San Diego September Skate Guide: From Derby Clashes to Gaslamp Grooves

Explore » United States » San Diego » Updates » San Diego September Skate Guide: From Derby Clashes to Gaslamp Grooves

What a month for skating in sunny San Diego! While the Let’s Roll app was a little quiet on new community discoveries, the city itself was absolutely electric with organized events. August saw the Gaslamp Quarter transform into a skater’s paradise every weekend with the Skate Sundays at Gaslamp Quarter, throwing it back with awesome themed nights. For those craving competition, sparks flew at the AWAY GAME: Fer Sures vs. San Diego Roller Derby bout, proving our derby scene is as fierce as ever.

Beyond the classics, we also saw a super unique event with the Roll & Rise: WISE San Diego Skate Night & Entrepreneurial Panel, mixing business with pleasure on eight wheels. It’s clear that San Diego’s passion for skating is huge! Now, as we roll into September, let’s get all your personal adventures from these events—and your own secret spots—logged in the app. Let’s show everyone what the local Let’s Roll crew is up to!

Who's Rolling in the 619?
