My spot

This is my spot for the landboarding. Should be the little grey blob in the middle on 'satelite' view ... I'll get some photos of it so you know what I'm moaning about :lol:

If you zoom right in on 'map' view, you can see that it's in 5 parts - the left and right-most areas are concreted carparking, the middle is a grassed area (but it's totally unusable as it's covered in the paraphernalia for old #@%$#!s to play special Japanese-style croquet :rolleyes: ) so that leaves the other 2 areas to the left and right of the middle - hard pack dirt and small stones, one is a 'soccer' field the other a baseball field. Perhaps 100m from side to side ...

... I really shouldn't be moaning I guess - it's better than nothing!

EDIT : what the ... it embeds when I preview it but not when I post? Help!

HTML is off on the forum but it works in the preview and I can't figure out how to do that "iframe" crap in BB code.

There's a link then ...

I was going to head out today, despite a tiny bit of rain - till I heard the rolls of thunder :o

Hey Kamikuza, cool spot. Did you post this link too?

That's just north of my spot :) I'm going to roll past there today, although rain and thunder storms are forecast all this week.
I know the area fairly well but I didn't think that was landboardable ... you'd def be able to surf from there though!

... I added Sabae Beach to your map too :) or tried to anyway :lol:
