Life Rolls On made history – again! – in 2010, creating the first skate clinic for people living with paralysis. Hosted annually at the world famous Venice Beach Skate Park in Venice, California, this event is nothing short of epic. In 2017, we introduced this quality of life event to Atlanta, Georgia, and in 2020, we were ready to roll to New York City.

They Will Skate Again attracts everyone from little shredders to serious pros. Participation is always FREE. Life Rolls On provides expert instruction, hundreds of volunteers, awesome food, DJ music and an awards ceremony.
