ABOUT

SPoT All Ages Contests are a great place to start if you've never entered a skate comp. Pros like Jamie Foy, Zion Wright and Tyson Peterson have all grown up shredding these over the years. Sometimes a top Am or Pro will stop by and skate with everyone or throw some free product at you. It's always free to spectate. No outside alcohol or drugs are permitted.

This is the third contest in a series of four all ages contests that we hold throughout each year. Our final all ages contest of the year is the Harvest Jam. Skaters accrue points when they place in the top four of each all ages contest in the series. Skaters have the chance to win the series for their division and recieve recognition at our overall awards held during the Harvest Jam.

Prizes / Awards

Prizes will be awarded for 1st - 5th place in each division, plus we do a couple of product tosses in between so you can level up on skate gear. Our sponsors are the ones who send us rad stuff to give away, so make sure you give them a shout out. Here's who is sponsoring this year's contest.
