2011 Preston Skimboard Contest Results

What a great weekend at the Preston skimboarding contest in Paignton.

The event now in its 4th year, is a great community event, and this year the sun shone for most of the competition.

In the hotly contested over 16 category, Sandskater rider Adam Wootton took the win by half a point from Oli Bowen. One of the closest finishes for years.

The standard of all riders has improved greatly in the past few months, even amongst the under 8’s. Its great to see so many talented youngsters coming up through the ranks.
