U.S. Open of Surfing: Skate and BMX heats up Huntington Beach festival

U.S. Open of Surfing isn’t just about watching surfing competitors in the ocean. Even though, that is lovely.

Skate and BMX fans will have plenty of entertainment on the sand, with some of the world’s best athletes showing their skills for the Vans Park Series and the Vans BMX Pro Cup World Championships.

The 2017 Vans Park Series Pro Tour is the premiere series for professional park terrain skateboarders.

Known for its combination of speed, style, flow, and creativity, park terrain is the fastest growing discipline in competitive skateboarding today.

Good luck to all of the competitors
