After a couple years hiatus, we are very excited to announce the 2022 King of the Groms Skateboard Contest! This Event is strictly for kids ages 12 and under and will pick up on the 3rd Lair tradition that started in 2003. For Over 10 years, King of the Groms was the premier youth contest in skateboarding. Throughout the years, we hosted these events at skateparks across the U.S. and Canada with participants from all over the world. In fact, some of today's biggest names in professional skateboarding are King of the Groms Alumni.
The goal of King of the Groms is to provide a fun event for youth skateboarders of all ages and abilities. We will be offering competitions in Bowl, Mini Ramp, and Street with divisions for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced riders, including 2 divisions (Beginner and Advanced) just for girls. For those who competed in past King of the Groms events, we are told their experiences were some of the most fun and memorable in their skateboarding careers!
