What’s up, London crew! The city is absolutely buzzing as we head into June, and the energy is infectious. This past month, our Let’s Roll community has been on fire, uncovering a treasure trove of new spots. We’re seeing a huge trend in skaters finding gold in the most unexpected places, with a flurry of smooth car parks like illy car park and WG mall carpark being added to the map. It just proves that London skaters know how to make any space their own!
This DIY spirit is what makes London’s scene so legendary. It’s a vibe perfectly captured in a recent project celebrating our city’s global influence, 'It's a London Ting': The Influence of Stratford Centre Skaters on the Global Roller Skating Scene, a must-see for anyone who loves our culture. That energy continues every week with iconic street skates like the London Friday Night Skate (LFNS) and the more relaxed Sunday Stroll, keeping the community spirit rolling strong through the heart of the city. Let’s get into what you discovered and where you can roll this June!
June's Hottest Spots: From Gritty Car Parks to Smooth Courts
You’ve been busy! This month’s discoveries show off the incredible diversity of London’s skateable surfaces. We’ve seen a brilliant takeover of undercover spaces, with skaters adding gems like the ‘illy car park’ and the ‘WG mall carpark’. At the same time, you’re finding amazing outdoor spots like the ‘Marlborough Sports Garden’ and ‘Norwood Park Football Pitch’ for those sunny day sessions. It’s awesome to see both brand new finds and classic venues like ‘Roller Nation’ lighting up the app!
