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!!!

On behalf of Adelaide longboarders, I'm sorry to the interstater's for the only legal Adelaide race to turn out the way it did. This will not happen again. I hope it hasn't put anyone off travelling here next time (whether or not its the same race).

dudes got eliminated for no reason early on and before anyone could figure out that there was a fuckup, racing had continued without those eliminated racers. from then on it turned to shit and it was no longer the same competition.
if we do have to draw results out of the weekend it would be from the first 6 heats (4 from sat, 2 from sun). from then on is where it went pear shaped.

Racers we misinformed as to how the day would be run.
We raced for a whole day (saturday) for what we thought was 'race to qualify' for the sundays draw. It wasn't (what was it for NO ONE knows)Sunday started off with what was called double eliminaton.. that should of been called 'have a bonus round..' elimination starts at round 2.. People were confused as to what was going on.
No one was told the the double elim was finishing. It just happened.
As people were getting injured from riding the BS track the organisers were moving people into 3 man heats.. or shuffling the brackets to form 2 man heats.. totally fucking the numbers up for the next rounds..
3 or 4 rounds in.. Shit hit the ran.. No one knew what the **** was going on.

Wasn't until after the first two races on the sunday that everything turned to shit. It would be good if we could use some of the results to place the rest of the riders, otherwise it was all for nothing. I didn't even get to find out my position, where did Sakamoto go? As soon as things started to go wrong the organisers were out of there.

So, are there any race results that can even theoretically be included in the ASRA Rankings?

Points shouldnt go to rankings, everyone has a different opinion on what happened

Had a good time, but things definitely could have been done better. Wondering if our rankings from the race will go to asra points on account of the mass confusion.
