Adam Colton and friends are on the plane now destined for narly New Zealand. There seemed to have been a few hiccups along the way with the background organization and stubborn authorities. Not to fear the 2400 km (1500 miles) Skate New Zealand challenge is all go.

The first three destinations for the super skaters are:

Cape Reinga, NZ 11/1/08
Tangoake, NZ 12/1/08
Pukenui, NZ 13/1/08

So all you longboarders up in the Cape Reinga to Pukenui area be on the look out for the team. Join the convoy or simply slice up some fresh oranges for them as refreshments.

If anyone spots them or manages to sneak in there and take a few snap shots or movie clips let me know. A more up to date coverage on where, what, how the team are doing is at www.skatenewzealand.com.
