Hell yeah

Welcome to the richest leg of downhill racing the world has ever seen. During 10 days in April the worlds best will converge on Australian shores for the start of the IGSA World Tour. Riders from North America, Europe, Africa, South America and Asia will face off against the best riders in Australia for $30,000 in cash and the title of worlds best.

It will be 10 days to examine the soul of a rider and determine if they can come out on top and take the title and the big dollars, or crash in a heap.

Welcome to the Australian World Cup leg, the richest, the biggest, and the craziest show on earth.

Comment by Frank Williams on February 21, 2012 at 6:42: I think the lack of prizes for classic luge is to blame; a more equal distribution of luge specific prize money would've helped this situation. Not saying luge needs more money, just saying it would've helped to take say 40% of the street luge prize money and put it towards classic luge prize money. I know other lugers who are feeling disenfranchised because of the way the prize money is being allotted. I'm attending regardless.

ASRA Admin Comment by Bugs on February 20, 2012 at 19:38: As long as it's an IGSA world cup race, luge and classic will be included.

But the luge numbers are low, especially considering that in previous years lugers dominated the early registrations (they seem to be a bit more organised than the skaters).

Low numbers on luge and classic.

Is this discipline going to be on regardless or are numbers going to count?

Comment by Philip and Hugh on February 20, 2012 at 13:58: When will the registration for newtons be available? I presume it will be opening later?

There are two campgrounds on site - the Main Flat and Northcott Flat. Only tents are allowed on the grassy campgrounds. Campervans will need to stay in the parking lot. Keep this in mind when you plan your trip. We'll try to get a map of the campground up at some point.
