On August 1–2, 2026, LVLUP USA in Vista, California, will host two separate competitions designed for different stages of a skateboarder’s development.
AM AGE takes place on August 1 and is focused on youth, beginner, and intermediate competitors.
AMAGEDDON follows on August 2 as an open Pro/Am event for skateboarders looking to compete at a higher level and earn access to larger amateur opportunities.
Together, the two events create a progression-focused weekend that gives younger riders a place to build experience while also providing advanced amateurs with meaningful competitive pathways.

Two Events, One Progression Pathway
AM AGE and AMAGEDDON serve different groups of skateboarders, but they share a common purpose: creating clear opportunities to compete and progress.
AM AGE gives younger and developing riders a structured introduction to competition. AMAGEDDON gives advanced amateurs and professionals a chance to test themselves against stronger fields and pursue larger competitive opportunities.
By placing both events on the same weekend, LVLUP USA is creating a visible progression model—from age-group competition to open Pro/Am competition.
