Following the mind blowing riding that was laid down at the Backyard Jam in Brighton last year and with so many talented amateur riders out there killing themselves at every opportunity, Seventies has decided to shake things up this year. 2006 will see the birth of a series of amateur events located around the country to help extract the finest amateurs to compete in the Backyard Jam.

The new qualifying series has been revised to improve things for the new breed of riders. There are now more chances to qualify meaning more riders from more areas can take part. This helps ensure less disappointed riders as previously caused by limiting registration numbers to one single event.

Entry is now just £10 and the top 15 riders from each event will instantly qualify to compete at the Backyard Jam at Ice Sheffield on the 27th-29th October 2006. You can enter any dates you like so if you don’t qualify the first time you can try again. So get yourself and your bike to one of the following skate parks:

June 4th 2006 - Round 1 - Rampworx – Liverpool

July 16th 2006 - Round 2 - Y2Sk8 – Peterborough

August 27th 2006 - Round 3 - Motion – Bristol

September 17th 2006 - Round 4 - Unit 23 - Scotland

To register you will need to go online at www.backyardjam.com or call Rachael on 0845 310 3660.

Further information on The Backyard Qualifiers and The Etnies Backyard Jam 2006 will be released shortly on the newly updated Backyard Jam website – www.backyardjam.com
