This isn't just a visual shift; the takeover introduces a specific set of Nike SB challenges that actually reward your skill with permanent loot. Players can unlock the iconic Nike SB Dunk Highs for their character by completing objectives centered on high scores, grind distance, and landing clean 3-piece lines. It is a solid way to expand your wardrobe without dipping into your wallet, as the event is completely free and doesn't require a Premium Pass or Rip Chips.
For those looking to go all out with the branding, a wider selection of Nike SB footwear, tops, and accessories has also hit the in-game store. The night lighting on Grom's Barge park creates a totally different vibe for filming clips, offering a high-contrast aesthetic that makes technical tricks pop against the dark environment.
Timing is key for this one. While the Nike SB challenges and the ability to unlock the Dunk Highs will end on May 5, 2026, the dark lighting setup on Grom is sticking around a bit longer, scheduled to remain active until June 2. If you are looking to stack clips or just want to grab some free high-tier gear, head to the Barge before the pop-up packs up.
