Competitions

Here we are again with another update, this time with photos of the many faces of those in...

We’re here at the SDSF Open covering all that is to go down. We were able to meet...

After spending 3 days in Montpellier shooting at one of the best events in Europe, FISE. I have just found some extra photos which can be considered as left-overs.

Hi people, the weather is close to perfect here in Bulle for the high in the park final day! The temperatures are close to 24 degrees Celsius, not a cloud in the sky, just some crazy wind...but the atmosphere is great! READ ON!

Hello! well....some of us are back from the afterparty, and yeah, let's just say there are still a lot of people listening to DJ Das's Set!Oli Benet opened up with some sick drum & bass, and even though he had to be driven to the hospital, he still managed to warm the dancefloor up for the club. FingaIndaNose followed Oli with some hardcore electro and Dub Step. And finally,Stephan De Freitas, Killing it again, but this time not on a skatepark, not on a dancefloor...but on the bloody stage! Everybody went Mental, within 10minutes into his set, he got the whole club down on the floor, had security asking him to turn the music down, and the rest of us was just on stage with him and bouncing to the crazy sound of drum&bass!I don't know how Stephan's does it, but he sure can make the crowd go wild!

Hello boys and girls!So the rain stopped just in time for the Best Trick Contest...but wait, the best trick wasn't part of the WRS comp...it was actually a contest to see how good skaters could skate after drinking for half of the day in the rain. So they were giving out "free drinks" coupons to skaters that either cleared the long railbox or laced a sick trick. After they were done with giving away free drinks, the stakes stepped it up to a Magnum of Vodka!

So it's saturday afternoon here in Bulle, the Young bucks were about to ride their heats, unfortunately the rain gods didn't want them to ride just yet! So people are taking cover in their cars or under the cantin they had put up in case this did happen...good planning!While the rain was pouring on the course, people basically started drinking, and planning their evening....Remy Meister and his girlfriend had the great idea to organise an iPod battle, contest organisers wanted to start the best trick contest, rain or not, just like it went down 2 years ago.As of right now it's undecided whether we will be having a street contest today or not.Stay tuned for more of High in the Park news, pictures and video later on in the evening.

Bulle contest day one: Skaters from Switzerland, England, France, Belgium, Austria, Australia, Germany, Scotland, Koweit and Romania have arrived and are either having a cold beer, after driving the whole day...or actually shredding the course.It's 4:13 am right now and the rollerdisco just ended and I'm here back at jacks house typing this update. Before getting to the party lets talk about today.Who was there? Too many to name, but I can tell you some are from the Razors team, the USD team, Rolling Rock are rep'in...the massive long box has been cleared already by many people, it only means that the comp on saturday will be HUGE!

Countdown to the High In The Park 2010 in Bulle Switzerland has begun, as of today the skatepark is ready for a new edition of the greatest contest in Europe.

After some years of absence a Real Street Event series is coming back to Germany. The first contest of the series took place in one of the epicentrums of German Rollerblading, in Essen. Read on and see what went down this past weekend.

Sunday saw the best blading of the weekend with the WRS Pro street finals, Goliath FInals and the RIchard Taylor best trick comp. Aragon destroyed the street course with huge tricks including a cork 7 transfer over Elvis clinching him first place. Roman Godenaire placed second with enormous spins and flips all over the place, Steve Swain came in third with a solid line of big tricks and tech grinds.

It's hot. Everyones hungover. Non the less, its competition time! Everybody is getting warmed up ready for the contest to start, a few slightly more hungover than others.

The AM Comp just went down and despite a heavy night, the quality of skating was ridiculous. Andy Gilbert came out on top with Danny Aldridge coming a close contended 2nd and Jamie Stenner in 3rd. Aragon, Abrate, Lomax and Godinaire are all warming up for the PRO comp tomorrow and if the practice session is anything to go by, it's going to go freaking mental tomorrow.

So, everyone has arrived safe and sound. The Razors guys landed fresh off the German tour and the entire UK scene has driven/trained/hitchhiked down south to sunny England to pitch a tent.

Just got here and set up camp and a practice session is going down on the street course. Tuffnell is already killing it and Stenner, Lomax, Atkinson and the boys are putting the course through its paces. Open comp kicks off at 11 tomorrow, keep it locked

People are slowly trickling in and the Open comp has gone down with some impressive skating from the likes of Dan Collins, Pete Bexley, Wes Thomas and Sam Davies. Lomax, Schoolboy, Al Burston, Jamie Stenner and Elliot Stevens are all warming up for the AM comp tomorrow which is set to go off!Results from the Open1. Andrew Cunliffe 2. Dan Collins 3. Sam Davies

First few glimpses of the street course from our man on the inside, looking good. Heading down tomorrow to get the primo tent spots and check out the set up.

Our friends at Kingdom are running the inline event at the Relentless NASS festival once again and will be bringing you live updates from the fields of Somerset, UK throughout the weekend.

Sweden dominated the Oslo Real Street Contest this year. With Joachim Wall taking 1st place followed by John Lunngren in 2nd and Gabriel Gök 3rd, placing the Swedish Rollerbladers in the top 3.
