Team SS20

Four young lads from Oxfordshire took part in our mountain board coaching programme in the spring of 2007. After completing the coaching programme, and with support from Action Sports Alliance, the lads quickly secured sponsorship from SS20, the Skate and Snow Store in Oxford, and SS20 Mountain Board Team was born.

During the summer of 2007 the team competed in the ATBA-UK National Championships and came away with excellent results, including 5th place in the Under-14's category. The youngest member of the team was awarded the Oxforshire Sports Award "Extreme Sportsperson of the Year 2007".

The summer of 2008 saw the Team competing in the Belgium Open and rding at the RockOn Mountain Board Centre in Winterberg, Germany. The team was awarded a grant from Oxfordshire Youth Service to put on three Learn to mountain board days over the school summer holidays 2008.
