With arguably one of the longest, coldest winters in recent history the East Coast and specifically New York City have had just about all they can take. Come celebrate the tail end of winter with a long day of skateboarding and fun in Brooklyn this Saturday.

First up, the folks at Vans, Volcom, 5 Boro & Maloof will be opening their wallets and parting with $2,000 for the best trick on the new street obstacles at the the House Of Vans. There will be free pizza and drinks but you must have a ticket to enter. You can pick up a free ticket at the Volcom Store. All the fun kicks off at 4 pm.

Once you’re done counting your winnings you can head over to KCDC where the shop and Etnies have teamed up to create possibly one of the coolest events ever. There will be carnival games including: A Dunk Tank, Shooting Games, High Striker and more. Plus, performances from special guests from the Coney Island: Sideshow “The Great Fredini”, “Insectavora” , and “Serpentina”. This event is 21 & up. Make sure to bring a valid form of I.D.
