Taihape is small town in the North Island in New Zealand. They have a Gumboot throwing competition that is open to anyone passing by. Just pick one up and swing it as far as you can. The current records were marked and it was so much fun trying to beat the record! Can you spot the flying boot? #trovember #hiddengem #newzealand #taihape #flyinggumboots
