360 flip - Glastonbury Skateboarders

Inspired by the rattling of skate wheels at all hours of the day and night through our town, we took our microphone (and stills camera) to the Market Cross in Glastonbury. Here, at the monument, the town’s skateboarders practise their art and hone their skills.

Set to original music by the Bristol-based music outfit Babyhead, the programme covers the culture of skateboarding and the long running campaign for a skate park in Glastonbury.
