Perth Skater/Filmers talk here

hmmm, bit of both. But considering they hadn't worked out how to go past 16-bit, I guess your right. There were so many more games available back then too. Technology just moves too fast for the game production now a days.

anyway... skateboarding.

Ben - I'm back in Hocking for 2 weeks, any more parks sprung up?

where is the bowl in giraween with pool coping?

yeh they made a plaza twice the size of the DC one

i havent actually skated local in a few months.

true. Prolly just hit carine and kinross then.

Look on Google maps for the Giraween bowl, I've never been there... apparently it's dope. Judging by the surrounding area, there might be a few melted green bins in it though. That seems to be the trend for parks in derelict communities.

too much effort, street name anyone

Isn't it listed on this site?

no apperantly it is pretty new...

oh, sorry, no idea. I thought it had been round for a while.

i read about the giraween bowl getting a big fence around it in the local paper last year.
dont see what good itll do.
what time does the manning comp start adam?
you mc'ing again?
and chuck me some proddy aswell ;)

ahha. Registration starts when we get there. Prolly around 11:30-12.
Yeah I be MC'ing it, and no I don't give a shit what anybody thinks about that.

I can only chuck you proddy if you lay Ham so commit.

Quick note for anybody who's going to compete. I don't judge it, all decisions are left up to judges themselves so if you got beef, don't shoot the messenger, yaaahhhh meeeeeen.

nah....just abuse adamo anyway :D

hey perth peoples
im getting to perth tomorrow...
ill be skating round and keen to film, so if you wanted to film something, just ask, cause i want to make a short perth film.
also depending on how much footage i get...

cheers, jack

so does that mean that it is going to be judge on how people skate rather than who they are, if so it is a very unperthlike concept...

Girahween park is just off Beach rd, can't think of the street name it's on but its right next to the leisure centre and some kind of church ting. Hope this helps. Last time I went there sucked as someone had tried to pry the drain in the bottom of leaving it bent up and waiting to munch peeps. Coping is fun to slash grind but sticks badly if you try 50s etc. Ledges are pretty wonky too, but ok.

Hope fully see you around while you are here Jack.

It's not just Perth thats full of judgemental skaters Demon. Comps suck anyway, they are just good for heckling the MC - hahaha.

Did you end up sorting that bag you wanted Adam O?

Looking forward to another Girl demo - where do you guys think it should be?

it has to be at the 'nang the only demo i remeber being anywhere else was the fallen demo at leederville and tommy gunz laid that place to rest...

I resent that comment deemoe. I know for a fact the people who have been judging the summer series so far this year have done so with a fair attitude. If anything the kids who had a "name for themselves" were judged harder than the other entrants.
You're basically judged on 3 aspects:
• Style
• Tricks landed
• Effort and versatility.

Although, as for comps in the past, I agree that Bias victories have been quite obviously made.

Girahween sounds nasty, i'll pass.

Yah, thanx for encouraging them. Yeah I ended up getting a pretty sweet Nixon pack, has all I needed, and treated me well on my travels. See you around soon I hope.

i am considering making an apperance tomoz but i am supposed to be doing a demo at atwell on sunday and skating 2 days in a row is way to epic...

is it the same judges for every comp in this summer series?
