo on Zombie the other day. Anyways everyones heard enough about that. Stay tuned to Zombie for the final details on when you guys can come shred. And the owner is a sweet dude named Gavin. He's a genuine guy and working his ass off for all you guys to enjoy this. And he's got a newborn at home and he's been at the park like 24/7 to get it sweet for everyone. So much thanks to that and Im sure his wife is ready for it to be complete so he can have a rest and chill with the little one... So guys please respect the work involved and the sacrifices being made so this can happen... Heres a bit of the park..

Never the less the snow was exciting so me and Ariel went for a roll down main st to see what we could ride. but ended up just messing around, taking full advantage of the snow fall and doing some drifts in the car parks and streets. Theres no more than 3cm out but still fun as since Ive never experienced that before.

Last week I was fortunate enough to have Auckland rider Lucas invite me to stay at his place on the coast in Brazil. I got to hang out proper style with his grandparents and great grandparents which is a rare thing! We ate some killer good BBQ and checked out the best buffet restaurant I've been to. Just outside the driveway was this ghetto ramp which was super sketchy and scary yet so much fun. Lucas had his bike so after a few vodkas and in a solid pair of jandals, we hit it up.

The only park ive seen so far on my travels...weird as hell transistions but still fun.

Quite some time ago I heard whispers that an indoor park was in the works and in the past few months they were confimerd. So it was exciting to see the post on Zombie that it will be open real soon. Not so cool are half the comments. It's unbeilvble that people can bitch about something like this. I've been to countries and citys that don't even have a half decent park bench to ride let alone any form of skatepark.

We're super luck in NZ with what we have to ride and even lucker to have such a strong growing sceen - those that bitch dont have clue how it was even 5 years ago let alone 10!

So it's only my opinion, but something like an indoor park needs proper respect. Any decent event, jam, comp, website or shop etc takes huge time, requires time away from riding and paying jobs and costs hard earned money, so I could only imagine the work, dedication, and money needed to start and keep something like this running so I'm psyched.....Can't wait to get back home next year and check it out.

I spotted Louis' updated WTP page....I guess he should be posting this up but never the less, looks rad, has a couple of photos, bike check, a short interview and his old videorama vid I thought I'd post above for those that never saw it...still a killer vid. Cheers for the shout out to!

Check the WTP page out here.

Nice work brother!

Well, I guess everyones probably thinking of seeing Jed Main St jam updates..... Looking here at the moment your fresh out of luck! I left my camera cable back in vancouver, so you'll just have to settle for some vancouver photos. As of late pretty much the only thing we have been riding is the igloo, these are some of scotts photos from before he moved to alberta.

In Order: Scott, carving high, Little bit of art on the wall, Mick mate, just a few days before going back to ozz, George, euro table, over the best hip ever!

Thats all I got, probably the only post ill do here unless i can unload my photos before I fly out on Friday night.
