UKC23 was set to be a big one, as we worked with Camera Innovations to Live Stream the BoarderX and Freestyle competitions on YouTube from Bugs Boardings. Alas, months of planning were thrown in to disarray by pouring rain! That didn’t stop us though, as we quickly threw together new plans and made the best of a soggy situation!
In amongst the downpours, Saturday featured the Downhill competition, live streamed, on a quirky course full of slick adverse camber grass corners on the only part of the slope that was still rideable in the rain.
Sunday rolled around with glorious sunshine and even more can-do mountainboarder spirit, which enabled us to hold a trimmed down Freestyle competition before making our way over to the BoarderX with the Pro Knockouts live streamed in all their glory!
When all was said and done, James Wanklyn rose through the rain and mud to claim his 2nd Pro Overall title. It was also fantastic to host a couple of international riders – Margaux Rolland from France and Walter Kurrle from Germany.
A huge thanks to all our sponsors, everyone who attended (and your positive and accommodating attitudes in terrible weather and shifting schedules!) and a massive massive thank you to Camera Innovations and all the volunteers.
