Competition watered down by steady rain

From the Niagara Falls Review:

Oakville teen Jonathan Cosentino was one of the few skateboarders who got to show off his tricks at what was billed as Canada’s largest skateboarding competition in Niagara Falls over the weekend.

Steady rain Saturday turned the “Take the Cake” contest into a soggy affair and forced a competition among 15 professional skateboarders to be watered down Saturday.

West 49, a chain of stores that sell skateboard gear and apparel, sponsored the event offering $100,000 in total prize money.

It turned the stage at Oakes Garden Theatre into a temporary outdoor skatepark for the weekend.
