Skateboard Scotland - The home of Scottish skateboarding

Queen o The Deen

This event is open to the whole of Scotland this year. The basic deal is to get together with a crew and film footage between the 1st of July to the end of July. Then Edit a wee film. These will then all be show at the premiere in Aberdeen and the best edit wins. 

We now have more details courtesy of Colin Bruce:

The competition itself is roughly based on Thrasher's King Of The Road, and based throughout Aberdeen, teams of up to 7 film and edit themselves completeing challenges and doing tricks, all of which are worth points. The timespan lasts for the month of July this year, and the winner is the team who completes as many challenges as possible, but who also puts in the best and most entertaining edits.
  
All the videos are collected by Colin at the end of the month and a premier has been arranged at Bar Korova for the 7th of August, which is also Tom Simpson's 18th Birthday, so it's a joint celebration.  Even if you don't have an edit in the mix, anyone is welcome at the premier, last year they topped out at around 200 people from all walks of life and had a really good night.
