Live - Newton's Nation 2012

OK folks, we're back after just a three-day break. The ASRA team has landed in Bathurst, and despite advance warnings of how cold it is we've still been surprised - it's brutally cold. My first task here was to buy some fingerless gloves and a very attractive hat:

Once suitably warmed we got settled into our luxury digs before heading out for some twilight mini-ramp action at the festival site. It's a 6' ramp, so more of a maxi-mini really, and it took its toll with Trav and Haggy taking some hard slams.

A blurry Trav heads for the coping, while Haggy, Blackwood, Pete and the Van of Love look on

Yes, it was cold up there. Bring your woolies. See you tomorrow. Rider check-in starts at midday at the Flannery Skillset Centre.

The thing that should be on the live feed - Striker eating a whole pineapple - just munching into the thing, skin and all. It's a sight.

Sydney OG grom Gabe pushes off. Then the track will close for some reason. But we'll be back.

Meanwhile Dalua entertains us on the start line with handstands.

Matt K doesn't bother with footbreaking into Forest - he just surfs it and goes into 8th place.

Just a reminder...tomorrow for skateboarding we have no timed qualifiers - it's all head-to-head racing. Here's the vaguely sex-ed style diagram that explains it:
