The series is powered by the National High School Skateboard Association, but isn’t completely centered around High School This year, series will have 40 teams competing, with each made up of 4-5 of the best skaters between the ages of 14-18 years old. There will be two regions with 20 schools in each region. After three competitions in each region, the top 10 teams from each region will advance to the finals.
