On Saturday 25th September, tens of youths gathered at Cowes Skate Park for Kimpo’s Skate Jam.
The family event attracted those taking part in the skate boarding, BMX and scootering competition as well as many onlookers.
As well as a great place to meet up with other like-minded young people and have a great afternoon, the day included several competitions.
Well done to everyone who took part, including the four year old BMX-er from Freshwater who showed no fear or hesitation in riding on the ramps.
