This weekend the London tour stop of Plastic Playground took place in Liquid Leisure. Plastic Playground is an obstacle only competition that attracts the best riders worldwide and has stops in London, Bangkok and Bali.

In each round of the competition each rider could do two runs, each consisting of a lap starting and ending at the kickers. With a setup made out of 20 obstacles, of which some were combinations of different Unit features, this competition surely was no bunny slope.
