Esports And Skateboarding Collaborate In Next SKATER XL Competition

Aiming to continue to revolutionize skateboarding, Easy Day Studios is about to host a special esports event that will be held in collaboration with the real-world Tampa Pro skateboarding competition! With the debut of the first-ever Skater XL Tampa Pro Esports Contest and following their commitment to expression and innovation, this will be the first time an esports competition will take place alongside a traditional skateboarding competition. Plus, it helps that the Tampa Pro skateboarding competition is the world’s most respected and longest-running skateboarding contest.

The Skater XL Tampa Pro Esports Contest will be live-streamed on the official Skater XL Twitch Channel on May 7th. All entries for consideration are due by midnight PST on Tuesday, April 19th. This will be the second esports event Skater XL has held in 2022 alone, with the last one featuring the Oshawa Arena.

They will also be releasing the new version of Skatepark of Tampa to be used for the contest on April 25th. The park will include new elements featured in the updated pro course at the 28th Annual Tampa Pro competition including course artwork by famous skate artist Lucas Beaufort.

Skater XL is available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It was released to a positive reception and since has been providing new content and events for both players and fans to enjoy. Check out the official flyer for the event too.
