Pics here: Hyde Park Slalom tryout
Organised by Gbemi in conjunction with the UKSSA and Octane Sport, the Slalom in the Park session was a great way to introduce our longboard brethren to a bit of healthy competition.
There are some very talented riders out there who showed both stoke, spirit and determination as they took on a challenging offset course down by the Serpentine. With both newbies and old hands chatting about setups and swapping boards, 2012 looks like it will be a more competitive season than ever.
Well done to all those who braved the slalom course in front of quite a sizeable crowd!
