Rad Xmas Skate - 14th December - Paetara Aspiring Central - 3pm-7pm

Rad Skate School

The transformational power of skating; the way it becomes part of you and you a part of it.

We’ve been skating, ripping half pipes and failing at kickflips for decades. We’ve traveled the globe hitting skate parks, meeting awesome humans and building networks. Through all of this has been our board. A simple deck of wood.

This tool has opened doors for us, taken us places we never expected and provided experiences that have shaped who we are and how we exist.

Skating created focus, taught resilience and developed practical skills. It showed us how to be a community, how to empower and support the underdog as much as the super-star. It showed us our limits and allowed us to see the strengths in others. How to keep getting up even when you fall – again and again. We wanted others to appreciate what we had learned and experienced.

These are our epic class and coaching offering!

Private Lessons

1-1 private lessons up to 1-5 private lessons. Our private lessons are the fastest way to get ahead. Dubbed ‘Progression Sessions’ for a reason! If you’re a little nervous of group vibes, or prefer the one on one attention of a coach, or just need help mastering one aspect of skating, then a progression session is for you. Or, grab a group of mates and have a private group class! Contact US
