Event Description

The 2012 Yarra Ranges Downhill Festival is Victoria's first legal, closed road slalom/downhill race event. It's been a long time coming but will be a chance for us to show the locals that downhill skaters are not 'playing russian roulette with cars' (thanks Tracy) and are above all, awesome to watch.

Schedule

Downhill Racing, Slalom, Music, Barbecue all in one jam packed day of fun. If you call yourself a long boarder and live in Melbourne, you better be there.

What does it cost?

$55 for downhill
$15 for slalom and $5 for the Penny riders
All riders receive free raffle tickets!

Registration

Open Registration will begin on Thurs, November 11th at 7pm (AEST). Payment is made via Paypal at time of registration. Once rego is paid there will be no refunds for any reason, you use it or you lose it.

"Message from Alex

Hello friends. Just an update on how I'm doing after my longboard stack. I've got a 3cm cut above my right eye, cuts around my face, deep graze on my right shoulder and hip, grazes on my left elbow left knee and left foot. I haven't eaten food since breakfast yesturday, on a drip. Now I'm just waiting on getting surgery. No broken bones or any thing bad like that."

ASRA Admin Comment by bernie on December 3, 2012 at 13:44: Also well done to Hamish, who got in quickly to clear the crowd, and provide the kind of assistance that let the 1st aid team get on with their job of looking after Alex.

ASRA Admin Comment by bernie on December 3, 2012 at 13:30: Slalom in the closing part of the day was a test, but the crowds loved it, and by the size of the grins the racers loved it also.

Great to see some new people stepping up!
