King of Concrete was founded in 1988 and held at Southsea Skatepark. It emerged as a progressive development from the King of the Skateparks competition, featuring bowls, flatland, and quarterpipes. It quickly became the go to competition of the 80s and 90s a true celebration of BMX, celebrating the true spirit of BMX, and not only putting pros on display but also inspiring the next generation of riders.

This video is a BMX edit I’ve made from clips off my camera roll. If I’m honest I was debating whether to post this or not because I feel like it doesn’t show my capabilities on the bike but let me explain! I’ve been trying to film a proper edit for a while but unfortunately due to circumstances I haven’t been able to film a lot and won’t be able to for quite a while now. But that being said I’ve regretted not posting videos I’ve made in the past as it would’ve been nice to watch them back now and enjoy the memories of growing up riding with everyone but unfortunately they’re lost!

Huckfest: King Of Concrete 1997 - Southsea Skatepark - Highlights by Neil Waddington.

Filmed with the new Lumix GH5S. I wanted to test out how well the camera worked in low light and there was nowhere better than on my doorstep than the skatepark in my hometown of Southsea. The guys at the Southsea Skatepark were kind enough to allow us to come and film with Oakley and Jak. The boys were great to shoot with and it was awesome to see how much everyone down the skatepark loves the place and what they do day to day there.
