The Groundswell festival was an epic event taking place at the ever so awesome Scarborough beach. The Groundswell festival is a 3 day event including many action sports and music. Its definitely an event you need to attend to feel the hype of the weekend. 2022 saw the inclusion of the rail jam event. BMX, scooter and skateboard athletes sending themselves down the rail at the Scarborough beach skatepark with the hopes of winning $200 cash and some of the prize products. It was a super rad and a loose format. The best trick down the rail, over the rail or on the stairs in the 60 minute jam session was the winner. The Animal bikes BMX rail jam was won by BMX legend Dempsey winning $200 cash prize. Taking home the in the Urban Artt and Oath Components Scooter rail jam was Will Harrold. The Modus Bearing skateboard rail jam was won by Dani Campbell who was stoked to take home $200.
