Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: July 2026
Transparency matters, so here is how this site makes money.
How We Earn From Links
ska8.com participates in affiliate programs. When you click on a product link on this site and complete a purchase through that link, we may earn a referral commission. The affiliate program provider pays us a small percentage of the sale price.
This comes at zero additional cost to you. The products you buy through our links are priced the same as buying them directly from the retailer.
Which Programs We Participate In
We may participate in one or more of the following affiliate programs (and similar platforms):
- Amazon Associates program
- Individual brand and manufacturer affiliate programs
- Retailer-specific referral partnerships
How This Affects Our Content
Our affiliate earnings do not influence our product reviews, recommendations, or rankings. We evaluate gear based on:
- Build quality and materials
- Value for price
- Performance in real skating conditions
- Safety and durability
- User comfort and fit
If a product does not meet our standards, we will not recommend it regardless of the commission structure.
Advertisements
This site also displays advertisements through Google AdSense. These ads are placed automatically based on your browsing history and interests. We do not control which specific ads appear.
Bottom Line
We aim to give honest, useful skate content first. Affiliate commissions and advertising help keep the lights on so we can continue publishing guides, reviews, and resources at no cost to you.
