Gearing up for its official launch, Session invited Samarria Brevard, Dane Burman, Many Santiago and more out to Substance Skatepark in Brooklyn for a proper skate party.

Gamers and skaters assemble at Substance's street side for a VIP session on two counts

A rare sight inside a park

"This guy runs the place!" Substance owner Andrew checks the scene with his squad

The simulation commences with Samarria testing out her on-screen abilities

Solid heelflip on the way to the Pier

Manny plays all

Just beyond the computers, Jiro warms up the ramps with a backside noseblunt 

Samarria catches a crook on the makeshift bump to ledge

Andrew Singh from 5Boro came in hot with a frontside NBS

What would a skateboarding and video game event be without Garrett Ginner in the mix? Front blunt

Manny played, then he slayed—kickflip crooks

Game producer Jeff even caught some on the course with a manual

Dane threw on his new bandana and closed it out with a head-high frontside wallride

They've signed shirts and boards all over the world, tonight they all get a personal NBD of signing gaming merch

At the end of the evening, Jiro went back for another round

Seems like as good as an endorsement could be

And of course, Donovan Strain was there to make sure everything ran smooth with the setup. From the streets to the screens, he's seen it all. Check the newest Session trailer and cop your copy for the next time you gotta put your ankle up
