Default Brisbane Longboarders Guide

Hey guys,

I moved this from the South East QLD thread so I didn't clog it up.

I made a map of all the good longboarding places I knew around Brisbane and got people to add to it, so if you have a place you like to skate just post it in this thread.

Brisbane Longboarders Guide

Cheers,
Nick

Brisbane Longboarders Guide
A map to show some good car parks and hills around Brisbane.

Colour Codes:

Green = Car park
Blue = Fun run
Red = Down hill
Other = Look in description

Condition Levels:

Level 1: Gravel road, unskateable
Level 2: Rough, uneven road full of potholes
Level 3: Rough in parts with some uneveness and some potholes
Level 4: Good skateable road with barely any roughness except for some bums and unevenness, most Brisbane roads
Level 5: New laid road thats perfectly flat, Car park grade smoothness






That being said don't hesitate to post more runs as Nick is more than happy to find cool new hills in Brisbane.

I think the transit centre at roma st will be on the map very soon, maybe add a question mark for now, until we sesh the kashoobies out out of it, though it looks very very smooth and has som large spiraling outer ramps which may be fun.

Not sure if this is such a good thing. Roads might be fine but your probably better off keeping carparks etc amongst yourselves. I could be wrong, but making an online list of private property that you skate on might not be the best idea...

the only thing we really have to worry about is to many skaters sitting in one place and we don't reeally have the numbers for that to happen
i seriously doubt people will monitor an international sit like this

Well just to be safe I made the map "unlisted" so that only the people who click on that link can get there.

Thanks for that m-tron, totally overlooked it

^What Civ said


Though remember you can always come Brisbane and at least a few of us will be free.


Now remember no more copy and pasting the same message.
