FGFS DAY:

Some important information for FGFS day:
- Parking will be in a neighborhood. You may have to walk a bit.
- This is not a city-sanctioned event, which means there will always be the possibility of a shut down. We have backup locations if this is the case.
- To prevent the above from happening as much as possible, we need to be respectful of the park and neighborhood. Chill on the smoking and drinking, we’re next to a playground. No loud music either.
- I recommend bringing a chair as there is no seating around the park.
- Runs will be done 1 person at a time.
- Judges will work on a 10-point system that takes into account consistency, quantity of tricks, creativity, style, diversity in obstacles, and show stopper x-factor.
- Qualifying runs will be two 1-minute runs. We will take the better of the two runs.
- Finals will be a single 1:30 minute run.
- If you have a frame sponsor, you will automatically be placed in the “PRO” division.
- If time persists, we may do a limited participation 1v1 race bracket around the park.
- Please be on time if you want to partake!
- PRO division winners will receive cash prizes and some product
- AM division winners will receive product prizes
- There will be a BIGGEST SENDER award presented by Ruff Bike Co.
- Registration is $5. Day-of registration is $10. Register HERE
