Asda, next junction down the A4232 bypass which is right next to the bay area. Asda is next to Ikea.


For anyone not in Cardiff today I will do my best to upload pics during the day to the welshbockers twitter account

Great day out just got back. I'm all bocked out completely, leg cramps lol.

Was loads of fun, met some old faces I've not seen in years. And met some new ones.

The welsh bockers have some talented jump stilters that was really great to see. I'm sure you will see in the videos to come. But well worth the trip.

thanks again. looking forward to the videos and pictures.

Yeah special thanks to you and simeon. A pleasure to have you guys and a real inspiration to everyone there.

I've uploaded my pics to my facebook (open to everyone) but mostly I took some great video today which is gonna take a couple of days I think.

Is anyone staying around for tomorrow?

Yeah we got real lucky with the weather. It rained this morning and it didnt properly dry the bay surface until about 2pm but we made do with what we had.

Seeing as this was on a weekday I think we had about 35-40 of us which isnt bad. I think I'll do a write up about it shortly because even with not many people we really showed to ourselves and the bocking community that this sport isnt fading away and we were all out there having the time of our lives today.

Does anyone know if any other groups were present other than WB, RR's, EA's and the NEWC's? I'd like to include logos on the video im doing.
I dont think there were any JJ's but I could be wrong.

For those asking where we got our mobile sound system from, it's here:
http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/5125947/Ion-iPA03-Block-Rocker-Portable-PA-Speaker-System-With-Universal-Dock-For-iPod/Product.html

It lasts 6-8 hours depending on how loud you blast it and it can charge your ipod on the go aswell :)
