Surf Shop news
For Surf Shop 2008 the organisers have created a dedicated outdoor demonstration area for visitors to test the kit on show for themselves.
There's no better way to sample the latest hardware than seeing it in action or trying it out first-hand. New features for 2008 include live daily demos from King Ramps with brand sponsored riders on their newest ramp, and Surf Shop also welcomes back Street Surfing in action over the three days.
In addition, 2008 brings the launch of a brand new sport that allows riders to combine the moves of surfing, skate and snowboarding, it's so new the founders say the tricks haven't even been named yet! Brush Boarding is a new board sport that simulates primarily surfing and snowboarding. Different riders use varying board shapes when Brush Boarding. Surfers go for the longer boards so they can simulate carving down a wave; skateboarders go for the shortest boards so they can practice their tricks; snowboarders want it all, so they can move up and down the ramp.
The Brush Ramp can be seen at a number of extreme sports events and activity centres over the summer, and will be live in action for its trade show launch at Surf Shop, which runs from September 2-4. For more information, visit http://www.surfshopexpo.com/
