Last years champion, Phil ‘The Spin’ Mc Chesney, set the bar with a mighty distance of 76m, so the challenge is definitely on. Click here for the ‘Spin’ being interviewed on Borders TV.

To the best of our knowledge, this is not only the English record, it also out-distances both the Welsh and the World top skimming distance!
