The journey from Thailand to Malaysia started immediately with adventures at the Hotel Bangkok. Do not wait for Kenny Reid, we collected his belongings and were waiting for him at the cabin. Reed came full namokshy straight to the airport for departure. The next ones were Kirill Renov, tried to pass passport control with a Russian passport, a passport safely surrendered in baggage. Do not want to lag behind fellow teammates and Markel, who was detained on inspecting personal belongings with a butterfly knife-in backpack. I went in a plane to persuade wait arriving from our team, but policies that airlines do not provide such deviations from the schedule of flights. As a result of this division of 5 people are on the tickets, on the night in a hotel and transfers, but because of our entire group to Malaysia on the day I flew one. The next day, all arrived safely and the whole team was again in the collection.
All the time, was held in Malaysia in comparison with Thailand unconscious. Quite different from each other on the other religion (they are Muslims), modern and beautiful little cork, the other food and the people, the number of which seemed smaller than in the streets of Bangkok, it is only a small part notable comparisons.
Against the backdrop of Petronas Towers
Kuala Lumpur - the capital of Malaysia, with the main symbol of the city are all famous twin towers. Petronas Towers, one of the highest buildings in the world, and indeed this is the headquarters of a local oil company. And the first thing we went to these towers, which soon came to the local spot.
Initially, we will not be able to establish contact with local guides. To learn about spots in the city, had to spend a hefty amount of time on the Internet. But who is looking for, he can always use - only through our perseverance, and I Kenney Reed independently of one another took to the same guides. Interestingly, the first held in our acquaintance skeytparke, which, as it turned out, very little is not in Malaysia, and all were surprised by the level of local skiing. But most of all, we are fortunate that the guys were taking us to their cars, and often showed steep and not frying spots, which in practice occurs very rarely. That same day, we tried to decline before the full pokatatsya forces, as well as an opportunity to carry on when the spot and show them, it is not always the case.

Beginning with the pitch we Setas, which made for each trick, Mark - in the heating and kickflip backside kickflip, Hiring - 360 flip, and 3 times in a row, and Kirill Renov - frontside flip. Since then immediately went to another spot and the most interesting thing is that this was an ideal edge of a sloping, which until then only been doing boardslide. The opportunity to ride it, we decided not to miss, and while local security staff gave us 15 minutes to all the skating, and we are fortunate, razogrevshis bordslaydom, Lesha Naymushin ago backside lipslide, Mark - crooked.
At full drive, we decide to go to the next spot and brought us to an ideal rails, but there has been a dark and we decided to return them to another day. Then we are asked to visit the Rail under fonarnom column. Railings - good, high, but entrance to the left desired. Imagine, for the dispersal of the zebra pedestrian crossing, and then check-in gorochki dramatically, and then a number of tiles with another coating, and then the very entrance to perile. Nevertheless, Lesh Naymushin surpassed himself and made it lipslide, though he later backed… Whew ended one day of our skiing in Malaysia.

In one day, our guides took us to another town, where the spots are located in almost every corner, but obkatat them all, we were unable, as spite, in many places progonyali us, but luck smiled all the same to us and we removed the good tricks.
Local friends showed us extremely interesting and often unavoidable spot, and did not miss the opportunity pokatatsya with us.
Generally guys from Malaysia reminded me of our very Russian, who also met foreign carefully, as we meet them. We travelled a local photographer, operator and another pile people, who have decided to us company. A Malaysian has its own web site and the local com magazine. Here are just filling this magazine we seemed a little strange, since photos of questionable quality prevailed over professional, but the debate on the topic - "I have such a good magazine or no, I will not, at least in this magazine can be purchased at any kiosk country that can not be said about our personal journals.
Renow Kirill
Spare time spent in each - our photographer and type manager Andrew Artyukhov zasmatrival their photos on the screen before the holes notebook for a few hours a day, trying to determine the focus of the photo or not, causing smeshki whole team. The amount of time spent looking for your pictures could only match the time that I spent on the Internet.

The time of our stay in Malaysia flew quietly, initially spared that divided the tour to Thailand and Malaysia, but then dramatically changed their views. Unequivocally say which country we liked more impossible, we should go there and there and to feel the difference. Many thanks to the guys with www.skatemalaysia.com for their help and time spent productively. Thank you Kenny Ride for the fact that responded to my invitation to join this round, thus providing great help in contacting guides.
