Board Sports Party

Skateboarders, surfers, and scooter riders alike will catch some air at this party.   

Invitations

Cut paper into the shape of your child’s favorite board for the invitation and add:

Get ready to catch some air.  Join us for all the action.

Decorations

Play skateboard (Tony Hawk) or surfer (Endless Summer) movies on the T.V. as a backdrop.  Set out surfer and skateboard magazines (check the library for cheap back issues).  Lay around some goggles or sunglasses, helmets, and elbow/knee pads for authenticity.  Check party supply stores for blow up or cardboard cut-outs of surfboards and palm trees to add to the scene. 

Games and Activities

If you’re expecting experienced skateboarders at your party, you can set up an obstacle course outside or plan a trip to the local skate park (be sure to have all necessary equipment and get parental permission).  If you really want to thrill your guests, hire a company to set up a skatepark in your yard for the day.

Musical Towels 

Played like musical chairs only replace the chairs with beach towels. 

Boogie Board Boogie

If you are focusing on water boards, have boogie board or surfboard paddle races across the pool. 

Silly Board Sport Relay

Everyone enjoys participating in relay races, and being part of a team makes it even more fun.  Combine all your favorite board sports in this wacky relay game! First collect items that represent different board sports, for example, a skateboard, surfer shorts, goggles, elbow pads, knee pads, sun visor, etc.  Collect two of each item. Divide your guests into two teams. Give each team the same set of props, so the level of difficulty will be equal. Place a chair for each team a short distance away from the starting line. To begin the game, the first person on each team must put on the surfer shorts, goggles, pads (or whatever items you choose) and travel to the chair, keeping at least one foot on the skateboard. After reaching the chair, the player runs back to the team (carrying the board) and passes the props to the next player. The game continues until everyone has had a turn. The first team to finish, wins! 

Food

Your guest will flip over these Skateboard Sandwiches: Make sandwiches as you normally would. Cut each sandwich in half, remove the crusts, and round the edges to look like a skateboard. Next, mix 2 Tbs. milk with a few drops of food coloring. 
Use this edible “paint” to draw names or logos on the skateboards. Then stick an olive on the end of a carrot stick to make the wheels and axles. Finally, assemble your skateboards, placing a half sandwich on a pair of carrot sticks. Wash down these cool treats with Shark Punch (a combination of lemon-lime soda, blue sports drink, vanilla ice cream and Gummi sharks) served in clear plastic cups.

Favors

Fingerboards come in a variety of sizes and styles and make cool gifts.  Giveaways like board sports magazines and accessories such as safety gear or goggles are always popular with the dudes.
