The Brits at Nokia FISE 2007

May 25, 2007 @ 9:01 AM by Robin Fenlon

I went over to the FISE comp last weekend and was shocked with the level of riding from our British comp riders. Along the same scale of improvement as Nelly Furtado, the UK's Ben Wallace, Mark Webb and Ben Hennon have all placed themselves high up in an unrealistic bubble, untouchable by all. Well that sounded like a right load of... Have a look at the photos and let us know what you reckon in the messageboards.



Reportage skills were low here, although I can tell you that he was one of the most stylish riders in the comp.


Vert didn't rock the euro crowd of riders it usually does. Bas Keep tailwhip air into second place.


Ben Wallace entered dirt with the intention of pulling the triple whip, he did that with ease. These Indian airs were as good though, especially for someone who's only entered a couple of dirt comps!


Dan Lacey spent the whole time in Montpellier searching out smokes, he found time to ride everything though, including vert. Which was so good it even impressed the pro vert skaters...


If you didn't go upside down on dirt, then you didn't place well... Another Unidentified Flying Object


Frontflips are the new crowd pleaser...


Get Bent...


Chris Mahoney and a new one for the bag, the lookback flair.


Mark Love was robbed of 30euros over the weekend by two guys on a Moped... All for the benefit of this table air.


Mitch Yeates aboard his brand new Simple Enigma, which is available now.


Mark Webb after reading the last issue of Ride, decided to emulate the Scotty Cranmer interview...


Mark Webb again. Double whip to manual... Whatever next.


And let's end this with Jason Phelan, the young Irishman who's everywhere at the moment. Good line.

Oh, just spotted this on Effraims blog... Wow.

And that was it, well, not really, we have to save something for the magazine right? Check the next issue of the magazine, on sale June 21st, for full event coverage.
