This past weekend at the Kumba Skate Plaza we hosted a Mini Ramp Clinic and Mini Ramp Jam contest to encourage the local skaters to get more involved and familiar with transition skateboarding. We let the guys borrow some pads and a helmet for their dome and let them perfect the basics of mini ramp skating. A few first-time drop-ins, axle stalls, and rock to fakies are all sure to have gone down following a Vert Fridays clinic on the mini ramp.
We had some prizes on the line for the top 3 skaters in beginners and advanced divisions who were brave enough to step up the demonous slopes of the 3-foot mini for the Mini Ramp Jam. You’ll find the names of those who conquered said beast below, along with a photo gallery.
Beginners
1) Shandene
