The rules / The oldest game in skateboarding
Land it.
Or take a letter.
- 01
Send the challenge.
Send a friend a link and set a trick. You don’t need to be at the same spot, or even skating on the same day.
- 02
One official take.
Film it in the app. One take, no retakes, nothing from your camera roll. That’s the clip your friend has to match.
- 03
Match it or take a letter.
They get days to land it. Miss, and they take a letter. Spell S.K.A.T.E. and you’re out. Then run it back.
