Go Skateboarding Day
Go Skateboarding Day (GSD), observed on the 21st of June, is an event created by Don Brown, formerly IASC Marketing Director and co-created with Per Welinder who wanted a day for the global skate community to all ride together and elevate the energy of skateboarding around the world. International Association of Skateboard Companies (IASC).
Go Skateboarding Day was created in 2003 by the International Association of Skateboard Companies (IASC) to help make skateboarding more accessible through events held in major cities around the world.
The first events happened in 2004 where the skate industry got their local communities together to skate BBQ and have fun. Etnies, éS, Emerica, Vans, Birdhouse, and many others all gathered at the etnies skate park in Lake Forest, CA. Tony Hawk, Ryan Sheckler, Heath Kirchart are a few of the top pros that turned up that day to skate together.
In 2004 Emerica footwear set the stage for the first ever “Wild in the Streets” event in Philadelphia, PA where thousands of skateboarders took to the streets.
Emerica continued each year to bring together the largest crowds. In Brazil there was an estimate of 25,000 skateboarders charging through the streets and this energy grew each year.
In 2006, more than 350 events took place in 32 countries.
The following year, the IASC received Special Congressional Recognition from US Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez for its work in promoting skateboarding and encouraging young people to get outside and practice the sport.
Hundreds of people skated in Albany, New York.
