Support Us
We coach an incredible group of young skateboarders in Tasmania.
These athletes are aiming to compete in some of Australia’s major skateboarding competitions throughout 2026.
Travelling to these events comes with significant out-of-pocket costs, and every contribution helps them pursue their goals.
Your support will assist with flights, accommodation, upgraded equipment for competitions, and other essential expenses.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. We genuinely appreciate any support.
