The hills around Volda

With leather suits, helmets, and heart in the throat, the longboarders racer down the small, steep roads in Volda. With high speeds and winding roads, this is one of the most exciting moments of the X2 Festival.

The day starts with the participants getting to know the track with a good dose of free riding. Later on, the competition is based on “race to qualify” to divide the competition into heats. A new track will be introduced this year! More information about the new track will come later. Spectators will still have the chance stand close to the track during the competition and cheer for the riders while they speed down to the finish line. That’s what makes this one of the most spectator-friendly sports at X2.

There’ll be just one class in the competition and helmet, gloves, and leather suits are required. This years’ XBoard will be a part of the Norway Cup for Downhill Skateboarding as it has been before. XBoard is also included in the TrippleX competition, where the best boarder will be crowned!
