About
The Boardr Live is the go-to platform for skateboarding and BMX event management, used by organizers ranging from local contests to top-tier global competitions. The platform provides a full suite of tools to plan, execute, and publish results for any skating or BMX event. At its core, The Boardr Live scoring app allows organizers to manage heats, track live scores, and display results in a professional format accessible to participants and spectators alike.

The platform aggregates results from both its own event series (The Boardr Series) and major industry events, feeding into comprehensive global and regional rankings for skateboarders and BMX riders. Members gain access to detailed Global Rankings reports, special data projects, and deeper analytics. The platform also logs major skate videos on YouTube and provides blog and contest coverage with photos and video recaps. Whether you are an independent organizer looking to run a local bowl contest or a governing body managing a national series, The Boardr Live delivers the infrastructure to present your event professionally and keep rankings up to date across the industry.
