Who Run it!?
Put on by Monster Energy, Vans, Dickies & Keen Ramps, it features your favourite hit disguised as your favourite characters. This year, watch the return of The Joker, Batman backing him up and Hazard Man getting buck! Try and guess who's who.
Health & Safety Nightmare
The only thing stopping flying boards being catapulted down a hill is absolutely nothing, except several Jesuses parting the sea of skaters to provide The Joker a runaway. Absolute carnage and a great day out.
