Point X was a skateboarding camp near Aguanga, California. It housed the first example of the modern "MegaRamp" style mega ramp, used to set height and distance records by Danny Way.[1][2][3] The camp primarily featured a skate park and terrain but also included other outdoor activities.[4] Skaters known to have skated at Point X include Way, Bob Burnquist, Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins, Tony Magnusson, Buster Halterman, and Owen Nieder.[5]
The camp was used as a filming location for the film Dishdogz.[6]
