Surrey daredevils make the most of recent flooding by wake-boarding in a car-park
The flooding may have turned large swathes of Surrey upside down, but at least some people were able to take advantage of the exceptional conditions to demonstrate their prowess.
Professional wake-boarder, Jorge Gill and his coach, Jack Hammersley, used the flooded Bedford Road car park to do some daredevil stunts between the pillars using a winch pulley system.
“As we weren't really supposed to be there, we waited until after dark when all the shoppers had gone. I then brought the winch and set it up and the others had a great time,” says Nick Mangos, who was operating the winch.
“I think they were a bit worried as they had concrete around them and not far below them. But that's all part of the fun. Using the winch isn't really done much - so I think others should be encouraged to try it out."
