Crediton Skate Jam 09

The Crediton Skatepark Opening day and Skate Jam was a huge success despite raining halfway through the event which halted proceedings for half an hour while we dried the ramps.

A few laps with the squeegee and leaf blower, we were back on!

Sadly the rain returned after the BMX heats which meant we had to cancel the Inline comp and go strait to the results and prize giving.

A massive thanks to everyone who took part and helped make the event a success, next year will be bigger and better!
