Although our two Vert specialists Oakley and Jake are disappointed at there being no vert ramp (and certain prize money!!) they will still be competing in the mini ramp competition along with Steve Melia. Ross Zajac will be our entrant into the pro street. We will also be represented in the open competition by Aimy Brady, Sean Mollan and Chris Langford! I'm sure you will agree the courses look great especially the mini!!
