Check out the X-SLOW-MO at 0:35!!! Stuart Mooney had the chance to take Gabe Lucas to one of his fave winch spots to hit. He had to drive the winch and film it but was still able to capture some sweet hits from the Gabe.
Cairns, Australia is more beautiful than you could imagine. Mountains, waterfalls, rain forest, tropical waters, and the Great Barrier Reef. Amongst all this land runs many fresh rivers. With the local crew we took the one and only Cairns winch out into the unknown and charged it. The winch was a little “under the weather” so to speak but we still went out into the wild and had a go. It was an exciting day to say the least. Thanks to Sam Collins, Clayton, and the rest of the boys for the good times and navigation.
Ok – I lied, Andrew’s clinic isn’t done yet, you can blame Steve Bates for that. But here is Andrew being funny which is more interesting to watch than this podcast.
Rowdy cricket match in Sydney last night. Rolling about 20 Aussies deep, it was anything but boring. Thanks to dean smith for setting that up. And also thanks to the Wing family for hosting us while in Sydney.
After taking care of business and visiting the board shops in Sydney, Justin and I now continue the VIBE tour up north. Flying to Cairns tonight. Meeting up with Sam “Bo Bo” Collins and invading his territory.
Only been in OZ land for two days and we are already winching. I love it. They are on it over here. Thanks to Penrith cable operator and good friend Earl Ball we were winching in no time. As soon as I arrived, Earl called up local wakeskater Stu, who owned the only winch that we knew of in the area. Stu had built his winch from scratch, and what a fine job he did. We also grabbed Shawn Watson who had just arrived in the country and was super keen to winch with us, and off we went to shred. The spot was a waterfall along the Penrith river (only 10 min from the cable park). Shawn and i found a little ledge at the top edge of the water fall. It was not long enough to slide but it was just right for a jib and drop. The landing area was a little sketchy at the bottom and close to a concrete slab, but we put the game faces on and did work. Making it happen in oz. Good day. No photos of myself or Watson. But we got video and you will prob see it soon here at ridecwb.com, but until then here are some pretty crappy photos I took of local wakeskaters. Goodday mate!!!
I am so excited to be here in Australia, But what is just as crazy is how many people are riding my board. I have been riding the cable here in Penrith (outside of Sydney) for the last few days and I have seen my board all over the place. It is pretty crazy to see people riding my board on the other side of the world. So good to see a positive reaction. Here is a picture of a Penrith local (Chris Flaxman) with his board of choice, the CWB VIBE. Just one of the many satisfied customers.
