Default The Kiwi Thread (and no, not the fruit)

Well i thought i may as well make one thread for all us people in this beautiful country called New Zealand.

Here you can find other people to skate with, organize sessions, or just talk about things in general.

We should all go meet somewhere sometime and go for a skate. It would be fun.

Where is the best place to skate? We should all meet there at some point and just rip it up. Cause i always see pictures of big skate crews and such but you never get that opportunity in New Zealand.
Ive got like 3 people who could come with me.
Anyway.
Lets try and round up as many New Zealanders as we can in here. Search Now!

Oh yes and my mobile is:

Did anyone else notice that pretty much all the NZ longboards live in different parts of the country, noone in the same place.

Anyway im up in Auckland so if anyones up here give me a text on 0273028988 but i have only been longbaording for a few months so im a bit of a n00b.

so........

whats the best kiwi for sliding on?


oh, and the thing you haven't realised is that coming into an Australian thread to "represent" proves one thing about kiwi's:

you actually, seriously and totally think we give a crap about you. sorry; we don't- never have, never will- you are nothing to our great sense of laziness.....now go away before we throw empty stubbies at you and unleash the drop bears.
