The acquisition has been welcomed by the action sports industry as concerns have been raised that the event has drifted from its former esteemed heritage. UKSA (UK Skate Association) member and long time industry authority, Stephen ‘Wingy’ Wilkinson said, “I think it’s fantastic that Sports Vision have taken over NASS. It has always been such an important event for the UK but has just slipped in the last couple of years. If they do what they do for the Rip Curl Boardmasters this festival could be truly amazing”.
Julian Topham, Sports Vision’s MD stated, “This is a fantastic opportunity for us to restore and retain the credibility that NASS has prided itself upon throughout its 6 year history. We have successfully established the Rip Curl Boardmasters as the largest surf, skate, and music festival in Europe and see the purchase of NASS as an opportunity to create the definitive action sports and music festival in Europe”.
Sports Vision is the leading action sports and music consultancy and events agency in the UK. NASS adds to the already impressive portfolio which includes amongst others, the prestigious Rip Curl Boardmasters in Newquay.
