SIMON JOOSTEN has been knocked off the rails.

The former winner finally surrendered his hat-trick of One Movement Invitational Skateboard Contest titles after Clay Gill turned up the heat to grind his way to the crown Sunday at Dover.

Though Gill was soft on his feet, he was consistent in his delivery, utilising most of the obstacles with a good flow throughout while winning the main event as well as the frame ledge set-up.

Second was Zaundre O’ Sullivan, who was unpredictable while Joosten was forced to settle for third.

However, the former three-time king will be remembered for his clean delivery during Sunday’s routines.
