Starting today (Thursday) until Saturday, the three-day event at The Beach in Dubai will have a range of entertainment, headlined by international skateboards Adil Dyani and Pontus Bjorn, and BMX riders Zachary Poland-Shaw and Dean Cueson.

Bjorn is a 25-year-old professional skateboarder from Sweden, while Dyani from Norway holds the Guinness World Record for the highest skateboard drop into a quarter pipe at 9.39 metres.

The duo of Poland-Shaw, who placed third in the BMX World Championships 2013, and Cueson both hail from the United Kingdom and will dazzle spectators with daredevil acts.

Not only will the pros be out, but amateur skateboards, BMX riders, freestyle footballers and local break-dancers are also welcome to showcase their skills as also Dubai’s young, up-and-coming talent in a competition arena.

B-boys and b-girls can compete in a solo battle for a total cash prize of Dh6,000 to be split between first, second and third place. To register for the competition, visit www.urban-roots-society.com.

In addition to the impressive athleticism display, the event will feature MC Tamer to pump up the crowd with music, while popular graffiti artists UNAVIDA from France will treat the public to a one-off tag during the weekend.

The event will run from 16:00 to 20:00 each day of the weekend at the North Lawn Amphitheatre, The Beach.
