ISB Isle of Man Skateboarding’s King of the Bin event was held at the Braddan Skate Park on Saturday.

After being postponed four times dues to adverse weather conditions the sun finally shone on the King of the Bin and produced some spectacular performances.

The event was a ’jam’ - a skateboarding competition with prizes up for grabs for those judged to have exhibited the best style.

Winners on the day were Adam Maguire and Ben Wynne.

The event gave those taking part - which also included competitors riding BMX bikes and scooters - the chance to ride the new Bowl which was completed last September.

Kristian Edwards and Christopher Buttery from ISB worked closely with Braddan Commissioners, who funded the Bowl, and ConCreate Skate Parks who provided the design and construction.

Kristian praised Braddan Commissioners for their ’forward thinking’ in providing the new bowl for youngsters.

’This is a really good design and we would love to see others like it elsewhere on the island,’ he said.

There will be another skateboarding event, entitled Summer Slam 93, held at the Braddan Bowl in August, and skateboarding has been chosen to be represented at the Microgaming Community Games at the NSC later this year.
