Venue: The Level Skate Park, Brighton

Entry: FREE!

The long awaited Level Skate Jam will be hitting Brighton on Saturday 29th September at the newly resurfaced Level Skate Park.

The event will feature a handful of the best skaters in the UK, including Level locals Amir Williams, Louis Cooper, Tom Felix and Stevie Thompson, as well as Pete King, Chris Oliver and teams invited from all over the place. There’s also £300 and a load of product donated by sponsors up for grabs.

Event organiser, Jack Forester said “There hasn’t been a proper skate comp at The Level since 2003 so we thought it’d be a good idea to get everyone back out of the house and down to the park for a bit of a get-together. We are also hoping to help push forward the plans for the new concrete park at The Level, which will be amazing once it gets built“.
