Young star of British trampolining Corey Walkes officially opened Flip Out Somerset, the county’s first trampoline park, this weekend.

Corey, from Radstock in Somerset, entertained the first customers through the doors of the new £1.5m attraction with some of the moves which helped him to a first place finish at last month’s British Championships.

Corey, 16, has been officially selected to represent Great Britain at his fourth World Age Group Championships in Bulgaria this November, but was happy to take time out from his busy training schedule to cut the ribbon at the new arena.

Flip Out Somerset offers 36,000 sq ft of active fun for all ages set across two floors and is the 17th centre to be opened in the UK by Flip Out, the world’s fastest growing trampoline park operator.
