    Default South African riders?

    I'm going to Cape Town at the beginning of November. I just wanted to know what the scene was like out there. What's the general public feeling towards longboarders? What are the cops like to longboarders?

    Got back yesterday.

    Didn't get a chance to ride, which is a shame because I was hoping to break in my Caften.

    I fell and twisted my ankle doing the tourist bit looking at the penguins at Boulder's Beach

    I'm definitely heading back, probably in Feb or March. I've got family there, and my cousin and his friends longboard. They're going to take me to Signal Hill, and I want to try Ou Kaapse Weg.

    Default speedboarding

    hey south african longboarders!
    I'm doing an article for concrete wave on longboarding around the world. Un fortunately my deck broke back in Scotland in a heated night of sliding. I'm looking to either buy a used one, and/or to meet up with some locals so they can show me their stuff, so I can ride with you guys, and to take some pics. If anybody is interested email me at kobra_nbk@hotmail.com or post a reply here, or you can find me on www.ontariolongboarding.com under the same user name

    peace out,

    mike
