EXTREME SPORTS LANDS WELL IN CITY
The Dubai Desert Extreme 2004 Amateur Championship — held at the Dubai Desert Extreme Skate Park, Wonderland, over the weekend — proved a huge success, with both skillful and entertaining local and international athletes coming together.
The competition included skateboarding, BMX and aggressive inline skating. Additional entertainment included performances by local rock bands, Sandwash and Liptricks. Reaching its climax on Friday with the finals, winners from the three sports categories were announced.
While Colm Noonan took the honours in the skateboarding event, Zayed Abdullah finished on top of the podium in the inline skating category. Wassim Azhari rode his bike to fame in the BMX event. The event, in its fourth year, had to be nearly postponed following Friday's unexpected downpour. However, showing true dedication to their sport, the competitors joined forces and collectively swept the floor and ramps of the skate park dry so that the event could commence.
