This weekend the first annual (well we hope so) Outsider street sports event. It was organised in part by Tredz and by Wheelies Cycles (tredz's original store). It took place in singleton park in sunny Swansea and it rocked a biggun (down with kids and all that).
Rained off on Saturday, the weather held for Sunday and things went brilliantly well, skating, punk and more importantly the main event, BMX dirt! Tredz team rider Ed wowed the crowds with trick after trick (fuelled by cheese and onion sandwiches, the food of champions) for 8 HOURS SOLID! The whole of the Swansea jumping crowd turned out and really opened some eyes as to the skills, dedication and physical fitness of these guys, not to mention they're resistance to repeated hard slams. As for local rider Danny Pace doing flip whips (back-flip tail-whips) well lets just say there were some confused, gob-smacked faces in the crowd; perhaps now the lovely Swansea public will see those "pesky kids" in a new light.
I'll let the pictures speak for themselves as I'm waffling a treat...
