This is the second slalom skateboard race in the 2004 Cascade Slalom Association series. We searched high and low for a suitable hill in the Seattle area to host an outlaw race on. Unfortunately, we were turned down repeatedly wherever we asked. We finally were able to secure this great location on the Group Health Cooperative Tukwila Campus (south of Seattle). Unfortunately, we had to secure permits and insurance in order to use this location. We think it is worth it - and you will agree once you see the hill! Because we had to make this race "legal," we have to charge a small entry fee to cover part of the expenses.
The race course will be set by Steven King - Come and Get a taste of what to expect at the 2004 Gorge Games. It will be a course that everyone will enjoy!
