This is a group for W.A riders to join, so we can organise skate meets, downhill runs, carpark runs, city runs, Rottnest island runs and comps... all welcome.. lets get the ball rolling to build gatherings as held on the east coast....
Hey Michael. Get some Modus 5's, or 7's. They are $45 and $55 a set respectively. Both are really fast, robust bearings. Head over to Momentum Skate and check them out.

ben, your best bet is to join the face book group https://www.facebook.com/groups/westausdownhill/
this is where you will find most people willing to organise a skate session.

Hi there, not sure if anyone still uses this, but I'm wondering if anyone is interested in catching up for a skate north of the river (in Perth obviously)? I'm really looking for someone who has a rough idea about safety slides if possible (which I'm struggling to get down coleman's and I have no one in my area that can tell me what I'm doing wrong). I'd probably shout you lunch or something if anyone is interested.
