Day 7 and 8 of N-Tense D-Centz magical mystery tour
Day 7
Word of the Day, ka kite ano ( ka kee ta agh no) Respectful Goodbye.
Up well before the sun this morning. Benbro has to be back in Auckland and we still got some highway bombing to do! Driving past the still gulf waters at Thames gabe be reading his Stoke Machine blog! pumped!!
Hwy bomb at the Bombay hills and wow, hectic. sooo gnarly as we came in from the merge, couple big semi's and speedy had committed. i followed in and punched a gap in front of two big doubles. dude, wake up call i tells ya. Mondo traffic action, close to peak hour. Fun just to say i did it.
Droppin Benbro at the airport with a heap o time to get sorted. Its been a rad time as always with ya benny, ka kite ano bra! Just two of the team left now, Gabwagh and myself. won't be long before the krew be back as a complete unit takin on the world!
Mondo stoke. LANDYACHTZ has totally hooked the tour up with the goods! i got thrown a package of new thane to shred the shit on! Banners, Boards, T's Stickers and Wheels up for a silent auction on the kuzzi facebook page. All u peeps that want some Landyachtz product, get to GNARTEAROA and throw down some dollar to help this siiiik tour! massive thanks to me wantoks over there in BC, always getting er done eh!
Stopped in at Cheap Skates and said our OI's to the crew. gabe has needed some new kicks for a while now so it gave him the opportunity to barter a deal and swap some thane for some Nike SB mid cut. nice shoe. Good deal. Flicked through the stack of Concrete Waves and found a few adds with my ugly mug. Signed em and showed the boys. tell ya the truth, i don't think they knew wat was up. Full on shorty crew, but as I've said, thats cool. Thats their thing.
Wahkoowa Testical Facility. Speedy's been keepn this one relatively secret. i understand why! Not much but perfect sums this one up. Lurkin behind locked gate, this gold mine was the home of the jedus and brothers to our ol mate the mondo stiffy. Butter pavement, closed road, mellow gutters, nice bends, two lanes no join seal, epic view. i say its perfect because of the pure nature of the environment. A road we all dream of. I swear I've dreamt of this sorta shit for years. Gabe, Bondi, and myself throw fffwwwwaaahhhh- pppaaaa after fwwwapagh, toeside to heelside. kuzzi Phil, after racing here under the organising of speedy, knew only top mob and massive skid action was deployed. this was his style, thats cool, yeah bra! Shaza and Karl learnt the way of the s-up. following the style of the s-up crew they started dailing that shit in the matter of a couple hours. The pom and wicked sauce layin down in style too. great to see the crew stoke on skids and froth off those inspiring them. I was inspired by all! We got a solid two days here. spewin that the rest of the crew couldn't sample, we'll just have to get our jedus flown mondo styles for the unlucky bastards eh! LOVE!
Hit up HOPKIN.COM for some of the new Landyachtz Mini Zombies. Im not sure how many siiiik skids i did this arv, but they preformed superbly. New core, New shape, New size = MONDO JEDUS!!!!!
Day 8. N-tence D-sence Word of the Day: puku "belly"
Cant wait to get the hill this morning, some epic arvi conditions yesty meant mondo stoke early. Breaki and to the hill it was. another feeling of disbelief as we turned up the gate. This must be real. this place is real mo foe's. get to NZ, hit up speedy and he'll get it hooked up!
Mondo stiffi's and flowing jedus is the story of the day. The bus rank of it. The crew are frothing. Some great stuff went down today. The usual players doin their things. Gabe and i did a run down that was crazy, but right there unlocked the capabilities of the gem. u could mob it fast s-up. the day was epic. Some auckland groms came to shred, luke and Joseph, thanks! Shazza and Bondi cored wheels and were tearing shit to bits on minimal thane before a change up. it was the road for it. hot its said to be slippery and cold, crazy grippy? Hope its hot!!
Swim down the beach with a few coldi's. scrub the jedus and get some salt on the skins always refreshing. dinner and a couple stoke sessions on tomorrow and the hay it is!
Day 9. Word of the day: Kia moana " food of the sea"
Another rad morning. fresh breeze and sun is a great mixture for a lil stretch. Off we head for the day. gotta get food and gas at Makana, small lil backtrack, give me some time to reflect on the last two days at paradise.
Plan to get some filming in today as we've had the last two days sessonin and figuring out different things.
Well things haven't let us down at the Wahkoowa Testicle Facility. another day of blue skies and perfect temps. After spending the morning getting in some warm up runs it was time to film. The day was warming nicely soo meant for some buttery skiddy pavement. Just like to say it was a pleasure working with Gabe and Bondi makin a new lil vid for SkateHouseMedia. I've never really had the chance to jam with the bearded bloke from the west coast. Need less to say, he rips and its all because of trips like this that i get to jam with rad dudes like Bondi. yeah bloke! Good times!
Headin north again this arv to Paihia, in the beautiful Bay of Islands. Lookin at getting amongst the hills of Mungamuka Gorge. I feel a lazy night comin on, been a big day and plenty to stoke on. Agh looki looki, the accommodation we scored tonyt has FREE wi-fi. Epic, been too long since connection. Enjoy the blogs of the last week yo!
