The XDL U.S. Open is a one day event. Friday is a set up and practice day. Spectators are welcome to stop by, but there will be no competition or entertainment.

Saturday is an action-packed day featuring a series of competitions that will blow your socks off. Gates open at 11:30 am, right in time for you to catch a half hour of pro practice. We follow that up with the Circle Challenge where riders go head to head to try and complete as many circles in a minute as possible. Target Stoppie is a unique competition that requires riders to perform a variety of stoppies in a specified time. Sickest Trick is a crowd favorite in which riders call out their trick and then get two attempts to pull it off. You decide who wins by cheering for your favorite. Once we’re done with Sickest Trick we'll take a bit of a break from live action so riders can practice for the Individual Freestyle competition and you get an opportunity to check out all the vendors. In Individual Freestyle the top riders duke it out for cash and the national title. When we’re done with the serious stuff we’ll finish out with lots of smoke and action in the Freestyle Burnout Competition and Last Man Standing. Once the smoke clears we'll hand out awards on our stage and hold autograph sessions.
