kiaora..
Just joined,
live in Dunnos..
kick around on a longboard with my daughter and partner weekends..
pretty much a newbie, but loving it all the same,
thought it would improve my surfing.. and quality time with family
Hey phoam good to see you here, there seems to be a nice wee group building,
I went into boarding after giving up surfing ( accident ) its good for the soul and family
I have twin 5yr boys who are havin fun learning, my longboards must be like 9foot guns
to them . anyhow stick around Im in Nelson but there is a few lads and lase`s down your way who Im sure will sort you out with places and crews.
cheers.
Have any of you guys ever dyed any of your wheels or know what dye to use and where to buy it. Every one suggested Rit Dye but i dont think that it is available here. I had a look that the supermarket and they didnt have any thing.

hey hobo (don't mean that offensively)... liking the video... not often you see kiwi stuff on the web! about time.
lol, i've put together a short one too - just of me and a mate hitting up the 24 hour car park in town!
[edit: i apologise for the quality - it was filmed on my cell phone - and the music in the background - sorry about that too!]
oh, and for sure we'll be careful if we ride at your spots down there. i know its hard enough finding decent places to skate - let alone actually convincing the owner/staff that you're not trying to tear up the place!
my daughter is 14 and is really enjoying the longboarding, just starting to do some stepwork and developing her own style.
cool vid nocturnal.. a little hard to watch, your phone must have a massive memory for video. long too, but great to see what you experience on a skate
Boardriding Hobo is my other half.. we did the hillbillies vid together...

Hey man, just off the top of my head a few places to ride are...
Summit Road (from Mt Pleasant to Evan's Pass)
Dyers Pass Road (the top section)
Major Aitken Drive (Broad Oaks/Huntsbury Hill)
Penruddocke Rise (Westmorland)
Basil Place (McCormicks Bay)
Basically just cruise round the hills one weekend and stick your nose up random streets you see... there's a few goodies to be found, but I can't remember them all by name...
