The Action Park Alliance skatepark of Grand Prairie, Texas is taking skateboarding to the public in the first (to be annual) D-Town Throwdown contest. Dallas' American Airlines Center will open its gates to some of the most talented skaters in Texas for the public to see on Friday, November 6. The competition is FREE to enter and with skate vendors and jumpers for the kids, and the whole family will want to go! The contest is the featured pre-game entertainment for the Dallas Stars vs. Vancouver Canucks hockey game.

 
The show starts at 6 p.m. and the skaters won’t be the only ones grabbing prizes at the competition. Audience members will also have a chance to win thousands of dollars of cool prizes, including KICKER gear! Among the riders, KICKER athlete Ke’Chaud Johnson will be throwing his best tricks at a chance to win cash and other great prizes!
