It was one of four skate parks being created or revamped as part of a city initiative, and the only one that proposed building an entirely new space rather than replacing an existing skate park or asphalt rink. Intended as the city's flagship, it was also by far the largest, in the city and regionally, tied with the Lynch Family Skatepark in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which is the largest skate park on the East Coast.
These shifts mean making changes to our team structure, and some roles will be impacted. The teammates affected are talented colleagues and friends who helped build the foundation of skate. Their creativity and dedication are deeply ingrained in what players experience today. This decision is not a reflection of their impact and we're committed to supporting them through this transition.

Thousands of cheering fans surround the ice at the Honda Center. The arena is loud, packed with fans in Anaheim Ducks jerseys. As the puck drops and the action starts, players zoom back and forth until - boom! A shot, and the Ducks score. But when the music hits for the first goal of the game, it's not the typical "We Will Rock You" by Queen. It's "Come Out and Play" by local heroes, and one of Orange County's most influential punk bands, the Offspring.
Sports are entering a new era and it could be powered by artificial intelligence. Jeremy Bloom, CEO of the X Games, is placing a bold bet on AI to revolutionize how competitions are judged and scored. From reducing human error to enhancing fairness and accuracy, AI judges could redefine the future of professional sports. But can machines truly replace human judgment on the world's biggest stages?
Fisher marked the first time Moscone Center hosted something enormous like this; I went on the second night of a two-night takeover, December 20. Operationally, it ran surprisingly smoothly for a first-time venue. Crowd-wise: a lot of phones, a lot of jerseys, a lot of people filming drops they will absolutely never watch again. It felt like a first "rave" moment for a lot of folks since it was an 18+ event.
Streetdog BMX isn't trying to revive the glory days of BMX games, nor is it chasing mass appeal. It's a deliberately fiddly, skill-focused take on BMX riding, aimed squarely at players who enjoy mastery more than spectacle. And like real-life riding, that first crash is the key moment - because you're either going to toss the fucking thing in the trash, or grind like a madman and try again.
By all accounts, things didn't run as smoothly for Mikko Rehnberg and Arttu Heikkinen filming their newest street movie Another Brick On The Wall compared to last years epic Shift. But injuries, lack of snow, travelling and spot battles haven't stopped them pulling another banger out of the bag. Featuring: Mikko Rehnberg, Karoliina Rehnberg & Rasmus Rönkä this one shakes off the festive cobwebs and kicks 2026 into gear perfectly.
Olympic gold medalist Picabo Street was spotted on the slopes in Italy this week giving Snoop Dogg a skiing lesson, and the results are as delightful as you'd hope. Street, one of the most celebrated American alpine racers in history-a World Cup champion and 1998 Olympic downhill gold medalist-has been sharing her expertise with friends and fans while attending the Milano-Cortina Games.
In some ways, Shaun White's next trip to the Winter Olympics might be the toughest. Retired for four years and now trying to shape his sport from outside of the halfpipe he once commanded, White says he fully expects his upcoming trip to Italy the country where he won the first of his three gold medals to be an emotional ride, maybe with some unexpected turns.
Going full throttle off Mainline and making it look this effortless is truly something to behold: "This one is a lot scarier sitting in the sitski getting ready to drop than looking over the edge scoping it beforehand. Such a low POV on that thing, I felt like I was gonna launch into space!" -Jay Rawe Jay rode away clean and was a cool customer as he reached his friends who were filming from below.
