THE SKATE GYPSY + 2 AUSTRIANS

DAY 4 

After the 3 previous days of skating the Hobart terrain it was time for nature and where else better than Tasmania.  We did a little research and headed our way down to the Styx Valley home to some of the tallest trees in the world and our playground for the day.  On our journey Troy spotted an echidna slowly potting along the road, Screeching brakes - Speedy U Turn and the homies were running after the little spikey creature and god dayhm did he put up a fight!  Alex a giant of men was chosen to retrieve the creature from his half dug burrow - this took almost 15 mins and the footage is incredible.
Moving on with Sandwiches packed, boots strapped and doobies rolled we trekked through the moist forrest and found some fuck off trees.  After capturing a bunch of tourist snaps we headed down towards the river where the Austrians took to an old dead tree whilst yelling gorilla like noises OOO OOooOOO AHHH ahhhh OOO OOOoooOO

We decided to drive deeper into the forrest and came across a massacre of trees it was a terrible site and on that note it was time to bail.  On our mission home we parked the car on the side of the road and filled garbage bags full of black berries growing on bushes for kilometres besides the road - this made for an epic desert and next mornings pancake mix!
