04.01.2022 Here’s our interview with @harleywmackie (you may remember him from such events as #skate4cancer 20/09/2014) about his perspectives on #covid19 1. What are some of the biggest effects Covid19 had on you? I missed going out with the bois.... 2. What were some of the negatives of lockdown? Felt pretty unmotivated, but started skateboarding again at the netball courts for first time in six years, so that’s become a positive 3. What did you miss? Fresh sushi, pub feeds, restaurants 4. Positives of Covid19 lockdown-Heaps of family time and I got exceptionally good at COD! Also, it’s brought me back to Knox skate park and renewed my passion for skateboarding. 5. What are you excited about now? Being able to travel to NSW tomorrow! To go fishing wakeboarding and boating in the river! . . . . . #knoxskatepark #ymcaskate #skateboard #skate #bmx #hessingleladies #knox #newknox #ymca #covidsafe #bike #scoot #summer #supportskateboarding #fun #family #skateboarder #cod #australia #skateboarding #skatepark #melbourne #bmxstreet #skater #covid19 #bmxfreestyle #supportyouth #follow #isolation
