Will had a blast riding up in Scotland with his snowboard friend Jake Binne. It was a bit of a struggle for Will to get the speed for the jumps and rails but they still had a blast with Will winning £20 and Jake £80 for landing cool tricks

Will at the Brit's
It's been a really fantastic time for Will out in Tignes, its his first time out at the competition and he had to work hard to convince us that he should go.
Tuesday saw the Bangers and Cash rail jam which had no age category and a jam format. The little man really enjoys jam format competitions and he was really relaxed and enjoyed the course . He pulled off 270's on and off and a big gap to board slide on top of the wall ride. This earned Will a place in the final 8 riders and apparently it was a close run for 3rd place, but coming in 4th in an open age comp at 10 is really cool.
Wednesday he rode about in the morning with his Dad and then he was really lucky to be chosen by Andy Nudds to be in the team representing Britain to battle it out against the French team. So the team had Andy Nudds, Fin Bremner, Becky Menday, Jake Binney, and Will.. They had a real blast riding head to head against the French riders , with the British team deservedly winning with some fantastic riding. Making Will one happy lad, as he won a penny skateboard amongst other things..
Thursday was the Slope style championships and the weather wasn't great , so they had shortened the course to one jump and two rail sets. Will rode really well keeping his nerve in the two run format and came away with second place in his age category.
So in all a very successful first Outdoor Brit competition for our Will and he was right to nag us into taking him out there. Special mention must go to the people who've helped Will with his training, so a big thankyou goes to Thom Boddington at Snozone, Steve Addicott at Why ain't you Jibbin and Ben Kinnear and the gang from the GB Junior Freestyle team.

Why Aint You Jibbin Camp
So Will is out in Morzine training with Steve Addicott and Kate Foster this week. He's been having a great time and its good to catchup and ride again with fellow GB team riders Callum Paton, Ayla Thiding and Natalie Silkstone. Its the perfect chance to get some much needed practice on some of the bigger kickers and the half pipe which Will just can't get access to at home in England.
