A few weeks after cars were zooming up Knox Mountain, it was time for skaters to race their way downhill on Saturday.
June 17 marked the first day of the second annual Knox Mountain Downhill event, where long boarders race down the mountain as fast as they can.
Throughout the two day event, boarders race down the hill in qualifying races to start with the best advancing to the finals for the chance to win a cash prize.
The Knox Mountain downhill is taking place in today!
