Welcome back to The Weekly Grind, skaterinos!
Let’s roll!
What’s going on?
It’s Week 2 of the Open Access Nike SB Pop-Up event on Isle of Grom at night! For more details on the event, check the blog. (Make sure to complete all the Nike SB tasks to claim your free black Nike SB socks, Nike SB sticker, and Nike SB Dunk Highs.) And the store will be rotating on April 28. What’s coming to the Extravert store? Nike SB Black Sports Bra, Nike SB Navy Jersey Tank, Nike SB Blue Tee, Nike SB Black Spider Tee, Nike SB Beanie, and Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid.
We’re stoked to see all the content you’ve been sharing - and don’t forget we have that Nike SB Pop-Up UGC contest where you can win a pair of Nike SBs!
We updated the Parklife Challenge to reduce the required grind length in response to community feedback.
Don’t forget: Keep sharing your bug/issues so we can squash ‘em flat.
Let’s dive right into the calendar.

More content from the skate. community!
As usual, we wanted to share a few pieces of content that caught our eye. Remember: if you want to possibly be featured in The Weekly Grind, make sure to share yours (screenshots, videos, clips) via skate.reel.
We’ll share some community pics/vids next week, but wanted to get the first two volumes of the CCTV (Community Compilation TV series) videos out.
CCTV Vol 1
CCTV Vol 2
Part of The Weekly Grind will be dedicated to sharing current Known Issues the team is tracking for bugs & issues, any active deployments/fixes, and next steps.
Developer’s Note: We’re seeing a small volume of crashes on PC related to 13th and 14th Gen Intel Processors.
This is a thermal hardware issue with Intel processors that Intel patched back in 2024. If you were affected and didn’t download the patch in time, your CPU may be permanently damaged. This issue can cause crashes with high-load applications, like video games. You can read more about the issue here and download a diagnostic tool here to see if your PC has this issue.
Known Issues Still Being Investigated:
- Speedline challenges can end prematurely while in a sequence due to final bearing placement
- The notification denoting when a friend comes online can randomly trigger multiple times.
- After purchasing multiple SVB packs in succession, an error appears during checkout.
- The game sometimes crashes when a fourth player joins your Party.
- Adjusting your video settings on PC can cause other settings to change.
- After accepting a skate. party invite via Xbox Live or PlayStation Network, the invite reappears after the player is already in the party they were invited to.
- Spin degrees in the trick feed are sometimes inaccurate.
- Graphical glitches are present in the UI on PCs using AMD GPUs.
- Go to AMD's driver site and find your graphics card from the "Search or Browse Drivers" section.
- Click on "Previous Versions" and download the one labeled "Adrenalin 25.12.1."
- Download and Run the AMD Cleanup Utility.
- Reboot, and then run the Adrenalin 25.12.1 installer.
- Reboot again and launch the game.
- Workaround - AMD:
- Character texture flickers when the Pipe Dream challenge starts.
- Neighborhood Progress appears reset and previously opened product boxes appear locked.
- Workaround: Press Windows + R on your keyboard > Type: %localappdata% > Press Enter > Find the skate folder %localappdata%\skate\ > Delete or rename the folder. (Rename the folder if you have saved replays or screenshots).
- Activity count on Isle of Grom zone entrance menu shows incorrect total amount of completed challenges.
- Player cannot grind on the rails of the Stadium parking entrance.
- Flags on Isle of Grom have collision making it hard to skate.
- Coffin Air 540 in the Waterworks OTL Challenge often fails to register the goal as completed.
- Players often don't receive notifications for completing and progressing tasks.
