Stake and Street League Skateboarding Set to Reimagine Street Skate With Global Partnership

The worlds of street culture and cutting-edge entertainment collide as Street League Skateboarding (SLS) and online gaming powerhouse Stake announce a global partnership.

This partnership, which kicked off with Stake center stage as the Presenting Rights Partner of SLS Miami and the first SLS Takeover in Santa Monica in May, will run throughout the SLS Championship Tour season, culminating with the Super Crown in São Paulo in December.

The wide-ranging partnership will see Stake prominently featured across the live events with branding on key skate course features and broadcast segments at the biggest skateboarding events worldwide. 

Additionally, fans can expect to see the Stake brand integrated into the unique SLS social content, including the “What’s at Stake” event preview, and the all-new Game of S.T.A.K.E. – a creative twist on the classic Game of Skate, which will feature a head-to-head battle between SLS pros.

To round out the partnership, Stake will also be the presenting rights partner of the annual Trick of the Year contest, which allows skaters worldwide to submit their tricks for the illustrious prize. The Trick of the Year award winners will be announced in December.

“We’re excited to welcome an exciting brand like Stake to the SLS family”, said Frank Lamicella, CEO of Thrill Sports and parent company of SLS. “This partnership will deliver innovative activation elements and experiences to both our brands and fans as we travel the world for the 2025 SLS Championship Tour.”

“Skateboarding is more than sport – it’s fashion, music, culture, and raw energy. That’s exactly the space Stake loves to play in, and SLS is the perfect partner to bring that to life,” said Akhil Sarin, Chief Marketing Officer at Stake. “This alignment makes it an excellent partnership for our brand.”
