Go Skateboarding Day (which we all know is everyday, so don’t get your panties in a wad.) had some big events going on all around the world yesterday. We partnered up with NikeSB to cover their events in NYC and LA. This LA portion started off with a surprise skate session on an LA movie lot with the Nike team consisting of Nyjah Huston, Paul Rodriguez, Eric Koston, Shane O’Neill, Sean Malto, Guy Mariano and five NikeSB app winners. Three spots were built that were incorporated into the fake cityscape that was a few square blocks wide. The guys got to be treated like stars with catered food and movie star trailers for chilling out in. But after a few hours in the hot LA sun, the party moved over to the Santa Monica Courthouse for a demo and skate session with the public. With a fresh coat of paint on the ledges and two new flat bars installed, the scene was hectic and fun all in one. Thanks for everyone coming out. Thanks to NikeSb for having us along and make sure to keep the Courthouse clean so we can keep skating there. Now go skateboard again today! —Jaime Owens

Once again NikeSB threw a massive celebration for Go Skateboarding Day in the Big Apple. The day started at the LES park with literally thousands of kids. Steve Rodriguez MC’d and kicked off the long ollie contest (always good for some comical slams) and a best trick contest over the pyramid. After that, the mob pushed through the LES, over the Williamsburg Bridge to the newly redesigned McCarren Skatepark. The adjacent street was blocked off with skateable obstacles and everyone got a gourmet lunch! It felt like a block party, complete with a DJ, and the SB pros put on a little demo before the park was opened to the public. Stop by the new park in Williamsburg for a roll, it’s super fun. Go Skateboard Everyday! —Blair Alley
