After a brief hiatus Knobby's Blog is back!

Next week will be back to the normal photo blogging but for now check out the first Knobby's Blog Park Clip and scope this snap of Jay Runciman for the Wes Kremer wallride comp...

That clip was unreal!

Vic square looks like it makes for some epic shots with the post office and town hall in the background!

wallride photo is awesome

Killin it

Rad park shreding, still gotta get to the Gawler park arghhhhh

Knobby's blog this week is not quite what it was meant to be due to an unfortunate incident in which I accidentally deleted the folder that I had been storing all my blog images in. I tried some data recovery software and was fortunate enough to recover a small selection of stuff. So apologies to you guys and to the dudes who's photos were deleted (mainly Callum, Craigo and Jay).

Most of what was salvaged was from the last weekend of Streets Made Us filming. The dvd should be in skateshops in the next few weeks or potentially available by harassing evans on here.

Burnden was psyched and put $50 on the make for Clint's ender.

Then it was Dale's turn. So we went to an untouched rail in the Adelaide hills. It had a drain/grate in front of it so he filled it with dirt and built a little bridge to get over it.

Riels was manning the second angle from the rooftop.

Showtime...

In keeping with the traditions of the McDermott family, Dale made the rail his bitch then celebrated by necking a beer.

Celebratory portrait photobombed by burnden.

Then for the last spot/trick of the video we took the 14 year old to the 15 stair.

He handled it like a childlike boss and we had one last group huddle/footage review.

This photo of Chris is the only photo from the last 2 weeks that survived the recycle bin purge. The long lens version was better too. Sorry Craigo!

In an attempt to salvage this weeks blog I've whipped this one out of the "keepers" folder.

This drain is in pretty much the ghetto of Adelaide and I probably should have had a better look for discarded syringes before i laid on the creek bank to shoot this one.

Burden kf wallride

A few months back I had the pleasure of sharing the role of tour guide for the Slam trip to Adelaide that was in the last issue. To say the trip was stacked with rippers was an understatement. Jake Duncombe, Matt Cheney, Will Hine, Ryder Lawson, Vaughn Marks, Blake Harris, Lewis Wood, Jake Smyth, Cody Passfield, Dean Parsons and German import Fabi Surber along with videographer Steve Murphy and the forums' own photo G Cameron Markin all came to town to handle business. I can easily say that some of the gnarliest skating Adelaide had ever seen went down in those 10 days.

This week and next week I'm going to put up a sort of behind the scenes/photo poaching collection of goodness from the trip. Thanks again to all the dudes on the trip and to Cam for letting me shoot around him without getting dirty at me!

Duncombe Beni for the boys, Osbourne Park

Cody fs board warm ups, Port Rail

On the next attempt at this fs feebs Cody slipped out and sat on his foot. Everyone thought he had broken it. Walker took him to the hospital for xrays but lucky for Cody it wasn't broken but unfortunately it would be the last thing he skated on the trip.
