Good luck to anyone who entered the A-Team video edit comp over the last few weeks. Check www.caughtinthecrossfire.com/ateam for more details on this competition. A winner still hasnt been announced so might be worth entering your QOTD edits for a chance to win a banging camera, a Flip skateboards package or a bunch of A-Team stuff.

Check out Johannes dishing out the goods in the park....dont give me no back talk sucka!

Saturday night at the Berryden carpark for the first ever JJB jam. Shame on you if you missed it.

Wooden pallettes, shopping trolleys, police, special street moves, hippy jumps, car hitching, games of SKATE, powerslide comps, shinners and chuckies. Good times!

Twenty20 Goes Big

20Twenty BMX holds its 3rd Annual Jam at TX and it went Ballistic. So many bangers being thrown down it was impossible to see it all. Thankfully Alex at Nearly BMX filmed most of them and made a nice wee video...enjoy.

Y-es Boss

Big thanks to all the staff and volunteers that helped to make TX look so good for the Es demo last week. The Pros went off, especially UK team member Ben Raemers who sacrificed his hip for the throwdown.

Heres some pics taken by Callum Barrack and Ryan Slater, keep checking www.esskateboarding.com for updates on the rest of the tour.
