ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

Well, as some of you may or may not already know, our good friend Mtn Mick was involved in a tragic accident prior to Master of the Hill. He's the man who discovered our lil gem "The PumpStation" and has beeen the host for countless sessions everytime people want to ride there, sweeping the track, hauling down equipment etc.
On friday afternoon (while setting up for Moth) he suffered a major wound to the foot (amongst many other injuries) after colliding head on with a streetluge, while he was riding his new speedboard.
They both colided at the fastest part of the track with a combined speed of over 100km/h. Micks foot went under the front of the luge and broke the front truck however in the process opened up his foot with a 7" gash.
To my knowledge he's still in hospital and will not be able to work for nearly 3 months!

After hearing the news, our community has banded together and donated equipment in a bid to have it auctioned off to raise funds to help him in his time of need.

There will be some premium equipment up for grabs with a reserve price to ensure we can raise enough to help out.

Listed below will be items available to bid on with their min. reserve price.
I'm going to list the items I have with me now on ebay and will post a link so you can bid.

Brand new Sparks Buttboard! (board only)

Deep full curved concave so you can lock it in while raining the turns.

The man's been riding and making these rippers for over 10yrs and proved his knowledge and skill by taking out Moth in BB class.
Buttboards are excellent for filming your mates ride standup because you're able to accelerate quicker to catch up and have total control riding while you film. Make sure you have luge shoes to slow you down when you need to because they make short work of normal shoes with the speeds you pull.
These are made in limitted quantity so get in while you can.
Reserve price $70
Kindly donated by Adam Sparks
After posting up the the items I've donated myself I'm reconcidering the reserve prices to ensure a sale. It's too late to edit my post.
This reserve will be finalised once I list the items on ebay.

Stay tuned for links to the items once they're available.
I'm definately keen to buy some of these.
Great cause. Hope you get well soon Mick.
