S3 Supergirl Jam to Rock Huntington Beach
E365> Event - Tuesday July 22 2008
E365 -- For the second consecutive year the S3 Supergirl Jam-the Action Sports Industry's largest female-only Action Sports event hits the beaches of Southern California, this time in the shadows of the legendary Huntington Beach Pier.
The unique three-day event featuring surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding competitions will run in conjunction with the 2008 Honda U.S. Open of Surfing and is guaranteed to be jam-packed full of fun extras such as a free skateboarding clinics, autograph sessions, sponsor booths and live music.
Top female skateboarders, snowboarders, inline skaters and surfers from all over the world will come together in Huntington Beach to shred a vert ramp, street course and a bowl (a new element for this year), alongside a Snowboard Rail (yes, there will be snow at Huntington Beach). In addition to all the on-shore action, the Supergirl Junior Pro, officially sanctioned by the ASP, will crown the event's top 18 year-old or younger female surfer.
Skateboarders Cara-Beth Burnside, Mimi Knoop, Vanessa Torres, and Lacey Baker are to participate alongside snowboarders Jamie Anderson and Chanelle Sladics and inline skate legend Fabiola da Silva.
2007 saw eight-foot airs and backflips on the vert ramp from Fabiola da Silva, tré flips on the street course from Lacey Baker, as well as a host of ladies shredding the snowboard rail in a best trick competition. 2008 is shaping up to be even better with the addition of a bowl competition and the Supergirl Junior Pro surfing event.
As if that weren't enough, there will be musical performances from some great, all-female bands, including The Donnas and Clique Girlz.
The S3 Supergirl Jam is completely free to the public, so head down to Huntington Beach July 25-27.
