When I was over (like 2001 lol) I was mainly skating with Igor, Tien, Ben and those guys... but met a lot of the other guys there to. Ian Brown was a champ.

If you see Tom say hi from Twisty, he was kind enough to let me crash at his place a few years ago and havn't talked to him in a long time.

Should real do another trip over East again now flights are so cheap.

Yeah man OG, I know that feeling... every time i see some kid 540 to a grind I feel like a true OG lol

lol @ metro fag... do a wheelie!

Hey Guys,

I was going to come to the North side dinner the other day to meet some of you guys (living in the northside myself), but shit hit the fan at work. Maybe the next one.

On a different note just wondering if there are any bladers around, who may be interested in a weekly/fortnightly meet for a bit of exercise (Sunday arvos possibly). I went to a path at Haberfield last week (Near the dog park there) and it was an awesome place to blade with nice smooth paths next to the water in the kanals there. ALso there was plenty of parking.

Being still new in town, if people have other spots in mind we can change destinations from time to time. I wouldn't recommend the Luna park side of Milson's Point as it was a pretty shit run, with board walk and more board walk, but Manly/Bondi should be good.

Anyway if you keen send me a pm with your email and we can do something this Sunday arvo (30th) say at 3pm.

Draen

hey Draen, if i lived in Sydney I'd be keen... I have my own blades and used to go a fair bit till I got lazy. I like the idea of flat smooth paths... not really into any fancy crap or tricks lol.. it's more for the fun & exercise :nyaanyaa:

I'm in Sydney a fair bit but stay down south and tend to get lost if I have to drive too far from there :yucky:

anyway good luck with it!

I think that Harley bloke went to my school. Blacktown Boys High

But he was a few years older.

I remember the only ramps was emerton spine ramp(but who'd go there)

blacktown pools(bit big)

& bondi had 2 ramps,i liked the little 1

hmm might be interested depending on when it is as i'm in sydney on and off... used to blade like crazy when i was a kid and grew up playin roller hockey on the street during ice hockey's off season. think i still have my old blades from when I was 16 in the garage somewhere.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
