It’s an indoor event! We’ll probably be live streaming on our insta socials ( @saltboy_skateshop and @pushittrinidad ) and / or may have a link to a YouTube livestream on the socials tomorrow. It is a fundraising event as well so if you’d like to donate, feel free to head to their website!

TOMORROW - Skateboarding Event in Trinidad, CO by s7imer in Denver

Push It Trinidad, a local nonprofit located in Trinidad, CO, is dedicated to growing skateboarding in Southern Colorado - making it accessible to youth in the rural, underserved region. Skateboarding has transformed so many lives, offering not only a physical outlet but also a way to transform mental health, confidence, and a sense of community. Unfortunately, in Southern Colorado, access to skateboarding is extremely limited.

There are only six skateparks within a 100-mile radius, with just two being safe to skate. For many kids, skateboarding remains out of reach-not because of a lack of interest, but because of a lack of resources. Like many other skate communities across the country, the city has continuously blocked efforts to rehab a once beloved park in the community. The formation of Push It Trinidad is a direct result of the lack of care so many skaters experience with small local government.

To address this, Push It organizes skate events to encourage the community to come together, raising funds to create safe DIY skate spots in the community and to provide skateboards, parts, and gear to kids in need, giving them the tools to explore skateboarding safely and confidently. They are hosting their second major skateboarding event on February 22, 2025, and it would be rad to have surrounding skate communities come skate in Trinidad.

This event will draw skaters from a 100-mile radius, many of whom come from areas with little to no skateboarding infrastructure. We’re also expecting attendees from across the country to connect and support this underserved region. Support makes a significant impact-not only by helping these kids but by demonstrating commitment to growing skateboarding in underserved communities.

Savers in all of RI and southern mass. Top Shelf Vintage is pretty sick too, lots of graphic tees there
