Angove street festival

The Freestyle Now stunt squad was recently at the Angove Street Festival for some bmx flatland performances. The Angove Street Festival is a great community event created to generate an avenue for local businesses and residents to promote the North Perth Town Centre. The weather was not all that flavorsome on the day with a few raining periods during the day. Freestyle Now squad members Andrew McDermott and Paul Chamberlain were joined by Mike Brandt to put on a great show for the patrons between the rain periods.
