The Des Moines Streetstyle Open encapsulates the spirit of authentic skateboarding.

This multi-day event represents all aspects of skating from the culture to the tricks. Whether its traditional contests at the world-class skatepark, cash for tricks at a gnarly street spot or an after-party with skate art and live music, the Streetstyle Open has it all.

Now entering its 5th year, the Des Moines Streetstyle Open is a must attend event for Midwest skaters and our friends from across the country.
