Be sure to mark your calendars for May 16th, 2015. A once in a lifetime chance to view Catalina Island from the seat of your mountain bike. With the help of the island conservancy, the US Cup has been granted special access to the TCT (Trans Catalina Trail) for this event.

Riviera Catalina Island Classic

The fourth annual Catalina Island Classic on May 2nd and 3rd is sure to be the most entertaining and exciting downhill skateboarding event with racers teetering on the edge of traction as they fly down Wrigley Road above the immensely gorgeous backdrop of Avalon Bay.  Between race days up on the hill we have got a mini ramp jam and demo lined up for Saturday evening with skaters shredding the ramp into the golden hour.  Eventually the sun drops beyond the horizon and the night lights up with live music and drinks in paradise! The racing on Sunday will be heated as some of the fastest skaters from around the world battle it out for their piece of the $10,000 prize purse.
Book your tickets with Catalina Express now and make sure to lock in your accommodations as the island is filling up fast and this is one weekend on Catalina that you won’t want to miss.
