Event Description
It’s on again!
The second annual Collingrove Cup will be held at the Collingrove Hillclimb track, Angaston South Australia on October 29th - 30th 2011.
The Track
Although it’s only 800m long the narrow technical track will be sure to test the skill and patience of many of the countries best downhill racers over 2 days of racing.
Disciplines and Format
All disciplines will be catered for including Downhill skateboard, Classic luge, G-Bike and Streetluge. The format will be:
- $100 rider rego fee (see below for more details)
- 100 entries only
- 2 man elimination rounds over 2 days
- Race to qualify
- $$$$$$$ CASH PRIZES$$$$$$$
- Trophies, prizes and more!
Standup will have Pro division (over 18) and Junior division (under 18yrs) but please note that you can only race in one division not both for standup.
*Groms Take Note*
This year will be different than last year in the fact that we are stepping it up and trying to make the event flow quicker and give more track time to riders, so by doing this ALL disciplines will be using the full track.
IGSA RULES APPLY
Registration will open on July 6th at 7pm (SA time) and close at midnight October 16th 2011. All entry fees must be paid before this date, if not pay on the day is available but will be $150.
With over 200 skaters in Adelaide alone this event is sure to sell out fast so get in quick to secure your spot. This is a legal event on a closed road with ambos, shuttle buses, food, drinks, music and the Cre8ive Sk8 air fence will be in action too!
SA CREW TAKE NOTE! We are planing at least 1 training day at the track between now and October to give some of the younger guys and beginners a go at the track. Stay tuned for an announcement on dates for this!
See you on the hill!!!

I'm sorry Jonty, but I don't think anyone has shown you any disrespect at all.
The "older" guys have given examples and just cause for wearing leathers based upon experience. Alot of us can go into more gruesome detail, if you prefer, as to why leathers are worthy, but you continually baulk at everything said. You have even been given directions on getting cheap leathers, but it still isn't good enough.
The reason the older guys say what they say is because we want the young crew to ride races, safely, and live to ride another day. Think about this, how did the "old" guys get old, and still ride.

they have been giving you any reasons to buy leathers jonty. Just read through all these comments, they are saying you should invest in them to save skin and a couple other reasons aswell.

I think it's pretty bad form from some of older guys stating that we are "whinging" or being bitches when our points are well thought out and are being said in a civil manner. I would understand if i were saying "I don't wanna wear leathers plzplzplzplz" but that's not the case.
Treat us with the same respect that we are treating you with spend the time like Adrian is to make precise examples in a calm and nice way. Wouldn't it be better to convince a grom why it is important to wear the leathers rather than making us angry by being disrespectful?

The problem of finding leathers that fit you is not the problem of the race organisers. If you want to have that discussion than start another thread or go whinge to your mum

not many motorbike riders selling cheap secondhand leathers that would fit a 5ft tall, 40kg kid.
fact is as a young kid, its hard to find leathers that fit. as has been said, its easier sad than done to ask these kids to get on ebay and buy some cheap leathers.

I don't understand. All youze crazy kids just get some leathers, you will fall off. Why not minimise the risk of injury so you can live to skate another day. You don't need precision trucks to downhill, but leathers are a MUST.
