As skaters we all know how much fun it is to travel and skate out of town. Here are a few tips to help you save hella’ money.

Book your hotel rooms early: This can be a big money save because the longer you wait the higher the hotel fairs will be. You don’t want to be stuck paying a high price for the room that you will barely stay in, you will be out partying and having fun.

Travel with a group: Traveling with a group of people is another way to say big bucks on a trip. If your drive to your skate destination you will appreciate the fact of having multiple drivers. Driving to the skate event is never a hard task but driving back when everyone is dead tired is another story!

When traveling in a group it is a good idea to keep it to a minimum: I recommend the max amount of people to a car and a room to be three. You want to be comfortable on the ride down and back. More than three people to a room can become cramp very quickly. If you keep it to the recommended minimum there will be no battles over bathroom time and your wait time before an activity will be less, unless your the type of person to leave everyone if their not ready.

A man, I think I ummmm, I think lost my money: Make sure everyone puts in the money before they leave for the trip. People have a tendency to “loose their money” before the trip is over. You wont be saving any money If you have to put your share of money up as well as someone else’s.

Purchase your skate event tickets early: Buy your skate event tickets early! You will only save a couple of dollars but dollars add up! You can get something to eat with the extra money you save from skate ticket savings.
