Blading Cup USA returns to Downtown Santa Ana on November 6–7 for World Skate Challenger aggressive-inline street competition and community programming at Yost Parking Lot, 307 Spurgeon Street. Friday competition begins at 9:00 AM with Open/Amateur and Veteran rounds, followed by a 5:00 PM THEM Skates pre-party and the annual 8:00 PM Film Festival in 4th Street Market's beer garden at 201 East 4th Street. The organizer is accepting 3–5 minute film edits at Get@Themgoods.com; no submission deadline, selection process, screening order, admission policy or festival end time is published. Saturday starts at 9:00 AM with Junior and Pro rounds, runs through the 4:00–4:50 PM Pro Men final, and reconvenes for an 8:00 PM awards ceremony. Most divisions use two 45-second runs plus three best-trick attempts in finals; Men Open/Amateur uses a best-trick final and Veterans use a jam-session format. A Thursday 5:00 PM athlete meeting is listed, but its location is not published. Registration remains labeled open through October 30 in all seven divisions from $30 to $70 while inventory lasts. At verification, the live form showed 30 Junior Men, 20 Junior Women, 16 Veteran, 49 Amateur Men, 15 Amateur Women, 20 Pro Men, and 11 Pro Women entries remaining. Pro Men had reopened after previously showing sold out; this is treated as current organizer inventory, not a guarantee of capacity. The live official roster now reports 130 competitors from 20 countries, while its body contains 131 named lines; the one-entry first-party discrepancy is retained explicitly rather than silently dropping a name. World Skate ranking paperwork is optional for participation but required for official results/ranking inclusion in sanctioned divisions. The organizer's $118 partner-hotel link still preloads October 29–November 1 rather than event weekend, so travelers must correct the stay dates and verify the rate before purchase.

All listed divisions remain open to competitors while inventory lasts. For athletes in a World Skate-sanctioned division, official World Skate results and ranking inclusion additionally require a completed Infinity profile before the unpublished deadline, a valid passport issued by the represented country (national ID cards are not accepted), and a WADA ADEL anti-doping certificate issued in 2024, 2025, or 2026. The organizer explicitly says athletes who do not complete those ranking requirements may still compete but will be omitted from official World Skate results and rankings.

Upcoming event; no results yet. On October 30 the official live roster header reported 130 competitors from 20 countries, while the body contained 131 named lines: 37 Pro Men, 11 Pro Women, 34 Veterans, 4 Junior Women, 6 Junior Men, 34 Open Men, and 5 Open Women. The organizer’s earlier same-day post reported 115 skaters from 18 countries. These are registration snapshots, not a heat draw, official start list, result, or ranking; the one-entry roster-header discrepancy is preserved explicitly.
