SOME of Europe's top skaters and bike riders will be performing stunts at an annual show.

The Northern Urban SK8 Challenge will be held at the Great Aycliffe Show on Saturday and Sunday.

The show will also feature a competition for the region's top riders and skaters, with £1,000 prize money up for grabs.

There are several age categories and prizes of DVDs and refreshments.

Team Extreme, Europe's top professional display team, will be holding four demonstrations each day. They will be showing their skills on BMX bikes, skateboards and inline skates as well as swapping tips and advice.

Entry to the show, to be held at the Oakleaf Sports Complex in Newton Aycliffe, is free. The street course will also be available to people who do not want to enter the competition.
