ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

So I'm doing a persuasive writing about longboarding for english studies that was due 12 hours ago and I'm too tired and time short to find anything for myself, so does anybody know roughly how many people are killed per year in Australia from longboarding?

people get hurt, but i havent heard of anyone dying, thank god

Its not like driving a car where roughly 1800 people are killed each year. I only know of one death occurring in our scene ever which was Anton a couple years ago while filming a documentary about Australian Longboarding.

 

You can watch a video about this here Steep Descent. A real tragedy for the scene

Your lazy as fuck!

I was told about someone's son running into a pole and then died, but that could have just been my sister trying to stop me from riding, never heard about it in the news.  I'm with Robbo, only know of one for sure.  More people die of being hit by a car walking across the road, or on their bikes, or in knife fights.

 

 

Oh yeah, do your own work you lazy fucker! Should have started that assignment weeks ago.

I know. thanks guys

kooked it

urm i know of one chick that was in the world tour dieing awhile back. it was in concrete wave i think. also in the free bord scene. sam towbridge died, early this year or late last year. cant remember the name of the chick who died, but she was one of the few downhill girls in the world tour.

 

Yeah I did some and found an ass tonne of american deaths, just hard to find legit stuff on australia, maybe, I don't know it was 2 in morning

the girl who died was Glenna from Vancouver. she was not on the world tour but a well known local on the North American scene.

when sam tragically passed early this year he was in NZ at the time,

this is why you wear a helmet

A guy died freeriding in Singapore a couple of weeks ago. He wasn't wearing a helmet though.

cool i just remembered reading it in concrete wave awhile back. couldnt remember the exact story though.
