This Isn't Our First Rodeo:
The first Monster Push, held in March 2023, was an incredible success! Six brave participants took on the challenge of skating 100 miles along the Dunnellon and Withlacoochee trails. We’re proud to celebrate the achievements of all our skaters, with two completing the full 100 miles and others reaching remarkable distances on their boards. We applaud their dedication and can’t wait to skate with everyone again in 2025!
Test Your Limits:
Start your journey with a unique 5K skateboard race combined with a scavenger hunt, where prizes are hidden in plain sight along the trail for you to grab as you race. This high-energy warm-up sets the stage for the ultimate endurance challenge: skating a full century (100 miles) in one day during the Monster Push. Designed for ultra-skaters and adventurers driven by resilience, determination, and the thrill of conquering long distances, this event promises a truly unique and unforgettable distance skateboarding experience.
Celebrating Achievements:
On day two, after all 100-mile riders have crossed the finish line, we’ll come together to celebrate their incredible accomplishments. Awards will be presented, prizes given to the first three riders to complete the full century (100 miles), and we’ll gather at the campsite to reflect on the day’s achievements and prepare to refresh in the crystal-clear spring water and stunning beauty of the Rainbow River on Day Three.
