University of Skate: Academic Forum and Workshops

The University of Skate is an opportunity for scholars to present and receive feedback on their most recent work, as well as to establish collaborations with their peers. We invite all Pushing Boarders panelists and the most zealous of skaters to attend the forum and support the next generation of brain-picking skate nerds.
