The Blinder, RTH Quantocks, May 16-18 2003
This was probally the biggest mountainboard only competition witnessed by the U.K. public yet.
Hosted by Ride the Hill, the spectators saw a variety of boards being thrashed down the fastest course in the world.
A range of riders from around the USA, France and the U.K. turned up to make this weekend the perfect season opener and one of the most memorable competitions so far.
Unfortunatley the weekend saw a couple of competitions called off for safety reason due to the awfull weather. But this didn't stop the partying or the water jump!

Wicked weekend, it will stick in all of our minds for years to come. Well done to all that participated.
The crowd saw a MASSIVE air from Leon Robbins (USA/MBS) and a knackered Chris McCarthy taking the win!
