📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
We're non-profit sport's association from Slovenia that are well established in organising downhill skating events in this part of the world. Downhill skateboarding or long boarding, is considered a dangerous sport that is usually practised on open roads. That's why these kinds of events are invaluable to any skater, as we do the road closure and secure it with hay bales in order to secure it for the riders.
💼 What the programme involves
Here are some general tasks that you might be doing:
Sweeping the track (before/during/after),
Using radio equipment (important to be alert during and between the runs),
Notifying Goal/Start person in case of accident, any irregularity, rider's jam, dangerous and uncontrolled pack riding,
Preparing the track before the start of each day (sweeping up, stacking up the hay bales),
Collecting the garbage after each day (not much of it).
🏠 Accommodation on site
We will be lodged in the camp, which is adjacent to the village of Osilnica. The camp contains all the usual camping facilities. Please note that camping gear is not provided. Food will be provided.
📍 About the location

⚠️ Requirements
