tour with Ben Grove and Chris Oliver

Relentless Energy Drink are proud to announce the first ever Skate Super Series, running through the final weeks of November at four locations across Scotland and England. It’s Relentless’s way of showing its support for the UK’s skate scene, and helping to foster new talent alongside more established and upcoming names.

Two skate heroes team up

"Entry is 100% open to the skating public"

Relentless Energy Drink sponsored skaters Ben Grove and Chris Oliver will be on the road attending the four events between them – competing as well as judging. Entry is 100% open to the skating public and all entry fees for competitors are completely free if you make a donation to each of the parks, helping to support the local scenes. The aim is to draw as many people to the events as possible and invite everyone – of all abilities – to take part.

£7,000 prize purse

Each of the four events will have £1,500 in prize money up for grabs across categories including Best Pro/Sponsored skate, Amateur/ Unsponsored skate, jam and bowl contests – as long as there’s time to fit all the action in, that is.

Each park will be designated a talented filmer to produce an edit for each of the tour stops. The videos will then be uploaded onto the Relentless Energy website, social networks and MPORA channel, and the edit that receives the most views will win an additional £1,000 cash prize, to be split between the park and the filmer.
