Event Description
Hornsby Industrial Estate is the test facility for a full blown attempt at drift longboarding.
What is it?
Racing down a steep wide hill between cones, cardboard banks and through gates, in slalom and head to head racing.
Speeds over 70, thane lines over 20m, maximum level of stoke and adrenaline.
Gear
Ride whatever wheels you want. I was going to ban square-lipped wheels but a set of dusted InHeats will rock on this track and plenty of sideways action will still be going down.
Rego
$20 entry.
Rider Limits
- Opens: 32
- Womens: 8
What else?
Heaps of give aways, beer and bbq all day.
ASRA points awarded!!!
I'm keen as mustard to kick some ass and will post a demo video of the track and idea.

Jacko, you're stressing me out man. I CAN'T RACE IN BLUE SOCKS EITHER. Or what if I throw out all my blue socks? But wait....then I might have NO clean socks on the day. I might have to race in dirty soks or no socks. GAH! THIS IS TOO MUCH.
I have to go turn the light switch on and off 35 times now or something bad will happen.

kieran, how bout you just stop asking all these questions and just show up? what if its a beginers race? is that going to stop you? what if its an advanced race? what if its wet? what if the only socks you can find on the day are blue ones? what if your shoe lace breaks? what if you cant get a ride there, will the race be changed?
stop asking silly questions and just get stoked. go if your keen on skateboarding events. stay home if your so undeceive about weather your going to wear a green hat or a red hat
