Hotshot Riders CGA District 19.

We are so proud of our hotshot riders that ventured to the state finals this past week in Hollister, CA! We can’t wait until next year, and hope that we have an even bigger group! Jennifer Rodriguez took 3rd overall FC, Angela Rei took 5th overall FC, Monica, J***y and Angela won several buckles. Our Hotshot riders qualified for several match races and Johnny Acosta was the birangle match race champion! If you’ve never been, mark your calendars because it will surely become one of your favorite weeks of the year! Cheers to our next season!

Also be sure to mark your calendar for our first 2026-2027 season show September 26th and 27th.

The end of our 2025-2026 season has came to a close, as we have an exciting number of riders heading to compete at state show in 1 week! Competition starts on the 19th and runs through the 25th! District 19 is responsible for running 1 event at state show which this year is quadrangle on the 25th. If you’re at all interested in competing at state we 100% recommend driving up to watch for a day or 2. Please message us with any questions.

Your board is hard at work planning or next season! Unfortunately board and facility availability has made it too hard to have a show in August, but not to fear as we will be making it up with a 2 day show in September! Please mark your calendars for September 25-26th! More information will be on its way out soon!

Our first ever 2 day buckle show this past weekend was one for the books! We couldn’t have done it without so much support from our riders and their family and friends! We had 8 arena records broken, 1 plus time ran with a 9.3 on single stake, and gave away tons of prizes! We ran all 13 events plus 8 setups for those that needed them. We had 28 riders, and some absolutely beautiful weather for June!
