Im gunna go out this week with my wee digi and get some spots up here mostly old classic riding spots .once again if ur from Dunedin yull prolly know em but if ur commin down these are great and like most places yull definitly find more and bigger stuff around close so if u go and get bored there are some sweet spots just around the corner.also im going to try and put a good field on of differnt types of spots just remember ride at yur own risk .Dont be a pussy and get all sad if yur ankle gets shanked or you open yur arm up .You know why you ride if u crash its all on you take responsibility for yur own shit.this is my disclamer incase there are any sad sack blamerbots out there.mostly round the university you have to whatch out for security of course.Now some of thes dudes are cool if u talk to them like a human they will just turn there back usually i just go ok sorry and wait for em to walk round the bend.they take an hour or so to completly do a circut so ull be sweet ive never been fully kicked out.anywho i hope this searves as a got wee blog to help ya yungins and ya travelers around.ill put up a street map soon so u can see where major stuff is located..

PARKS
Ok parks if ur from Duds ul know these well.
The mornington park is rad its one of the best it has a huge vert bowl tight spine snake run with nice lips its tight and can produce some mebntal riding and lines its more street to me because its so wierd its set ou all strange with uphill pedaling wich is all good if u go be prepared to die just alil it takes some getting used to but once u ride for awhile yull see.The bowl is big and bad its a great place to get yur fear burnin on droping it is easy getting out is scary at first but just go fast and launch have fun but expect bloodloss..The town park is cool its wierd again because the builders dont get it somtimes but for thier fuck ups it still has some interesting transisions wedge hips and stairs drops go and see you mite die just a lil bit on the strange hip .
Next up the Octagon
underrated spot stairs stairs and more stairs you have a sweet 6 stair at the bottom with a sweet fountain gap i should get a pic doin a 7 set some ledges benches heaps of flat space to cruise just watch out for the filth and sleeping stair tourists .Upper octogon has more leges big sweet bins to sproket a sweet stage gap drop 4 stairs to practice yur spins and a a big 13 set of death.ive done it once blew out my tyre but rode away its a beutiful set fast and burly just dont think to much and goo fast at it ill post a pic up when sam and i go shootin.but the octagon is really good for street .ill get inta the really meaty street soon as i get out there and get the camera burnin.but im not givin to much away these are just basic basic keys for yur exploring needs.
SHIT SCENE
ok heres a start kinda just pinched pics off old skate sites ha and some ridin shit but hey its alll bmx bitches..Traffic islands are sweet theres heaps of possibility for tricks and they are kinda risky if u dont pick yur timing u might end up a hood ornement on some dudes landcruiser but i love em we have a big long 14ft island down the bottom of high street neat the exchange its a sweet gap practice spot and a good manual pad i bunnyhop it everday and there are some sweet lines u can come at it from aor end with.ill post em spots soon.Gunna try have pics of doing shit on em soits not just a web edit pic some shit im still going humhar about but if shit keeps going good ill get some shots of me or the other dudes ridin that shit. The best thing bout these and the area is its agood place to learn big hops its fast and there are good wee spots within spiting distance anywho if u think this is lame bite the islands are the shit like or not i dont give a fuck.the second one is upper princes st its narrow and long its a real good pop jump just watch the lights and its great for gettin yur tight line manuals on gat out there and ride.
