The annual Skateboard Jam at Castlegate returned on Sunday 17 March as part of Sheffield’s Festival of the Outdoors, which included live music and ‘have a go’ coaching sessions with free equipment and board hire.
Alongside SkateJam, the Pollen Inner-City Flower market hosted a range of stalls selling food, drinks and other various goods.
Alec MacDonald, a longtime skateboarder, said: “It’s really nice to see Sheffield embrace skating and skating culture instead of seeing it as something to be almost controlled and stopped. You know were just trying to have fun and see our mates.”
