<p>We're super excited to finally announce the release of our <strong><a href="/sites/default/files/inline-files/Goodpush_SkateGames_Booklet__web.pdf" target="_blank">Goodpush Skate Games Booklet</a></strong>! The idea to make this came from recently collecting a big list of fun and creative skateboarding-based games at the Skateistan Skate Schools, and realizing that there was nothing online about games you can&nbsp;play during skateboarding lessons.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Skate Games Booklet features<strong> </strong>20 game ideas that all involve skateboarding somehow. It's free to download and we've shared instructions below on how to print your own booklet on any regular printer!</p>

<p>Playing games on skateboards not only make lessons more fun, they also&nbsp;help new skaters learn to control their board, balance, and keep an eye out for others around them within the skatepark. Other benefits of playing skate games include:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Learning and practicing new skate skills without consciously thinking about it</li>
	<li>Games help participants to build other (non-skate) skills like cooperation, teamwork and creativity</li>
	<li>Games can make even a flat piece of concrete more interesting and challenging to skate</li>
	<li>Many games can be played by almost any level of skateboarder, which encourages skaters of different levels to work together</li>
	<li>Games are energizing and easily fill 10-15 minutes of a skate lesson</li>
</ul>
