We were proud to host this years first heat of Manny Mania judged by Rob Selley, Rodney Clarke and Barney Page. The weather was amazing and the vibe was buzzing with energy… probably due to the free BBQ or something. The talent was right on form with the likes of Exeters “Skelly” and our very own Ashley Dixon and other ripping locals from Plymouth and surrounding counties in the south. There were so many talented skaters. Too many to mention!

What sticks in my mind is Skellys instant standard settings with a first hit manual late back foot flip and strait back to nose nollie flip out, both didn’t need trucks that turn “if you know what I mean”. Then Ashley’s weird abilities and the other few “who’s names I’m not sure of”. Everyone had a great time and there was a real sense of community with good attitudes everywhere, which made the day real fun! The day was made absolutely free thanks to Redbull, Etnies footwear and all the staff.

Special thanks to Kit (Battlestations DJ) and the MCs. Lynne (chef) Adam and Rich. Lucas and Steff and all the Redbull Team. Media team: Tom Frankham, Alex Johnston, Ben Cornish, Ryan Hallet, Ollie Timony and Dan Jackson. Add those guys on facebook – you’ll get to see more good stuff! Not forgetting to thank everyone for coming and making the day another great day to remember in Plymouth!!! Website: www.redbullmannymania.co.uk
