ASRA - Australian Skateboard Racing Association

The ASRA crew are are now ensconced in their luxury villa in Bathurst, preparing for the coming weekend. Grom Cooper is here with us on work experience and he just made a delicious pizza - nice one Coops.


We've been working hard, busy posing with money:


and fake money:


and tomorrow it'll be time to put out the hay bales. The vert ramp was built today, and the top of the mountain is starting to turn into a festival site.

Stay tuned to this thread for more of the inside info. When the race starts (Friday morning folks!) I'll be posting some commentary here.

Who made that decision? Is this for real or just your opinion? First I've heard of it and it was my cash or most of it anyways.

As Ado said, ASRA gave away more money than what the sponsors put in. So Ado didn't put ALL the money up.

This year ASRA returned a bigger percentage of the entry fee money as prize money. It was a decision ASRA made last year, that they should try to step up prize money. To do that, it can not all come from sponsors. ASRA loves the sponsors, I'm one of them, and it would be hard to do events without them. In 2009 Ado saved the day with his awesome support. This year it was equally generous.

Big tip of the hat off to ASRA for pushing themselves to make a commitment to the competitors to give out more prize money.
