 today was pretty radical tastic, had a sweet game of footie then a swim at sunset. There was all this talk about Kodey and Akoni not having visa’s but an hour later we got a call saying they had spoke to the Queen of brazil  an she had granted them a special shiney gold one because she had seen Akoni in Johnny, capawhatever its called, so we got on the agua dante again.

day eleven

damn cheap columbian spirits! I told louis he could wake me at nine and we’d go for a ridem what a mistake that was, he almost broke down the door then stuck a camera in my face ;time to ride tom. Anyhay the heat was way too much for my pastee cornish body so i ran away to the pool. Lucas’s dads chooting thins an some chaps from Gauto Marla have just arrived. After the whole meet and greet thing we klounged about on the porch till the weather had cooled dowbn, by this time i was feeling good and ready to ride. I was loving it and had a sick sesh, it might have been down to the hang over or mabye the fact i had fixed my truck but id say it was the Caubre good vibes. i took off my pads well wristguards and hiot the hip on the way to the house, ended up licking the floor yet another swell bow, class.

day 12

Bongeeeeeah, up to lucas’s dads house for breakfast, cwaffie with milk strait outa the udder and some weird juice. Yet another amazing day, after a hearty lunch of chicken legs, mash, rice, beans and salad we headed into town to pick up AK an Kodey aka BEEF CHUNK (cartoon coming soon) im well excited, i havent seen them gypsies in years. After a few beers some epic storys told and an all round lovelee reuinion we left for the farm and strait to the park. Think were going into town to watch AK drink beer and chase girls so yeah. had an exquisite meal, some sort of oniony chicken with rar to many chips then we got down to business, Gold black arived and bought some huge amount of beer in like our own beer despencer which we proceeded to keep filled for the rest of the evening.

Me Chunk and AK or as Kodey would say Chunk AK and I judged the freestyle which was cool, the masters were sick sick sick and there is a chap Thiago Solon who copied one of all of our tricks he’s the man, blue shorts, check him out! tried to steal someones car but left the handbrake on.

Kodey AK and Paul are off to the big city tonight armed with a few bad chat up lines and a fist full of Reals, me an jards were gona catch a bus in after a ride but slacked out so i went to bed.

sleeping lastnight was pretty hard an when i finaly got to sleep i had a nightmare about tuai and a crushed pot of humous. Just been into town for a spot of grub, picked up Lucas’s boy Gee on the way back an he wanted to sit with his dad so the danger dog drove us back, this hapend to be the second time he’d ever tried to drive a car. spent  the rest of the afternoon chilling on the porch till it was cool enough to ride. Had a sweet sesh with three of the locals who were pretty wild, one of them had a bleedin chin, another had no pads an im pretty sure the last one was smashed good clean fun though, there was a powercut so now were chilling by candel light, jards is playing guitar an i think were going to have a barbeque, no i was wrong were going out, HOT POINT!

Day six

sun is shining weather is sweet yeah, felt a bit shit this morning, too much cervesa last night, had some weird milk spread on bread for breakfast and again for lunch, loveleeee. Today was amazing, we spent most of the day on the proch then had an epic sesh, to top it all off De Gedge (probably the best over 30 mountainboarder in the world) got out some crazy guitar thing and accompanied by leo on drums started bustin some classic tunes while i sat listening drinkin some fine local tea. Just watched one of Terror dog tony’s many horror films, now im gona have nightmares

Day seven

Now im sittin listening to Jamie T waiting for the Columbians to arrive. bring on the weekend, should be amazing, there’s riders coming from all over, on the cocktails again en et!

Chapter three next week

o yeah, shelly wont be ere much longer so if you want to get your hands on a super fly one off t-shirt thats even got tits on it go to the t-shirt page before the 1st or youll be to late.

Brazil AKA don’t forget the time you an Kodey stroked the cow or when he ollied over a three ft monitor lizard.

I’ve gota start by saying the biggest up to Lucas, his family, the CMP crew (Gold Black, Dogga and Tone) the man with the horse and all the other class people that made me feel so welcome in their beautiful country

Day one
eleven hours and one seriously discrepant flight later I’m able to stretch out them long lanky legs of mine, I arrived at Sao Paulo with a 5 hour wait till my connecting flight to Porto Allegro, so I settled down for a spot of people watching.
This was the first time in a agesI had travelled alone, which made everything all the more exciting. Waiting waiting waiting, shit I hate waiting, After watching countless beautiful women go bye, an a few munters, It was time for me go get my plane.
When I left home I was so chuffed to be getting away from the rain, but guess what, its raining, I’m not even joking.
Finally made it to Cabure mountain board park accompanied but the Patrol (Lucas) and techno Tony doggy, already seen two eagle’s an owl you could fit in your pocket and shit loads of bright yellow birds, this place is beautiful!

Day two
I sleep walked last night, something about a tap, I put it down to the heat. Just been for my first ride, the park is sick, don’t think I’ve ever sweated this much in my life though. Me an doggie are chilling on the porch stroking the dog with crazy eyes. I feel right at home, the 13 odd dogs are gona drive me crazy though!
Stacked it twice today, did have mega flat tyres though, excuses excuses ey.

Day three
Last night was the hottest night of the year, an don’t I know it, no blankee, sleeping in a puddle of sweat, gota get a fan! Had a class night last night, Lucas did a barbeque an we sat up all night drinking cashasa and eatin meat, chicken hearts and some more meat. had a fun little jib on the porch this morning, landed a kick flip and a pop shovet, we had a jam in the forest this afternoon sat on a log, good times, then Jards hooked us up with some sweet grub yet again, bedtime.

Day four
Been out grooming this morning, the jump went from looking like a hairy p*&&y to a fine Brazilian wax ; Tom, don’t forget there is 20 real’s in your trouser pocket! Had a pretty exciting action packed day, at about 12 we headed into Porto Allegro and got some lunch at a grimy little café, love it, you don’t get places like that in the uk. After a hearty feed and a glass of guarana we shot off to the local skate plaza where I had a skate off with some locals then to a meeting with mr Nike sb, that chaps got a nice job!, after that we went to another park, this place was one of the coolest things id ever seen, an old school snake run from the 1980s full of guys and girls on long boards boosting mega airs an shit.

 
spent the rest of the evening sitting on the street in crystal drinkin beer then we went for a meal at the most crowded restaurant I’ve ever been to, you should see the wasps over here they are some evil looking mothers.

chapter two coming when i get round to it.

Fatback is a cut of meat from a pig. It consists of the layer of adipose tissue (subcutaneous fat) under the skin of the back, with or without the skin (pork rind). Fatback often is rendered to make a high quality lard, and is one source of salt pork. Fatback is also an important element of traditional charcuterie. In several European cultures it is used to make specialty bacon. Containing no skeletal muscle, this bacon is a delicacy. Finely diced or coarsely ground fatback is an important ingredient in sausage making and in some meat dishes. In the Americas it is commonly known to consumers in the form of fried pork rinds.

 TUAI!!!!!!!

here she is in all here glory, the winterberg gap!

enjoy!

yeah she’s good, but florian is gona make the landing steeper, the roll in higher and the gap a bit bigger for next summers shananagans, hopefully Tuai and Pume won’t stack it on the little jumps on the day we arive so we can have a proper session. (i wasn’t there when this was rideable! pume ed.)
