Sakar International slides in with Epic Games and Fortnite

Sakar International has teamed up with Epic Games to bring Fortnite fans a line of skateboards and helmets based on the game.

Gamers across the US will begin to see Fortnite-themed skateboards online for Black Friday this year and in stores for 2023.

There will be ready-to-ride skateboard models, individual decks and protective helmets in a variety of designs and styles. The skateboards will feature fan-favourite characters and imagery from the game.

The deal was brokered by IMG.

“We are very excited to bring gamers everywhere the opportunity to represent Fortnite even when they’re not playing,” commented Ralph Sasson, coo at Sakar. “Fortnite has become an iconic piece of pop culture, and Sakar couldn’t be happier to be partnering with Epic Games on this new line of products.”
