The Battle of Hastings is a team contest consisting of 11 teams of 4 riders, competing in 3 rounds. The teams with the most points after 3 rounds would make the 4 team final.....
My team - Joe Jarvis, Jack Clark, Dylan Lewis and myself..
On day one in the first round (the plaza contest) Joe Jarvis and Jack clark scored only 3 points out of the maximum 11. This meant that in round two (the bowl contest) we would need to place as high as possible.
Jack, Dylan and Joe rode amazing in the bowl contest and the atmosphere was amazing!
We scored 8 points out of 11 in the bowl contest but this didn't give us enough points to reach the 4 team final.
There was one more round to go, the best trick and I nominated Joe Jarvis to ride as it was held in the street area. Joe would need to come 1st place against the very best street riders in the world to earn us enough points....
(Apologies for the bad filming in this one)
Thanks for watching
