Skateboarding News

This page will be updated as regularly as possible with news on the British skateboard scene. There is currently a youth explosion going on, especially on the vert ramps... the future is very bright!
One of the main aims of this area is to let people know what events are coming up. Thanks to long serving vert rippers such as Jim 'The Skin', Trawler and Wingy, there are a number of good vert events in the UK these days.
