Before I went off to China to judge the PKRA event I decided it would be a good idea to stop into Perth and get some decent riding in. Only problem was the wind was good for the first 2 days and pretty much **** from then on. After I got frustrated with not really being able to do anything I thought it would be a good idea to build a cheap pipe rail. It was cheap and easy and it felt cheap but wasn't easy. This thing was wobbly as **** and with a waist high ollie on it wasn't very user friendly. Karolina had a couple of scary looking hits but in the end Abel took the crown as King wrecker and destroyed thing only 30mins after we started hitting it... Oh well, we tried.

Nice little vid Rowdy. One thing though, can you get whoever set up the PVC rail to remove all of the leftover verticals from my local? It's a hazard, and worse than that, it's rubbish left by kiters. It's a ****ty look.

I'm sure the boys can pull it out if your really worried about it, (obviously I'm not there anymore) I just left it set up as a courtesy for the other local guys many of who showed an interest in having some fun on it.

Personally I don't really think its that big of an eyesore is it? And if it isn't in rideable shape it could probably easily be fixed. It's not hurting anyone or stopping anyone from riding.
