Have you ever seen a skate rink inside a church? Founded in 2013, The Church of 8 Wheels, which is located in San Francisco’s Fillmore District, is an abandoned 19th-century church transformed into a disco skate paradise.

Host Alesha Bell leads the crew and contestants Jayla and Jessie to this angelic anomaly to not only learn a little bit about San Francisco Skating culture from the Godfather of Skating, David Miles Jr., but also how to skate. It’s fast, it’s fun, it’s groovy, it’s the Field Trip Game!

Credits: Host- Alesha Bell, Director-Tyler Luu, Camera- Isaiah Johnson,  Jamareion Adrow, , Sound – Emiliano Villa, Producers – Mariam Coulibaly, Amanda Vigil, Unit Photographer – Cheyenne Bearfoot, Contestants – Jessie Lin, Jayla Reid 

Special Shout out to our Skaters:  Juan Cavalleiro, Kristian Cruz, Luke Daenen, Violet Gardunomy, Jenn Gudgel, Samantha Jimenez Garcia, Alicia Reason, Noelle Skool, D’wana Stewart, Joseph Russing, Eric J. Mendoza and Esteban Guevara
