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.
