Lib Tech's Downtown Throwdown is Coming!

Another legendary city, new features, next level shredding and $20K in prize money. Lib Tech's legendary Downtown Throwdown, heading to Boston on October 18, has grown from a local DIY project to the most anticipated and respected urban snowboarding event in the world, while entertaining tens of thousands of people over the past eight years in Seattle, San Francisco and Minneapolis.

The Lib Tech's legendary Downtown Throwdown (DTTD) has always set itself apart from other events by specifically choosing riders who focus on filming video parts and are out changing the face of urban snowboarding…and this year’s line-up continues to back that up. Forest Bailey, Dylan Thompson, Ted Borland, Dillon Ojo, Brandon Reis, Andrew Brewer, Mike Rav, Jaeger Bailey, Spencer Shubert and Dylan Alito are among the 25 riders who will have the bragging rights of joining a very heavy list of past DTTD winners including: Dan Brisse, Jed Anderson (twice), Nick Visconti, Brandon Hobush (twice), Dylan Alito, Nial Romanek and last year’s winner, Ryan Paul (twice).

This year’s event will also be webcast to the world thanks to Snowboarder Magazine and you can watch it right here. If that wouldn't be enough, there are going to be autograph signings from pro riders like Jamie Lynn, Eric Jackson and Forest Bailey, sponsor booths with prizes and new gear to check out, raffles for snowboards and other great prizes and more. Yes…this will be THE event of the year!

Grab a friend and get to City Hall Plaza at noon on Saturday, October 18, 2014. In the meantime, check out last year's edit from Minneapolis.
