Add a gnarly rail and box grinder to the most iconic bowl in Tåmaki Makaurau and you’ve got one hell of a show. It’s all downhill from here.
Ponsonby might be better known for active wear, swanky bars and overpriced cafés, but here’s where the action is.
The Tole Street bowl is a gem in the heart of the city and this event brings the park to life every year. Brought to you by the one and only, SOTY for life, Simon Thorp.
Check out the photos. Video to come.
