Description: "Jitterati" cartoon strip. Shows Tony, Jaimee and Debbie discussing what they think the term 'freestyle' means. Their discussion shows that they have no idea what the Planet X Freestyle Festival is about. The Planet X Freestyle Festival was an annual bmx, skateboarding and motor-x competition held in Wellington. Extended Title - "It's a way of looking at things which says "Hey - This style is not RIGID'. If you look in the index for the regulations pertaining to this style, there's nothing but a picture of ME saying 'This style don't HAVE no regulations, fool!" "If FREESTYLE was an icecream flavour, it would be a curious hybrid of MANGO-HOKEY-JELLY dropped on the floor and eaten by an adventurous DOG" "... And if FREESTYLE was an ANIMAL, it would be a tiny African squirrely thing that capers around the savannah going 'MEEP!'" None of you have a CLUE, do you? "Well... you can't PROVE that" Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
