As part of our role as the national governing body for mountainboarding in the UK, the ATBA-UK organises the annual UK Mountainboard Championships as part of the annual ‘Switchback’ event.
The UK Mountainboard Championships are open to all riders to attend and compete in, from first time competitors to seasoned Pros, locals to internationals, all are welcome! We at the ATBA-UK pride ourselves on making our competitions as inclusive as possible.
Mountainboard competitions are generally a very social affair and usually take place over the course of a weekend, where riders compete in one or multiple disciplines. You can check out the main disciplines for mountainboard competitions at the bottom of the page, and check out the video below for a great insight to our 2024 mountainboard event.

BoarderX, or Boardercross/BX, is four-rider racing on specially built tracks in a knockout format.
It’s fast-paced and exciting to watch.
Freestyle is all about jumps, tricks, and style.
The riders get airborne to show off their skills and perform huge freestyle tricks like flips, spins and sometimes even one-footers!
Downhill is a battle against the clock on physically and technically demanding tracks.
Riders compete to get the fastest time down the course, emphasizing speed and control.
