PORTSMOUTH & SOUTHSEA'S No.1 for ARTS, CULTURE & LIFESTYLE

Southsea Skate Jam – King Kong

The skate session at the park today went off. So much went down it was insane. Jak, Clilverd and Noddys vert session was pretty special. Awesome to see the vert ramp skated. It’s so battered and old. Borneo destroyed not only the park but himself. Backside ollie from the quarter to the vert wall is always a treat to watch. Noddy (I think that was his name) dropped in from the club house vert wall. Seriously sick. Adam’s buttery skills and backside 360 kickflip over the driveway was insane and Jak’s double kickflip took the biscuit. Co-organiser Codys noseslide along the whole driveway ledge and down across the end block was a huge crowd pleaser. Clilverd was robbed trying to cab the driveway and bust himself up pretty bad.

Just a taster of went went down today. I left before the results as I was really hungry but Paul was taking photos as well so expect some more coverage and results later in the week. For now you can check out a few more photos on my Flickr. Oddly, the first skate photos I’ve taken since the early 90’s.
