Action sports
SAND, SALT, SUN,
AND A SCHEDULE THAT MOVES.
Surf, skate, and BMX events across Southern California. Multi-day builds, multi-zone coverage, announcers who have to cut through wind and a crowd, and a run schedule that changes with conditions. We've been doing beach and park events out of Los Angeles and Orange County for years.

SYSTEMS BY SITE
Outdoor competition sites give you nothing to work with acoustically — wind carries sound off, there's no room gain, and the crowd is spread across hundreds of yards instead of packed into seats. Coverage has to be designed for the footprint, zone by zone.
Beach & shoreline
Salt air, blowing sand, and a load-in across soft ground. Gear gets protected and serviced for the environment, and everything is planned around tide, wind, and city sound limits.
Weather protection · Sand-capable load-in · SPL at the property line
Parks, ramps & courses
Hard concrete, bleachers on both sides, and athletes who need to hear their own run music. Distributed coverage that reaches the stands without washing out the announce position.
Distributed boxes · Course monitoring · Run music playback
Multi-zone event sites
Competition area, festival village, sponsor activations, VIP decks, and athlete areas — each needing its own feed, its own level, and the ability to be muted independently.
Zoned distribution · Independent level control · Site-wide planning
Announce & commentary
Commentary positions built for a live webcast and a live crowd at once. Clean feeds out, clean cue in, and announcers who can hear each other over the noise.
Commentary mix · Mix-minus feeds · Talkback & cue
WHAT SHIPS TO YOUR SITE
Quoted line by line, including the days you might not run.
The schedule is the hard part. Contest windows move, heats get called on an hour's notice, and a lay day can turn into a run day. Our crews stay on site and stay ready rather than breaking down and coming back.
Contest windows, holds, and lay days are part of the job in this sport. Here's the standard event site build, and we'll be straight with you about how standby days are billed before you pay anything.

Sharing the site with broadcast? We agree the feed list, the comms plan, and RF coordination in advance so your world feed and your PA aren't fighting each other for spectrum.
What the week actually looks like.
EVENT WEEK
01 / Site survey
Walk it first
Footprint, zones, power locations, cable runs, and sound limits reviewed on or off site with your production team before anything is quoted.
02 / Build
Ahead of the window
Systems in and cabled during the build days, so you're not troubleshooting audio the morning the contest window opens.
03 / Coordinate
Zones and spectrum
Each zone tuned and level-set, RF scanned and coordinated against broadcast and safety radios, and all feeds confirmed with your webcast partner.
04 / Run days
On site, on call
Techs stay with the system through the window, including holds and lay days. Heats get called on short notice and we're already up.
05 / Strike
Off the sand clean
Struck to the permit schedule, site left the way the city expects, as if we were never there.
THE PEOPLE
Action sports punishes gear and schedules in ways indoor work never does. The value is a crew that has already solved the wind, the RF congestion, the generator that browns out at noon, and the heat that gets called forty minutes early.
- Techs on site for the full window, not just build and strike
- RF coordination alongside broadcast, timing, and safety radios
- Experience with beach, park, and city permit conditions
- One point of contact from site survey through strike
