We are proud to be hosting the UK’s National Mountainboard Championships on the 2nd and 3rd of August 2025 at Bugsboarding. This isn’t just a competition—it’s a celebration of the sport we love. We can’t wait to welcome riders and spectators for an epic weekend at our centre.
Switchback 2025 promises to be bigger and better, building on the success of last year’s event. Here’s what you can look forward to:
Friday:
A friendly jam competition on our quarterpipe accompanied by a DJ
Saturday:
Boardercross Racing: Riders will drop in on our purpose-built boardercross track for exhilarating knock-out heats. We’ve made some tweaks to the track, enhancing a few features to make the racing even more exciting.
Timed Downhill: A new and unique line will be set on our slopes. Rumor has it, there are some adjustments to the format this year to crank up the pressure as riders compete for the fastest time.
Party Time: Enjoy live music from local bands and DJs. We’ll also have a hog roast and plenty of veggie/vegan options paired with local beer and cider to fuel the festivities.
Sunday:
Freestyle: Riders will have three runs to wow the judges with their best tricks on our thrilling slopestyle course.

Those are the main event days, but you’re more than welcome to arrive on Thursday evening and enjoy the event all the way through to Monday.
So, bring your friends and family! Whether you’re competing or spectating, Switchback 2025 is an event you cannot miss.
