Skateboarding is RAD but What About this Year’s FOOD?

When it comes to elevating skatepark contest food service, Dave Donalson is the mastermind behind the scenes. This year, rumors abound of mouthwatering delights set to tantalize taste buds.

Picture this: cast iron-seared Picanha steaks, succulent chopped beef, perfectly baked potatoes adorned with all the fixings, and crisp salads to round out the feast. And that’s just the beginning.

With Eureka Heights Brewery on board to handle beverages and the skatepark stocked with additional treats in the vending machines, attendees are in for a treat.

Joining us is none other than John Moore Live, a pit master extraordinaire, ensuring that every bite is a flavor explosion.

Our mission? To set a new standard in skateboarding event cuisine. This is Texas hospitality at its finest, and we’re committed to keeping it that way, through and through.

Prepare your taste buds for an unforgettable culinary experience. See you here May 11, 2024

Skateboarding is a bond between friends that transcends time. However, as life progresses, our priorities may shift, and the time we once dedicated to skateboarding can dwindle. For many of us, participating in events like OMBJ becomes a rare opportunity to reconnect with our passion.

Year after year, we welcome participants to OMBJ who, due to life’s demands, find themselves unable to skate as often as they’d like. Yet, when OMBJ rolls around, it’s as if magic fills the air. For some, it’s the only day they can truly indulge in their love for skateboarding, and the joy it brings is palpable.

At OMBJ, we’re proud to provide a space to celebrate adult skateboarders and honor those who paved the way for skateboarding in our region. It’s a day of camaraderie, respect, and pure stoke for the sport we hold dear.

Join us as we pay tribute to the enduring spirit of skateboarding and the individuals who keep the flame alive. Register to Skate in this years Old Man Bowl, Vert, Street HERE!
