The Romboso Jam is an annual all wakeskate event in Duisburg/Wedau in Germany. It's a contest where everyone can participate and riders get judged by riders. This is the first video out there, showing some good footage of the third RMBS jam of 2008. Enjoy.

P.S. Don't forget to click on "watch in high quality" right beneath the video to get better quality...

What is that cable like? I am tempted to go over for the weekend next time my work send me to Brussels. Are there any better cables closer to belgium?

I've never been to Duisburg myself, but judging from what other people (especially wakeskaters tell me) it's a MUST to go there. They have a very strong wakeskating scene and lot's of obstacles (as you can see in the video).

Another great cable nearby would be Langenfeld. They have 4 cables overall and lots of quality obstacles. Don't know where you plan on going to in Germany, but there are LOTS of other great cables to be found...

You can find all German cables on this map: http://www.wasserski.de/
Click on one and you'll be directed to the website of the cable.

It sucks my ankle dubbled up in size after my second fall from the pool. But it was still fun seeing everybody ride.

Next year i'll be back for sure.

wakeskatedude, it was awesome, i deffenitly had a great time. I was drunk before i went on the party boat and i used my condition to my advantage to get some girls en free drinks Smash

bachlonso, you my friend are crazy! Your switch back bigs, switch kicky and big bs 180's are money! and on a side note, didi and i love going to events like this because of people like you. Thanks again for all your translations Laughing

And i might enter the german nationals, it depends on how long i'm out.

But i can stand normal, so my ankle is better now then it was.
