It's funny what you find.

Every so often I pop onto the SkateNewZealand Google Analytics site and see how the website is doing and how people come across our website. One thing I noticed was that in the last month or so there has been a lot of hits coming from a site called Northwest Longboarding.

After a bit of rooting about it seems that out man Sheldon is the reason. Right there on the front page was a big article about SkateNewZealand and a pic (see below). This is Sheldon skating at a place called Tolt Hill where he got over 50mph. Now, I consider myself quite confident at downhill. I think that i have possibly got somehwere near 35 when I raced a Gurston. Over 50mph, however is something different, very, very fast indeed.

Not long now people. Not long at all.
