The Isle of Grom is going dark for the Nike SB Pop-Up event. Starting today, Skate. players can access the island at night to tackle new challenges and unlock exclusive Nike SB gear. This limited-time takeover runs until May 5, giving you three weeks to master the nighttime lines and fill your digital closet.
Beyond the branded event, Full Circle is handing out some freebies to everyone just for logging in. All players have been gifted a pair of plain black socks, but the real prize is at the Extravert Store. You can currently claim four community-designed T-shirts for free, though you'll want to act before June 2 to secure them. It’s a nice nod to the community creators who have been shaping the game’s aesthetic during this development phase.
On the technical side, this update addresses some of the most frustrating physics bugs currently affecting the meta. The notorious "double grind" glitch, which often broke flow during technical lines, has been patched. Additionally, the team has implemented fixes for contact force wipeouts—those annoying moments where the game’s physics engine would eject you off your board for seemingly minor collisions. These changes should significantly raise the skill ceiling by making the board feel more predictable during high-stakes maneuvers.
For the PC crowd, there are a few extra notes. The devs are currently investigating graphical glitches specific to AMD GPUs and have issued a reminder for players on 13th and 14th Gen Intel CPUs to check their stability settings if they encounter rare crashes. While these hardware-specific issues are still being ironed out, the core gameplay experience is feeling much tighter with today's mechanical fixes.
