WATCH: Skateboard tricks in Burnham

8:22am Wed 6th Aug 08:: written by Daniel Darlington



Skaters are getting in a grind and flipping out at a mobile half-pipe at Burnham Grammar School.

But it's all smiles as the week-long event sees tricky children and teenagers taking to the ramps with their skateboards, skates and BMX bikes.

The South Bucks District Council event, which is held across the area all summer, is designed to stave off boredom during the long school summer break.

Dozens are expected to flock to the free skate park in Hogfair Lane at the event which runs from Monday to Friday this week.

Anyone interested in getting their skates on can pop down between 10am and 4pm up until Friday.

Watch some of the kids in action in our video above.
