Brit Champs wrapped up

The British championships and the first GB team selection event is over.
The event went well, and with the introduction of the boater x, extreme slalom, old dogs freestyle and the novice freestyle, all in all it made for a great weekend.
The finals of the Brit Champs saw some great rides, with huge air loops and even some new combo moves.
I will try to find the current results for the first leg of selection, but for now here are the results of Brit champs.
