Last weekend the MBS Pro Ramp team headed up to Tynemouth for the Xperience Festival to showcase mountainboarding. It was the furthest north the ramp has ever been and being the end of October the forecast was not ideal. The ground was really wet and rain was forecast. We just about managed to get set up. After the first demo on Saturday the rain kicked in and demos had to stop. We ran the hire and ride for a few hours in torrential downpour. The kids loved it.
On Sunday the weather was pretty good – or at least not wet. We did 4 demos getting some great crowds who made loads of noise. The hire and ride ran between the demos and again the kids were really up for it. We gave over 100 kids quick taster lessons. Teaching is loads of fun, as the kids totally love it and didnt care about the mud. We had a hectic day trying to make up for not being able to do much on the Saturday. All in all the event worked out really well and we hope it will be back next year!
