Tom has gone over to Sweden to help promote mountainboarding and the development of a new mountainboard school in the area of Are. The set up is amazing. On top of riding the area and showing the locals what mountainboarding is all about Tom has been doing some TV interviews too.

See the TV interview and check out the photo of Tom boardsliding the handrail.

Justin Dersham – the creator of some of the best mountainboard movies including Hot Action and Shralpdown was also with Tom. Here is a quick edit he put together showing just how awesome the spot was.

Not many people are lucky enough to have a foam pit in their back yard. Josh Maddocks is though. MBS Rider Matt Brind headed down to Devon along with his buddies from Project Doc and they had a progression session. Foam pit gives you the opportunity to practice getting the body movements right for a new trick before you try it on dirt. This can save on a lot of bruising. Good times.

Tom Kirkman, Tuai Lovejoy, Ollie Morrison and Jamie Johnstone were down at Haredown last weekend running a training camp. These camps are all about giving groms time with pro riders. A little instruction together with some motivation and inspiration really helps riders progress and take their riding to the next level. With the World Freestyle Championships only a month away, and the National Series running – it is a great time to be learning some new tricks.

Here is a quick video made by Ben Rye.
