2nd – Olly Wilson (Wanaka)
3rd – Josh Wilson (Wanaka)
16 & Under
1st – Hootie Andrewes (Dunedin)
2nd – PJ Wybrow (Dunedin)
3rd – Josh Bamford (Christchurch)
13 & Under

Here’s some footage from the day.
A road trip isn’t complete with skating at the parks along the way.
In the morning we stopped of at Alexandra for a skate and leg stretch.
On the way home a detour brought us to Queenstown. The sun was going down when we arrived and we were all tired and burnt, but we had a good skate there until it got dark.
