Ben freifeld replied to dylan williams's discussion 'in wollongong or sutherland shire area'"There is no way that would happen, i'm a cross discipline skater. I'll just have to travel to downhill.

Ben freifeld commented on Ben freifeld's event 'Thirroul Sunday Slalom'"That would be freaking amazing, Lets hope that they do arrive in time. I've never raced with timing systems in place, so this should be an awesome event. Thanks Bugs!"
