Here is a link to how our 2012 finished up.

Here is a story on the last event for the year, that we combined with a downhill race, in the hills just outside of Melbourne...

Here is a video of the day

As part of the event we introduced a Penny Slalom race for the "next generation" of slalom racer.
Having the kids involved in their own little race really brightened up the whole day for everyone....specially the kids.

We also ran a "penny" event for "big kids" in a ditch race...simple idea, one run, fastest gets the board.....and prove you can skate anything!

Best wishes for 2013
Cheers
Bernie
Let it go.
