Northcote Bowl

So i had a skate round Northcote bowl today. wow. not too big not too small, fast and a few crazy corners thrown in just to keep you guessing, that and the fact it's about 6 years old and still looking and riding great. strangely enough some BMX riders arrived and one of them was talking about travelling round the country building ramps with Convic, pointing at one of the insane corners saying "yeah i don't know what happened there, maybe i didn't pre-load it properly"

i'll be back to get some footage and photos later.

My new favourite:

idiom: "pirate juice" an interesting combination of port and i think red wine. provided by, er, a pirate.
statement: "i know its not about the money" "nothing important ever is."
word: Gain- in audio, "gimmie some gain!" in concept, natural fortitude, to improve or increase.
concept: anything with enough variables to make the input/output infinite, is an instrument. Anyone capable of using said instrument to an accepted high standard is an artist.
phrase: "to go all bob dylan" ie when someone exagerates things out of all proportion, making everything deep and poetic when it really isn't necessary. eg "the heavens opened, i swam home and barely survived" "don't go all bob dylan on me"
word: Bash- eg i bashed my nose on the floor. eg i bashed through 18 pints then bashed my nose on the floor
