ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

Site in Brisbane

Hi,

I'm not into any sort of racing, but I thought I'd still ask here...

I read that thread on Silverfish but I wonder if you have any more suggestions.

I'm not a great rider (yet!) but slowly getting into some sliding and more speed. Any good areas near Ashgrove / Mount Coo tha / Bardon / Paddington / etc.

I heard there were some nice spots in St Lucia (?)

Thanks

Ben

Hey mate
Get in touch with Isaac once hes back from england. He lives in paddington and knows alot about the surrounding spots. I also live in Mt. Gravatt and do agree to a smashing old session sometime.
isaac, not the nueman dude.

The Skatebiz garage on that guide is really great for beginners. Not too fast, no security, two working elevators, and levels 9-4 are pretty empty on weekends. Just don't try to get in on a weekday, during the day at least.

thanks for the tips guys :-)
I will surely pop my head in for one of your parking sessions in the near future... That's when I consider myself a little bit less sucky.
I'm waiting for my new Landy 9two5 to arrive imminently. That's going to make a big difference compared to my current setup, and hopeful those slides will get mAAAssive 8-)

If you're at the point where you can slide, most garages would be pretty easy. I have a mate who's at about the same skill level as you, I've done a few easy garage sesh's with him lately, teaching him how to coleman. We'll probably go to skatebiz again this saturday or sunday, pm me if you want to tag along. i wouldn't mind trying out a 9-two-5 either

Deal!

The 9two5 is getting delivered this morning I'm so excited :-)

Totally in for Saturday or Sunday for a garage sess, and you're more than welcome to hop on the 9two5.
