Angus Thomas killed it and placed second

At the end of the day Dale came through with the victory.

^ forgot the photo.... Gap to 5050

He was stoked. $500 is like 2 months worth of centrelink.

Milner nollie flipped the 10 first shot (not pictured) to slide into third and came up on some cash too. Massive thanks go out to SBA and elan for hooking up the contest and the prizes, what a bunch of legends.

Wow, Telescapes own Brian Mason!

Some crazy skating went down! Dale destroying everything, Clint as well, Gu's amazing flow around the whole park and Milner's Nollie flip the 10 first shot!

Bryan is killing it in film making receiving tons of awards and still kills it on a board when he gets out. Check out his latest release in cinemas atm.

Its been raining flat out in Adelaide for the last fortnight and rather than bore everyone with more warehouse photos I thought Id dig up some snaps of a few of the bros who have passed through town in the last year.

Fog brought Will, Dawsey, Joel and Tonks down and stayed in the Roebuck house for 10 hectics days. The boys posting up at big 5 with locals Kano and Gierke. Will drinks so much Sailor Jerry he should be sponno'd by them... oh yeah, he already is!

Dawsey gap out and over the bench while the angel of death looks down over Fog.

Under the bridge is a song by the red hot chilli peppers about being homeless and doing heroin. Luckily, when he was in Adelaide, we let Will stay at our house and do heroin.

Bs Heel.

P.S. Will doesn't do heroin... I think.

Dawsey fs flip bump to bump. <not a drug reference...

Will fs nose about 50 meters away from the pub they filmed 'Bad Boy Bubby' in. If you haven't seen BBB, your missing out.

Dawsey gap to nosegrind

^actually more of a bump to nosegrind but you got it right?

Another regular visitor to the 'laide due to his elan connection is Jake Smyth.

This spot is gone now. It got knocked down to build a woolworths. Before that it was a weird market that had stalls run by carnies and bikies and was the only place in town you could buy liquor on easter friday. You could also buy bongs there. Im gonna miss that spot. Jake transfer 5050 into the bank.

This spot is amazing yet so shit at the same time. Its at a block of units thats basically a retirement village so after about 2 tries all the old people come outside and crack the shits. Jake boardslid the rail first try then broke his board on the first crook attempt. By this stage the old folks were starting to yell at us. I offered Jake my board and he crooked the rail next shot no dramas.

Evans and I showed the Vans/Volcom dudes around when they came to town. Mappy was with them so obviously had the snaps covered but I still managed to bootleg the shit out of everything that went down without getting beat up.

Mitch Robertom blasts a melon at Seaford skatepark

The redwood rail is a favourite of all visitors. Its pretty much perfect. Mitch did this bs smith first shot. How's the front foot....

When we got to the spot, Jake hit a chalky on the way in and ate shit, spilling his macdonald's cup full of homemade mimosa everywhere. Immediately after this, a weekend cleaning lady cracked it and started yelling at him about littering, saying she was sick of cleaning up the mess left by skaters on the weekends. Bs Nbs

I had wanted to see someone ollie over this rail for ages but no one had been down. I suggested it to Reece and he was down. He then handled it with no dramas what so ever.

Clint's from Adelaide but gets flow from vans so he was in the posse. Mappy's angle of this sw heel was his first photo in slam. When the article came out and I saw it, I rang him and asked if he knew anything about it. He had no idea what I was talking about but was unreasonably stoked when he found out.

Back in the day this spot was the place in the city everyone met to go skating. Now days almost no one ever skates there. When I shot this photo I was so psyched because this was the spot I pretty much learned to skate at, met all my friends at and spent probably like half a year of actual life time at. This was my love park. Grenny's for life! Clint fs board.

Im pretty sure everyone who has seen Mitch skate knows he has a mean fs flip. This was no exception. Casual as fuck down the 5 block 2nd shot.
