The Vans Barak Invitational this summer, the 4 and 5 of August, will gather together twenty riders from all over the world, invited to spend a nice weekend in the south of France. The event will take place in the garden of the famous “barak” where Alex Dropsy is living with his roommates. The trails that are currently in the garden are being totally rebuilt to make new and fun lines, which will also be good for the big tricks. During the weekend there will also be an apnea contest in the different pools in the garden and also a “petanque” contest to involve all the international riders in boules, a traditional game from the south of France.
The trails will be open to ride all day long and also at night time too thanks to the floodlights. The final results will be judged from the riding on both of the days with the participants riding whenever they want to with no qualifying or finals: just fun riding - no pressure.
20 people invited from : France, England, Germany, Austria, Spain, Australia, Columbia, USA
