Helsinki’s Quiet April: Let’s Own the Streets in May!

Explore » Finland » Helsinki » Updates » Helsinki's Quiet April: Let's Own the Streets in May!

Hey Helsinki skaters! April was a quiet one on the Let’s Roll app, a real calm before the storm. We know you’ve been lacing up, and now, with May rolling in, it’s our time to shine! The city is a blank canvas, and we’re calling on you to paint it with fresh lines, new sessions, and amazing discoveries.

This is our chance to put Helsinki’s incredible roller skating scene on the map. Let’s make this next month the most active one yet. Where will your first roll of May take you? What hidden gems will you uncover? Let’s get out there, log our sessions, and show everyone what the Helsinki skate community is all about!

Log Your Rolls!

No public sessions were logged in Helsinki recently, but we know you’ve been out there! Logging your skate sessions is the best way to track your progress and inspire others. Let’s fill up the May calendar with our routes and adventures!
