How are you Eddy? The flag still lives on here my brother.

We are going through a bit of a crisis down here . Its a downer when your support gets used up elsewhere. Lucky enough we have good solid personal support that should get us through.

ASRA (Australian Skateboard Racing Association) here in Australia was originally made due to the increase and popularity of Slalom. More prody was brought in from overseas and the raise of the sport became second to none for a few years. We had a load of memberships which enabled us to hold a series...

I would have to agree wit Marcus. A basic criteria met and then approved. I have to admit, my timer (BTS) is great for sessions and training and is faultless to its capabilities. But it worries me that you cant run a world class event unless you have an approved timer. This doesnt even happen in WC ...

Nice Steve, did you get the split going?

Jani Soderhall has been kind enough to give us our own little hangout. So we will be posting up events, results and what ever is cooking down here. Thanks Jani.

Hangloose,

Brains been active for a while in that department. I cant understand why dudes keep making trucks that you have to wedge to no end just to get them to turn well. Its been 40 years and no one has worked it out yet. They all seem to be taking the same design and making it more fancy and tecnical. Its ...

Hmmm interesting.

So in reality there are only 2 trucks of pro status for the front, Racetrack - X and GOG? Without modification of course. I am leaving out Seismic, it takes a core Seismic enthusiast to ride these.

Yeh the thought has crossed my mind a few times Adrian, dont you worry. But a Splitfire on the front? Ive heard plenty a good rave with them as a back truck. Just how do the perform as a front?

Hey Tim,
Got anything front truck wise that you want to part with?

The prizes are small but the accolades are huge! A five race series with 5 different disciplines at five different venues extending throughout Sy...

The timer is great for single lane racing and you can have 2 split times also.
The laser i have finished and works great but i just want to do a little more testing on it.
