Eastbourne Extreme PDF Print
Written by Merry   
Tuesday, 27 September 2005
Eastbourne Extreme is a whole weekend of skating and water sport events in, yes you have guessed it!, Eastbourne :-) An unusual place most people say, given its reputation for the 'older' generation but the surfaces are great for skating and the prom is just the best to whizz along day or night ;-)

2005 was the first year that Eastbourne had gone 'extreme'. Previous years had just been about skating however this year was much more :-)

Starting on Saturday at about 10am, 3 outdoor arenas are used for various skating actvities and competitions throughout the weekend including:
  • Slalom competitions
  • High jump
  • Basketball (yes on Skates!)
  • Limbo

One arena was set aside with free skate hire (with a deposit) and instructors for anyone wishing to 'give skating a go' and the final arena was a timed assault course, yes once again to be done on skates!!

Elsewhere in Eastbourne there is plenty of other activities to watch including wind surfing, Kite surfing (yes we did wonder how it would work with skates Smiley ),  Music stage, Skate boarding and market area.....so trust us you do not have time to be bored!

Saturday evening and the Fun doesn't stop! After a Family Street Skate around Eastbourne at approximately 6pm, there's a street skate (very similar to London skate) around Eastbourne for the speed freaks.

Finally (if that isn't enough!) Saturday night is usually a Roller Disco - Easily accessable after a fast (ok maybe a bit drunken!) skate along the prom.  This went on till around 12.00.

Sunday is recovery day! The 3 Arenas are open again with various skating activities continuing throughout the day.

Eastbourne is Fab! There are plenty of places to eat and plenty of Hotel accomodation in the area.

In previous years Camberley Skaters spent approximately 16 hours on Saturday in their skates and as you can tell from the forums and gallery we had a totally WICKED time!  Most of us have attended every year since 2005 without fail - its a great weeked by the sea..on skates :-)


Come highly recommended by the Camberley Crew....Oh and Chuckle Bunny! ;-)

More details of the event are at http://www.eastbourneextreme.co.uk/


SEE YOU THERE!
