at my gym it seems to have attracted more snotty rich folk, who need to get rid of some of their spare cash on gym memberships that they use once a month so that they can claim 20 cents back on their private health funds.... also provides them with another outlet to impress their friends as they describe the intricacies of placing the unused number 6 camalot that is hanging off their harness...

in Sydney at least a huge chunk of the ones pushing the limit of the sport and gracing the pages of mags seem to be based in the western suburbs, are these the bogans refered to???...anyway, i would take screaming bogans over squawking wankers in full north face kits any day...
