Hey Leeds skaters! As we roll into October, the city’s skate scene is absolutely buzzing with opportunities to connect, learn, and level up your skills. While our own Let’s Roll app has been a little quiet on new spot discoveries this month (let’s get mapping!), the wider community is serving up some incredible events for every skill level.
The big news comes from The Skate Sanctuary's September Programme, which is setting a fantastic tone for the autumn season. Whether you’re looking to solidify your skills in their Level 2: Roller Skate Fundamentals class or push your limits with backward skating and transitions at the Roller Skate Super Session, there’s a structured session for you. And for those just looking for good vibes and great music, the weekly all-ages Sunday Skate at the Forum Leisure Centre is the perfect place to find your rhythm.
Log Your Recent Skate Sessions
Every skate counts! Logging your sessions helps us see where and when Leeds is rolling. Whether it was a quick lunch break skate or an epic weekend trail, get it logged and let’s see how many miles our community can rack up this month.
