Come out to Highland Mountain Bike Park on Saturday July 18th for the Claymore Challenge, America's Premiere Slopestyle event.

The Highland Claymore is a legendary sword that was used to fight many battles in the hills of Killiecrankie Scotland. Almost 200 years later in Northfield New Hampshire another battle will be fought, this time for possession of the Claymore.


The trail crew at Highland Mountain Bike Park has been working around the clock adding to the already legendary slopestyle course that will Host the Claymore Challenge this weekend. With the addition of more berms, jumps and a HUGE cannon drop, this year's Claymore will prove to another unbelievable event. Come see the best riders in the world like Cam McCaul and Aaron Chase battle against local stars like Clint McMahon and Rocco Quintilliani for possession of the Highland Claymore.

Check out some footage of last years Claymore Challenge as well as some footage of the new stunts built for this years battle

 It was indeed free and it kicked ass, this was my first time watching the Claymore and it was a blast (to bad I had to go home before the party's and music really began, work sucks)! As corny as it sounds it was pretty awesome watching these guys (the guys you see in all the movies) riding on your home mountain and killing it! It also makes one realize how much they suck at riding, lol! Hopefully Highland or Pinkbike will get video posted ASAP!
