hoedown 2011

Quoting Jordan Smith:

Every year for the last fifteen years, rollerbladers from all over the world gather once a year at Eisenberg Skatepark in Plano, TX.

They come together compete in one of the most grueling contests of their sport. Eisenbergs Skatepark is officially closing and the 15th annual Showdown at the Hoedown was the last of the series.

Eisenberg’s Skatepark needs 20 volunteers to help tear down and build up ramps. The park will move to a new, smaller location, some ramps will be available for sale.

10th Annual Hoedown (2006)

Hoedown (2006) by Jason Reyna (Rolling Mission)
2006 Winner: Brian Aragon (full results).

After a decade, the Hoedown continues to demonstrate why it is the premiere contest in the world to attend for any street skater.

2006 attracted competitors from all over the world, making for an interesting Final 5 Showdown. When you have the worlds best together, judging one another, they will inevitably push one another to higher levels.

Watch as each heat of skaters destroy the Eisenbergs Skatepark and how the next heat is forced to go even bigger just to stay in the contest.

15th Annual Hoedown Invitation

Tuesday, October 4th, 2011

October 28-30, 2011. Red, White And Boo!

Eisenbergs 15th Annual Texas Showdown at the Hoedown will be held October 28-30 at Eisenbergs Skatepark in Plano. About fifty athletes from the around the world will compete for cash prizes in this select aggressive inline skating competition.

Past years have brought contestants from as far as Australia, United Kingdom, France, Japan, China, Germany and Spain.

15th Annual Hoedown

Eisenbergs’ annual Showdown at the Hoedown was the first contest of its kind when it was introduced in 1997. 1996 X Games gold medalist Arlo Eisenberg conceived of the Hoedown as an alternative to the conventional contests that dominated action sports at the time.

“Choreographed runs, where skaters go out alone and perform a timed run in front of judges just seemed so unnatural to me”, said Eisenberg. “It had very little to do with the way we actually skated.”

Eisenberg conceived a format that reflected the unstructured, artistic athleticism at the heart of the individualistic action sports culture. The Hoedown format became an instant hit with competitors and spectators alike and inspired other “alternative” contests.

But the Showdown at the Hoedown remains the original most revered event of the skating season. Every October the world’s best rollerbladers make the pilgrimage to Plano, Texas for the contest that started it all.

Double Rainbow? What does this all mean?

Double Rainbow is the common name of a viral video uploaded by YouTube user Hungrybear9562 where he declares his awe and wonder for a rare “double rainbow.” He eventually starts to cry because he is so struck by its radiance and vividness. More.
