prt 4 is NZ local as, Caleb Davison has some passion & dedication man, lone wolf in his woods, build'in sweet trails, seems that no matter were ya live on earth, it's the same shit, peeps wanna ride trails but not help build'em! Except for a few who understand! The 1st time i seen this trail roaster roast'in it up was a year ago or so in the back of 20/20, a clicked turndown with lush ferns all around him, i got excited as to see more dope trails in NZ, Siligna woods just proves if ya love to roast trails & ya on ya own, well it can be done, keep up the good work bro! RESPECT! Dam your in PA right now arn't ya Caleb? roast'in posh ya lucky boy! Have fun man!
1. NAME AND AGE? Caleb Davison 20
2.BIKE ? fit hawk 21.25, many of different parts
3.LOCAL SPOT-PARK? whangamata skate park
-TRAILS? siligna woods trails
4.DESCRIBE THE WAY YOU RIDE IN ONE WORD? relaxed
5.YOUR LOCAL SCENE IN GOOD SHAPE-PARK? WHAT ABOUT TRAILS?.....WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE RELUCTANT TO DIG, HOW COULD THE SCENE BE TIGHTER WHILE KEEPING SUM LEVEL OF EXCLUSIVENESS? there isn't really a scene anymore in whanga its just me. I think most people would rather just go ride a park than spend there spare time in the woods digging. I mean if you wana build good trails you have to be prepared to do a shit load more digging than riding, unless you have a large crew.
6.IF YOU COULD GO TO ANY SPOT IN THE WORLD TO RIDE & HELP DIG,WHERE WOULD IT BE-PARK? TRAILS? WHY? catty, posh and villij. I should be at catty or posh digging and riding by this time next week. Yipy
7.IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY FEATURE YOU WANTED AT YOUR LOCAL PARK/TRAILS ,WHAT WOULD IT BE? Probably like a 6ft tall, tight 270 berm. I think that would be super rad.
8.HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET YOUR SHOES MUDDY DIGGING? not often, i get a little bit of dirt on my shoes but the clay at siligna just doesn't stick to the bottom of your shoes like most dirt/clay dos.
9.DO YOU OWN YOUR OWN SHOVEL/SPADE? Yea got like 4 shovals a spade a rake, broms, weel barow and watering cans.
10.WE ALL KNOW THERE IS HANDFUL OF WRITTEN/UNWRITTEN RULES OF ETIQUETTE SURROUNDING TRAILS PARTICULARLY,PROBABLY BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT GOES INTO THEM COMPARED TO CONCRETE......DO YOU BELIEVE THIS ETIQUETTE IS A GOOD THING? ie "NO DIG NO RIDE" OR THE IDEA OF "BREAK IT FIX IT" POLICY'S THAT ALLOT OF TRAILS HAVE IN PLACE........DOSE IT ENHANCE OR HINDER?? I think these rules are a must. But also i think that most people that are going to ride someone else's spot have their own or have had their own spot and no what it takes to build and maintain trails and are willing to help out with digging.
11.WHAT IS YOU FAVORITE TIME OF THE DAY TO RIDE? last couple hours.
12.TYRES ON YOUR BIKE.....ALL ROUNDERS OR SPECIFIC?? dirt monster on the front, animal glh on the back. I will probably get a maxxis max dady for the front soon tho
siligna roast'in, it's a kickout fools not a bloody whip!
13.WHAT HAS BEEN CHALLENGING YOU LATELY? STUNTS & TRICKS? POLITICS IN YA SCENE OR JUST SHIT WEATHER? Ah 360's
14.IF DUNEDIN GETS A NEW SK8 PARK,WHAT CHANGES WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE COMPERED TO THE OLD PARK?? (if ya ain't seen the existing park hit this) some big tranies, there always fun
15. IN YOUR OPINION, HOW COULD THE BMX SCENE BE MADE STRONGER LOCALLY?
I guess more jams. there always fun and bring people together.
16.AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST
I KNOW YOU LOVE RIDING TRAILS AND HAVE DONE ALOT OF DIGGING IN THE PAST, WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION FOR RIDERS WANTING TO GET IN ON THERE LOCAL TRAILS, BUILDING AND RIDING....,CAN YOU LIST 3 THINGS THAT YOU FEEL ARE IMPORTANT? Just rock up to the trails and ask if you can help. Help dig every time your there and remember trails ain't there for you to ride, there there because others have built them for themselves to ride. peace.
