As ever there will be a load of best trick comps on various parts of the park, with vouchers and prizes up for grabs for unsponsored types, and cold, hard cash for the sponsored. The skating will be followed by the traditional drunken Crossfire riot, so make sure you sort some overnight accommodation before you travel.
