Event Description

The slalom season ends with giant slalom at the Pump Station.

The Course
We plan to have the first ever full-length slalom race at the Pump St, with cones loose enough to ride a longboard.

Race Format
This will be a jam, which means that everybody will have a certain number of timed runs down the course, with the fastest run determining the winner. Get there early for practice so you can make the most of your timed runs.

The Start
For the first time at the Pump Station we'll use a 5 foot high start ramp to launch people at the first cone.

Start ramp details
Top transition: 1.2 metre radius
Straight section: 800 mm at 45 degrees
Bottom transition: 2.4 metre radius

How to get there
The location of the Pump St is known only to the initiated. All are welcome to attend, but first you have to find out where it is. Contact either me, Mountain Mick, Trav, or Robbo for details and the secret handshake.

Pump St Etiquette
1. Don't park in driveways or anywhere a local resident might not like.
2. Take all your rubbish with you when you leave.
3. Be nice to dogs, small children and all other creatures.
4. Everything else.

Can I race?
Yes, but you have to:
(a) Be a financial ASRA member. You can join up on the day, or you can do it now.
(b) Pay the $20 race entry fee on the day.
(c) Wear a helmet and gloves. Pads are a good idea too.

The top half of the course might be a bit tighter than in the following video, and bottom half a fair bit looser.

Comment by Richard Alley on September 26, 2010 at 11:04: I can drive up from sydney if someone directs me

Otherwise, is there a convoy/bunch of people catching a train in that i could follow.

Premium Member Comment by Marek on September 14, 2010 at 14:22: Actual location is still an official ASRA secret I think Wayne. PM Bugs and he'll give you location. You could stay anywhere between Penrith and Katoomba and you'd be less than 1/2 hour drive from the race. I drive from the centre of Sydney and I usually do it in an hour.
