The Mobile Skatepark Series heads to the California State Fair at the end of August. All events are FREE to the public. There will be food, prizes and give-aways throughout the days.

There will be six distinct competition elements featured during the four-day MSS festival. The schedule and a brief description follows (you can also view the detailed daily schedule):

Open Skatepark: Kids from all over will have the chance to skate with their heroes on the same street course that the pros use. The ramps are designed and created by the same folks that build the X Games courses. Two-hour sessions cost $8. Pads and helmets are available for rental for an additional $2. All participants will be required to sign a waiver. A parent or legal guardian will also have to sign for participants under 18 years old. The waiver can be downloaded from this website.

Pro Freestyle BMX Competition: More than 40 of the world's top pro freestyle BMXers will compete in street course and halfpipe competitions for prize money and a chance to qualify for the U.S. Championships of BMX at the LG Action Sports Championships this fall.

Pro Skateboarding Demo and Best Trick Contest: More than 20 of the world's top pro skateboarders will perform four 40-minute street course and vert demos and compete in two Best Trick contests. Both of these events will allow the top pros to show off their cutting-edge stunts in a session-style format that allows the pros to compete at their own pace.

Amateur Skateboarding Contest: Amateur skateboarders from all over will have the chance to compete in the Next Cup Skateboarding Amateur Series contest. The event will be judged by pro skateboarders and will offer local and regional amateurs the chance to qualify for The Next Cup Finals at the LG Action Sports Championships in September.

Inline Pro Tour: The ASA Pro Tour is the global competition series for all of the top pro aggressive skaters. More than 50 pros from as many as 15 different countries will compete in both street skating and vert skating competition. The competition is one of a select few events for coveted spots in the LG Action Sports Championships in September.

Inline Amateur Circuit Contest: Amateur inline skaters will compete for a chance to qualify for the World Amateur Championships and the opportunity to turn pro in 2005. This is an open contest to any amateur skater. Pre-registration is strongly recommended as these contests typically sell-out. Pre-registration will be available through the website in the coming weeks.

The event will be televised on Fox Sports Net in the form of 7 hours of programming covering different MSS elements and will be seen in 180 countries around the world. The programs will air every Friday starting in August from 4:00 - 5:00 PM and from 1:00 - 2:00 AM. View the television schedule here.
