Southbank, Melbourne – Feb 2010

For the past 3 weeks, Tuesday nights in Melbourne have seen a decent gathering of rollers the Riverslide skatepark. If you’re up for some chill sessions you should come down and check it out.

During this time we’ve also made some new international friends by the name of Dave (USA) and Zack (Europe) – So shout outs to those guys.

Last night a few of us went for a look down Southbank by the Yarra river, Unfortunately I didn’t have my sync cables fso was relying on the SB-26′s optical slave function..

Here’s a few simple snaps I ran off while we were there.

Upcoming: 2009 VIC Inline Titles

Keep an eye out next week for my photos/coverage from the VICTORIAN INLINE TITLES run by RollVic, taking place in Ballarat on the 28th of November 2009. I’ll be posting updates to our local Aussie Rolling source, EMESCE as well.

Apologies for the lack of updates during the past two weeks. The weather in Melbourne has been BLOODY HOT..and I hate skating in 35c weather.

Beer, shorts and a wifebeater is the way to be on a hot Melbourne day. Agree?

This is one of those shots out of the archive. I took it with my good old Canon 300D – My first SLR. Its dated 20/4/2006 and from what I remember I was just wondering around the city, sighted this, lined up the shot and fired away. This is on Little Collins St, looking down The Causeway (one of the many interesting lanes in Melbourne). The Big Issue is typically sold by homeless people trying to make some money, earning half of the profits from the magazine they sell. Good to see these people giving it a shot, instead of just slumming it around the place begging for money. I keep on saying I want to buy one… and I will one day.
