Skaters show off their skills at Uckfield skate park
Skaters showed their skills at an event at the Uckfield skate park on Saturday.
The Wild in the Parks event was organised by Volcom and included a day of competitions and prizes, free to enter and free to watch.
Organiser Kevin Parrott said: "Wild in the Parks is for young up and coming skaters to come out and show their skills."
Ben Powell of Sidewalk magazine added: "Think of the event like a best trick contest, skaters are judged on the tricks they pull. Local skaters have shown enthusiasm for the event and we have over 65 skaters who have entered the competition from all over the UK as well as local skaters."
