What’s up, London skaters! As we glide into April, the energy on the streets is absolutely electric. March was a massive month for organised events, proving that London’s skate scene is buzzing with life. We saw skaters of all levels pushing their skills, from technical workshops like the Sk8Hub x Big Jem Workshop to the epic Grand Skate Tour that took over the city. And for those looking for a relaxed roll, the marshalled Snail Stroll offered a perfect, welcoming vibe for beginners, while Roller Nation kept the classic rink nights alive with their Sunday Late Skate and Roller Disco Saturday.
While the city was bustling, our Let’s Roll app was a little quiet on the discovery front. This is our call to action for April! We want to see the scene through YOUR eyes. Where are the hidden gems you’ve been sessioning? What grassroots meetups are you planning? Let’s fill the map with our community’s knowledge and make April the month we put our own discoveries in the spotlight. Get exploring, get logging, and let’s show everyone what the real London skate scene is all about!
