Super Patch, a wellness technology company, is launching the SUPER PATCH REVOLUTION SKATE SERIES, a two-city competition spanning Venice Beach and New York City designed to reinvigorate skate culture from its community roots. The event represents more than a traditional skateboarding contest, with $40,000 in total prize money, free entry, and public attendance emphasizing accessibility and inclusivity. Featuring professional skaters including Guy Mariano, Vincent Alvarez, and Leandre Sanders, the series aims to shift skateboarding's narrative away from corporate monopolies and back to its authentic street origins.
The competition is organized by skaters themselves with support from local nonprofits and community organizations, integrating community art walls, youth demonstrations, and wellness initiatives beyond competitive skateboarding. Super Patch has committed financial support to LA Parks & Recreation for improving local skate infrastructure and youth programs. An elite panel of respected skaters and curators will judge the events to ensure competitive integrity and cultural authenticity, with musical accompaniment provided by DJ LUIJAY adding dynamic energy.
Each location offers substantial cash prizes: $25,000 for first place, $10,000 for second, and $5,000 for third, underscoring the event's commitment to supporting skateboarding talent. The series is presented by Fabian Alomar, a former professional skater turned actor and community advocate, whose personal journey of redemption adds deeper meaning to the competition's ethos. Concurrent with the skateboarding competition, Super Patch will showcase its innovative BOOST Super Patch, a wearable technology providing 12+ hours of clean, chemical-free energy through neuroscience-backed vibrotactile technology.
The SUPER PATCH REVOLUTION SKATE SERIES represents a cultural movement positioning skateboarding as a platform for community expression, talent recognition, and social empowerment. By combining substantial financial investment with community-focused programming and technological innovation, the initiative challenges conventional sports marketing approaches. The emphasis on skater-led organization, local partnerships, and infrastructure support demonstrates a holistic approach to cultural revitalization that extends beyond competition results.
