Go Skateboard Day & Emerica’s Wild Ride Invade NYC

Each year on June 21st, National Go Skateboard Day seems to get bigger and bigger. This year, close to 4,000 kids descended on the city, starting at the Brooklyn Banks, traveling to Tompkins Square Park, and then making their way to KCDC in Brooklyn for the finale, which included a concert by the band Children, the Emerica pro team fresh off from the Wild Ride motorcycle tour, and enough free stuff to keep even the craziest of the monkeys satisfied.
