Skateboarding Australia’s National Junior Championships were held in Sydney on Saturday 10th April.
Twenty eight Western Australian skaters compete at the National Championships following their results at the YMCA HQ/Department of Sport and Recreation WA State Finals in February. 17 WA skaters made the trip to the Nationals, the highest state contingent, making up 25% of the total competitor numbers.

Last year Josh McMurray not only had the chance to represented WA at the National Finals but managed to win his division.
Following his 2009 win Josh starred in a television commercial for series sponsor Mountain Dew and also picked up two skate industry sponsors.
Josh was considered the favourite for the 2010 finals and performed well to take out the 18 & Under Sponsored Skater division. The height of his tricks, commitment and consistency were highly rated with the judges. Fellow WA sponsored skater Jesse Ballard placed fourth.
YMCA supports all things skate and would like to congratulate Josh for represting the state in such an awesome display of talent and skill. Go Josh!
