//Spelunking - Huia Dam Full Pipe

So I got woken up at a ridiculous hour on Sunday morning by the sounds of my flatmate Marcus preparing for his day. He and a few others were making the 40 odd minute drive out to Huia Dam in search of some elusive early bird full pipe. This is what they had to show for their efforts.

The deathly ascent




Jokes bro, jokes.




Leave no trace.

There is a distinct lack of actual skateboarding photos, but whatever, I like the look of these more.
