Globe and Thrasher have joined together to present:
SLAUGHTER AT THE OPERA
Live from the Sydney Opera House
MARCH 1, 2008
SYDNEY NSW, AUSTRALIA
10:00am--Sydney Opera House gates open
2:00pm--Slaughter starts
Following on from the all-time success of last year's
Double Stack Cash Attack on the Gold Coast,
Globe and Thrasher once again have put their heads together
to raise the bar higher, this might actually be as high as it gets.
Slaughter At The Opera is the evolution of the annual pilgrimage to
Australia for invited professional skateboarders competing for an
obscene cash prize purse. Spectators will be treated free-of-charge
to an all-out assault by the skateboarding elite on a purpose built
set of rails perfectly recreated from iconic locations in the US.
Rails:
Specific, perfect recreations of the
Outback [El Segundo] and UCI [University of California, Irvine] rails built in a line
