Wanak Sk8 Park "ITS BEEN DONE" - art exhibition

Just in from Hayley @ the good room sk8 deck art to help raise funds for the Extentions @ Wanaka Sk8 Park !!! get involved people....... it's gona be a doper than dope park soon !! Here ya go check it out & get arty as !! Or just send us your money we need it !! More than you do , for get the new kicks or the blingin grill !!! An be a tidy kiwi , reduce , reuse & then recycle !!

"Its been done" is an art exhibition planned for Sat 18th Oct with a dash of community spirit.
We hope to ask as many artists and creative types to donate a little of their time and effort to a good cause- the extension of the Wanaka Skate park.

Its aptly named, because, lets be honest people, painting on skateboards isn’t new, and well, neither is fundraising. Doesn’t mean it cant still be fun.

There aren’t too many restrictions, the biggest one being all artwork must be on USED skateboards, they can be broken, in pieces or in good condition we only ask that they are used in keeping with the theme of the exhibition, saving the planet, and also creating a bit more of a challenging medium to work with.

I am asking as many artists as possible, and am happy with this email being forwarded to anyone who might be interested, it’s a come one come all situation, the only hitch is that all boards are donated- unfortunately there can be no monetary benefit for the artist- but lets not forget the glory and experience!!
All the boards will be hung and exhibited in The Good Room. There will be an exhibition opening night, where all decks will be sold for the same price- most likely around the $50-60 dollar mark, so that they are attainable to both the young and old, you know we are big on accessible art here at The Good Room.

All proceeds will go straight to the Wanaka skate park, I intend to get as much sponsorship as possible to assist, so if you are someone who may be interested in sponsoring the event, please don’t hesitate to get in touch too!
If you need any decks to work on- please contact me also, as we have been gathering as many used decks as possible since this idea was just a seed, purely for this purpose.
This is just the first info sheet to get the word out there and get people excited and interested, Its been an idea in my head for too long now. There is plenty of time, and there may be a few changes along the road, but I think you get the idea for now.

If you have any questions, ideas or comments, please don’t hesitate to contact me: thegoodroom@xtra.co.nz

Waitaki Dam - giant 1/4 ?

The Wiataki Dam ! hows the size of the tranny here ! Matt Hoffman would be well into a tow in !

this is what i'm on about on the far side , take close look , hit the photo ! Good luck tryin to air this 50 foot monster bro's & bro ette's !

I've pointed this place out to a few boys in the past , finaly i thought a couple a snaps would be a good idea to maybe get a few boys ampted on the giant 1/4 on the far side , more of a giant wall ride an has by the look a perfect bit of a roll into the dam wall with some mad steeps to carve over !! The only reason theres water all over the place is cos it was so dam windy on sunday that the waves were overflowing the dam wall !!

The flow of the Waitaki River after the dam is not to bad & theres a perfect spot to ferry across about a 1 km from the dam & with water levels being so low , some time in the next month or so would be a good time to get a couple of rafts/kayaks an ferry a few boys & bikes over along with a few brooms to clean up the roll in an sesh it !! It's well worth the bust if ya get busted that is , i had a good snoop around an jumped a couple of fences an i saw nobody around & i was tresspassing forsure ! It's not a full pipe but still it looks like ya can roll it for sure !

I'm back there in a week or 2 to cross the river an roll/ scope it out !!! Anyone keen ! Hola back @ trubmx@yahoo.co.nz if ya wanna come check it out ( no paprazzi please) just riders ! I have gear to film it tho don't worry bout that !

Catty -shocktoberfest

What you need to know & who's involved.

Robbo made it from d UK , well tucked @ Catty

just incase somebody is lucky enough to be in the Penn state area Catty Trails is hav'in a jam man to raise funds for the on going drama of getting insurance & a massive fence around their trails !! I'd be thinking that some nice footage from the nice day's of riding & the comp would help make a sweet dvd , easyway to raise funds also ! Yeah i know what's it got to do with NZ ? everythang man ..... if you've seen "save the woods" or Vinyl BMX's 'best of both worlds " you'll see that these trails are dam incredible & so inspiring , an a set of trails like Catty that get BMX's from all over the Earth hangin out , dam it would be a colossal dam loss to the world of trail loving people !!!! Good luck to all the Catty crew !! Check out www.pawoods.com for some nice shots,vids & news !! They dig & u should to !

mmm i'm getting a bit chessy with the dig calls maybe maybe not ?

Wanaka/Lismore Mountainbike/Bike Stunt/Trick/Jump Park ?

it's a day for punchin random words in at youtube as it's a good shity rainy day here in Wanaka , good for the trails & rainy dig'in rules. I found this wee vid of the jump park here in Wanaka , T.P's work i think , it gives you abit more of an idea as to what this place is like & has to offer, you don't realy see the whole place but i think you'll get the general idea ie dirt jumps , berms, bikes , kids all over the place , boys sending themselves ! the slow motion is a bit cheesy tho haha !

It's all official i read the press release haha the jump park is open so come an get ya thrashed out krang bebop shredd on.......Ninja turtles man the bad guys hahaha it's always good to be able to roll somethang while ya diggin trails , that pump track will help get me to the next olympics , that's if you wanna ride tho , not much time for that way to much digging to do ! I've had a few rolls & the kids need to be taught a thing or two about safty , awareness & how to pull the carpet up , i spent a bit a time draggin carpet , watch out for fleas haha LWCI should be good at that as it's up to them manage the jump park properly...time will only tell. Is there a new president yet ?

I don't know what Seb's on about he's a good 'ol pommy gezza haha an hangs in QT wit a bike between his legs , he rides a bike good tho , welcome back Seb see ya at Stony Hills ! It looks like ya bought that pommy weather with ya cheers for that !! hahaha bike gangs ? Town rivalry ? Fresh of a the boat & has a case of jetlag messing with his noddle hahaha the only gangbanginboozeduptrailwreakin crew on bikes around here are those 445 or is it 442 no it could 123 yeah that's it , look out there badasses & their way sicker than you man on those big wheeled thangs hahaha ! Sausages/baggers/snaggs seem to be gettin some exposure around these parts mmm nice one Trevor , sheep arses & cow's titties so what realy goes into a sausage, all the shitty reject bits , must be why they taste so rotten , i would go as far as Trevor tho calling the jump park "wanaka trails" but good try buddy , the only trails in OTAGO are Stony Hills man , H's private trails , no moneyshot cameras allowed hahaha !! Dig REAL Sick tech trails H does ! So should YOU ! Go dig

i'm such a lonewolf manic trouble maker i've been told hahaha what eva !! nuthang like a bit of skitzo humour even if it's only me that gets it hahaha ! Go ride a ditch like a bat out a hell !
