At the turn of the century a group of intrepid street lugers followed destiny to a road leading to nowhere. Previously hidden to the world of gravity sports: Maryhill Loops Road was discovered. Built literally as an example of an epic roadway by Sam Hill in pursuit of a federal contract over a century ago, this now asphalted and privately owned, gated road remains unscathed by motor traffic. For Isaac Newton’s most extreme acolytes, this is paved nirvana. Amidst the rolling, golden hills of Eastern Washington, the pioneering lugers found themselves overlooking the Columbia River Gorge unaware of how this discovery would attract the world. Gravity sports found its Mecca. It became the trial ground for any downhill racing enthusiast. The pilgrimage to Maryhill is a rite of passage for young men and women seeking to find themselves on the black curves of fate. It has remained an epicenter of greatness due to consistent upsets and battles for the podium. Maintaining the tradition of discovering the world’s one true downhill champion, 2017 will be no exception. Racers will be tested as dreams become reality at their competition’s expense. People from all over the world of all ages and disciplines will fight for the podium that rises above the rest: Maryhill.

Street Lounge Productions is proud to introduce the first annual Maryhill Windwalk: a Music and Gravity Sports Festival happening throughout Labor Day weekend (September 1-3, 2017).
