Oh what a night!

It was the Oban skate jam Satuarday past with many a head in attendance. No format just skate one of the best mini's you're ever likely to. Benson nailed a huge f/s stale to board and in so quick, Div and Big Mark tore the ramp apart, kickflip f/s pivots and attacking the flat bank to vert wall. Oban local and ramp builer Stuart Orr has the biggest bag of tricks all done with effortless style. Best trick for the case of beer would have gone to him if only he rode out of a b/s 540 mute but Div took it with a f/s slasher on the top of the vert wall.
We all then travelled to Easdale Village Hall on the Isle of Seil for gigs from Uncle John & Whitelock, Foxface and the Wallopers. It was the first ever gig from the Wallopers, not too many songs so they played the crowd's favorite Push Mongo twice! You were either brave or stupid to get involved in the mosh pit with Big Mark. Poor Sprocket got flung about like an empty bin bag. Foxface calmed things down with some smooth tunes then Uncle John rocked the rafters. Super tight set, the place went off. I'm sure far from now that night will be talked about, perhaps like folklore.
