Round 4 of the Freestyle Now Western Australian Skatepark Series took place in the picturesque location of Margaret River, about 300kms south of Perth. The skatepark has been there for about 14 years now and it is still a rad place to session. The competition has a great turn out of both local and out of town shredders. Over the course of the afternoon there were 45 competitors all throwing down as well as two girls in the girls only class. At the end of the competition everyone walked away with a prize for their efforts all thanks to the Shire of Margaret River Augusta and our supporters, Stowaway distribution, Sacrifice scooters and 4 skateboard Co.
Laurence Bakewell was on fire in Margaret River. Consistency and radness were with him on this day, bomb 360 dip over the spine.
Clockwise from top left – Shane Ellis was going higher than most over the hip – Jolan Bonelli knows the Margaret River skatepark well, grown up skating the transitions shows, smith grind over transfer – Destiny Moke was one of two girls that hit up the competition, it’s good to see more females rolling in a mainly male dominated sports – Jack Carwardine made the trip from Perth thanks to his dad, he has only been riding for just over a year and is progressing well, cancan over the wedge hip.
Clockwise from top left – local radster Frazer Halden entered in the biginners class only to wind up taking 3rd in Advanced after he was moved up due to his ability, this crazy looking 360 just shows his skills – Anarki Hunter is spinning more than a 540 – Dylan Schmidt rolled out the big tricks and lines in Margaret River but ended up 4 points behind Laurence Bakewell for second, the cactus said put em up – Tom Brown has no bones, he is boneless.
