For those who haven't been before, this is a grass-roots slalom bash for allcomers. Run what you brung or try out what you covet. Courses are typically open so that you should even be able to run a longboard through the GS.
The dual will be more testing. Get a chance to take out the guy who wrongly beat you in the GS 'cos your board wasn't set up properly.

This day is as much a skater gathering as competitive event.

Check the weather for Sunday 10th:

Wind direction is the typical South Westerly, which means it'll be blowing uphill on the long shallow slope. Skating will therefore be on Hill 2 unless the direction changes.
