Adventure Motorcycle Surfing

[@manuelandrade7155]

any story on how these things are formed?

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

The curved cliff face has been rounded by weathering and water erosion, undercutting its base and leaving a rounded overhang. It was formed by water dissolving and re-depositing chemicals in the granite as it runs down the cliff face

One misty day back at the dawn of time, the Gods of Earth, Wind and Off Road Motorcycling were maintaining their backyard enduro track, when Loki's antipodean cousin three times removed, Clumsi, stepped on a shovel and flung a 444,000 tonne gob of goo right over the Cook Straight, straight at 'Straylia. They never did know exactly where that shovel full of fun landed, until Mr Suzuki (himself being a descendent of the Gods) invented the DR650, and in a moment of divine intervention one of the Gods put one in the hands of Mr Skids n stuff. Legend tells that the Gods were so entertained at the thought of billions of years of natural erosion creating such a fun looking place to ride, that they decided to chuck a lightning bolt of inspiringly inspired inspiration straight at the Suzuki design office, whereupon Suzuki's initial reaction was to release the 800DE. Hopefully the Gods can soon sling a second bolt of jagged blue sky love at whatever department at Suzuki Co. is responsible for bringing a new and updated DRZ400 range back to UK showrooms too. And please dear Gods, if you could also fill peoples wallets with a sizeable enough chunk of fun tokens to spend at their dealerships around that time too, that'd be simply bleddy awesome 🙏🫡 😮😁

@aderiley6592 hahaha Love it aderiley that's going straight to the top!

[@tahoehiker]

Bro made me look up antipodean

[@Jonathan-L]

A big thumbs up to the guy who constructed the course, not a bad job at all. And the guy who supplied the lighting deserves a mention too.

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Definitely out-did themselves with this one

[@Malarky49]

Smashed my foot on the DR this week and I am missing my bush pig more than I realized. Thanks for rubbing it in mate. Cheers from the US!

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

ah that sucks man. Ive gone back to stock footpeg height to stop smashing my feet. Heal well

[@jm6918]

Love your vids! They are super helpful and motivating. Currently working on my 2024 bush pig. We have some crazy terrain over here in Arizona but that's a first I've seen! So flowy! Much appreciated for all the work you put into your vids. And one heck of a rider! 🤙

[@garywain7261]

I’m missing all your dirt bike videos don’t go to sleep on us Cheers Gaz

[@actstuntcam]

Loved it. AND once I remembered to consider how the action cameras flatten everything out, I was even more impressed. Great riding. Cam from NZ :)

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

she goes well over vert but there was no way I was going to go anywhere near that

[@SMHman666]

Back in the 70's my mate and I went to Hyden on our road bikes and on to Wave Rock. Back then you could ride to the base of it and my buddy said "Watch this!" Off he went and rode up about 10 feet with a plan to keep the power on and come back down lookin' cool. Didn't go to plan, backed off near the top of the arc and proceeded to fall and smash the alternator cover. Got a bodgy fix done and a slightly better one in town and nursed his GS 1000 home to Perth from there. He really should've been on his YZ...... Thanks for re-posting and for all your videos as it's great to see familiar areas that we rode when younger.

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Ha asking a bit much of that beasty!

[@SMHman666]

@@SKIDSnSTUFF Yeah, I certainly had no desire to try my luck.

[@MrXFILES]

@ SKIDS n STUFF Hey man! I just wanna say thanks for all the videos. I grew up on 2 stroke rippers and now I’m getting back into riding. Going to get a DR 650 and start the adventure! Thanks for inspiring me bro! Cheers from Alberta Canada! 🇨🇦🍻

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Glad to hear it!

Where is the new content? Hope all is well with you!

[@ResultsPerformanceMarketing]

Miss the DR content

[@mateostyle]

Really enjoy the vids. Keep them coming! So how do the rest of us get a windscreen like that?

[@tiernan625]

Awesome vid mate 👌 what gopro do you use? Quality is great!

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

gopro 9

[@chillinchevapchichi]

Another great vid. I live in the four corners area in northern Arizona, so we share a good deal of the same kind of riding. Currently, I mostly ride a G650 Sertao, but am thinking of picking up a dr650, or possibly a drz400 which I fear is gonna be tall for this 58 year old, 170 cm tall dirt bag , despite riding dirt since I was 4 years old. Anyway, I have been wondering how tall you are and what you think of the 650 vs 400, if you've ridden the 400. Keep up the good work! Shred on!

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

If not doing long distance, open road riding much or packing heavy loads the 400 might be a better option. While the DR is lower seat height, the DRZ might be easier to hold up/keep straight in the case one does get off balance just because its lighter. Im about 180cm

[@SocalRider1754]

Hey Skids, out of curiosity have you ever fried a DR clutch?

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Yeh a few times, not a real good clutch or gearbox in the dr but it's old school tech so can't expect too much

[@travmalcolm5028]

Bloody love it mate!! How did you get that far! I pulled up on a bike and got railed before I had the helmet off haha

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

It's not wave rock, there's never anyone else at this rock

[@gregparker775]

How do you like the screen? Thinking of getting one but how often do you cop it in face or neck? Cheers

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Meh that one was pretty rubbish, not much protection and get in the way a bit, I now make my own design.

[@johntesner9271]

Dr 650 yes

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

yep DR650

[@TRAVERSE_ADV]

Nice!

[@TRAVERSE_ADV]

Where you been Skids?

[@johntesner9271]

I have a klr 650adventure

[@ManBikeSwag]

Archaeologists a 1000 years from now will be wondering what caused those snakey black lines 🤣

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

they will figure it out because the DR650 will be the only vehicle from this era still in use

[@Cozzy-Wozzy]

​​@@SKIDSnSTUFFDunno if the DR650 will be the only big thumper left haha, still have to narrow it down from the Z400 and Gen 1 KLR650's

[@bigjj974]

Dude, where are you, no vids for 4 in months, what's up are you OK??

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Continuous bullshit gremlins keep fucking with my bike

[@cyclopathic998]

Dude just come to the states, get another DR, camping gear snd get loose riding real mountains. The world is your oyster.

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

[@cyclopathic998]

@SKIDSnSTUFF you will enjoy it.. just don't come to bars and capsize your beer mug

[@bradjones2803]

I do love your content mate, don’t get me wrong. But let’s please acknowledge the traditional land lovers of our beautiful country before we start smacking skid marks down. Once again, great content and I love it all (as another tractor rider) however, let’s show our respect.

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

I'm a traditional land lover

[@DemocFan]

Mate when you’re tearing around in your long coat it looks bat out of hell type cool, but aren’t you worried about it getting snagged and getting you torn off the bike?

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

I did keep that in mind, take a wide berth of trees etc

[@TMacMotorTouring]

Nice rock surfing mate. We should link up for a video this year. What’a your insta?
