We travelled down here with a lad called Dave Davenport who used to work at S&M and a gang of his mates.
Cheers Dave!

It is similar to Woodward and is a fecking amazing place to ride!
The website doesn't exist any more which makes me think it might have closed.
Doesn't surprise me really if it has. It was in the middle of the desert

This place was down in that direction too just off the freeway though which made it a lot more accessible.
I think this might have closed down now too though. Its in Encinitas and there's a skatepark right next door that didn't allow bikes

Chris Moeller drove us down there in the S&M van. A great day riding with him and Neal Wood...

Excuse the video quality. Filmed on a phone camera....

Best holiday I've ever had. 36 years old at the time in California with my BMX and my riding mates.
Well recommended.....you're never too old

Its one of the things that pisses me off with this country.
We also drove out to Vegas on this trip and the place is FULL of amazing concrete skateparks.
Here we might get a shit metal mini ramp in the roughest areas possible.

If you have Google Earth -

Take the points from the bottom of the pic to find the place and you'll see what I mean about being in the middle of nowhere!
Its much further north from San Diego than I first thought

That pretty much summed it up.
There was just 7 of us riding there all day.

I hope it is still there.

Now you say it, wasn't there some SE ads with Ben Wallace at Point X?
Did I also see him on a MTB at Burnley skatepark a couple of months ago?

If Point X has closed down its a pity.
