Competitions and sporting events are an integral part of any game and help in keeping the spirit of the game alive. So is the case with skateboarding. A number of competitions are held all year round with the conventional yearly skateboarding challenges that involve a huge amount of price money.
Free style, Street and Vert skateboarding are three of the major competitions held in UK but the one that features big price money is Vert Skating.
Most UK Skateboarding competitions have three rounds. Scoring is based on a number on factors such as height, rotations, difficulty, variations as well as combinations and the events are judged by a panel of judges who take into account, all the above mentioned factors.
Judgements may be based on the performance in all the three rounds or just the last two rounds.
Some famous Skating competitions include:
1.X Games: This is the world’s largest skating competition. The cash price involved is huge and only the finest of skaters think of appearing for it.
2.World Cup Skateboarding: Events for this are held all over the world. You will need to go online and check for details.
