Freeway closure during the Victoria WCS July 16-17, 2011
For those of you that will be traveling south on the 405 Freeway that live north of Los Angeles or in Los Angeles for the Victoria Skimboards World Championship of Skimboarding, please note the following:
“Public safety and transportation officials warn the public to avoid the 405 Freeway between Interstate 10 and the Highway 101 over the weekend of July 16-17 during its 53-hour closure. A 10-mile stretch of the freeway will be closed to demolish half of the Mulholland Bridge in the Sepulveda Pass in order to build a new, wider bridge and a car pool lane on the freeway.”
If this could affect your ability to get to the contest and be at your heat on time, please make preparations as we cannot hold heats open on account of highway work. Thank you for the understanding.

Answers to the first set of “Get To Know” questions – Morgan Just
The “Get To Know” series is a way for you to ask your questions of the Victoria Skimboards team riders and have them answered. Well, we cannot ask our guys/girls to answer all of the questions that you aksed as that would take about three months (tons of questions), but we got Morgan Just to belly up to a plate full and give you some honest answers.
