Title: Side "Sporting" Event for Cardiff.
Post by: Matt D on July 08, 2013, 19:12:07 PM: Been a while since we held one of these :)

I notice this is just round the corner: http://www.ciww.com/content.asp?nav=5&parent_directory_id=1&id=249

I know nothing about it, other than from various clips on the interweb it looks like a lot of fun:

Here"s a video of some random folk "flowriding":

Good fun tho.

I"d put some money in the pot for Ger to have a go. We could also add the £250 that You"ve Been Framed will give us for the video :-)

I believe that you are only allowed on these whilst sober for Health and Safety reasons so the window of opportunity on an APAT weekend will be small.

Post by: Matt D on July 09, 2013, 11:48:27 AM: Just rang up to book this for the morning of Sunday 4th, but they need a minimum of 3 people to make the booking.

So, who"s in? £35 pp.
