Ferrara, Italy * - "Slamtrick 2006: the family edition" is the title of the seventh international skateboard contest that will be held in marina di ravenna, Italy, from the 16th to the 18th of june.

Claiming to be one of the top events in the international scene, Slamtrick plans to stick to its traditional mix of skateboarding, sun, sea and parties on the beach for a weekend of shows and fun.

To satisfy its wide audience (reportedly more than 5,000 people attended last year), the Slamtrick staff is selecting some of the best international riders to compete with locals Daniel Cardone, Giorgio and Gianni Zattoni *, new stars Manuel Margreiter (winner in 2005 *) and Dominik Dietrich (first place in 2004 *), Renton Millar * from australia * and many others.

This year's big news is the presentation of new prize categories, both for street and vert: "the killer" (best trick), "the machine" (best skater of the day), "the doctor" (most technical trick) and "the crazy horse" (the most original trick).
