Event Description

A Rad day of training for the groms. Or even the groms at heart.
Hone your footbreaking, sliding and style skills.
The better you are at stopping and sliding the more confidence you will have.
Benbro, Jacko, and others will be there to impart their wisdom.
And great wisdom it is!
No Helmet - No Skate
No Sliding Gloves - No Skate
Knee pads also. Even Elbow pads if you have them. If not ask Santa.
There might also be free stuff if you are lucky.
Bring your own water, lots of it, and lunch.
If under 16 parents permission required.
Call me on 0417 477 187. Cheers BJ.
I am limiting it to 15 GROMS to RSVP here.

I have approx 5 local groms that don't belong to this site coming also to make it 20 total plus the skaters that will be teaching you all.

Let us know if you need a lift from Cardiff station.

Premium Member Comment by BJ on January 16, 2011 at 17:29: I would like to thank everyone for taday.

Ben & Jacko for spreading their knowledge and enthusiasm.

Brad for taking on the Younguns. My son Ethan, 7yr old, was stoked. Thanks.

And all the other skaters that helped Ben & Jacko.

My son, Anthony, and his mates didn't want to leave. We skated till 3.30. Took some vids and will post soon.

Will post pictures in the next few days.

We are definately having another one in approx 3 months. So keep an eye out for it.

Charles. Thank you and your mates for being fantastic groms. Ultra polite. Good to see. You will go far.

Thanks to all the sponsors for the give aways. Jacob who won the Helmet from Brad in the helmet toss can't believe that he won it. He will be smiling for months. I reckon he will be smiling tonight in his sleep.

The best thing that came from today is the confidence that they all will be taking with them to their next session.

Great day.
