SCORES of youngsters and adults enjoyed a Skate Jam - a series of BMX and skateboarding competitions.
About 150 people, ranging from beginners to experts, attended the event yesterday at the skatepark at Colchester Leisure World.
The day started with professional skateboard team, the Enuff Team, and staff from the Demon Xtreme store in the Cowdray Centre, who were one of the organisers along with Colchester Council, putting on demonstrations and teaching children aged six and above the basics of skateboardings.
That was followed by a series of competitions, for beginners as well as more accomplished levels and BMX riding tournaments, while a DJ played music all day.
