Roxbury, New York's Plattekill Mountain is as classic a race venue as any, after all it is where Maxxis ESC series racing was born ten years ago. Although the bike park is not open full time anymore, there are a few select weekends throughout the summer where you can get rad and surf the famed Platty shale chutes. This weekend the Maxxis ESC crew have put together a diverse set of four stages to challenge Enduro racers and brought Da Bomb, an old favorite among Downhill racers, back to life. 232 racers were on hand to enjoy a sunny weekend of putting their bikes and bodies to the test. Missed this one? Not to worry, we'll be back here for another Box Components Showdown as well as Downhill Finals later this year.
