What’s up, Raleigh skaters! The energy in our city is absolutely electric right now, and it’s the perfect vibe to carry us into July. The recent Skate Moore Square pop-up was a massive success, proving once again that Raleigh has an incredible, supportive community on wheels. It’s so inspiring to see the city get behind skating!
That same spirit of exploration is alive and well within our Let’s Roll community. While the official events are awesome, you all are busy finding and sharing your own hidden gems. This month’s big discovery is a versatile new spot on NC State’s campus, perfect for your next session. Whether you’re looking for a smooth rink session at a classic spot like United Skates of America or carving out your own path, Raleigh is the place to be. Let’s keep this momentum rolling through July!
Community Discovery: Your New Favorite Spot?
Big shout-out to the skater who added the Centennial Campus Parking Deck @NC State to our map! This is what the Let’s Roll app is all about. Parking decks offer that perfect smooth concrete for practicing everything from dance moves to drills, and they’re a lifesaver on rainy or windy days. Have you checked it out yet? Roll through and add your own review or photos!

“Hardly anyone ever parks on the upper 2 levels, so it’s great for doing laps, practicing street style, trying parking structure ramps, watching the sunset, and just chillin with the crew.”
Log Your Rolls: Recent Skate Sessions
Every skate is a story! While no new public sessions were logged in the app this month, we encourage you to start. Logging your skate sessions is a great way to track your progress, see when and where the community is most active, and connect with skaters who were at the same spot.
