"Eight" - A League Above

8 – A Revolutionary Skating & Art Showdown

Presented by America(n) Art Academy

Welcome to 8, an electrifying new project that brings together 88 skaters, 8 filmmakers, and 8 artists in a battle of creativity, skill, and vision. These 104 contenders will be divided into eight teams, each featuring one skater, one filmmaker, and one artist, forging a unique fusion of motion, storytelling, and artistic expression.

The Format

Contestants will be revealed two at a time, setting the stage for intense matchups that will establish the founding rank of all eight teams. Each team will create a 4-minute video project—a cinematic, artistic, and skate-driven masterpiece—competing for the #1 spot.

Who Decides the Winner?

The power is in the hands of the #Hoverheads, the core membership tier of the America(n) Art Academy Patreon. These dedicated supporters, along with a curated group of futurists and future lovers, will cast their votes to determine the ultimate champions.

A Legacy in Motion

Born from the viral hoverboard movement, 8 is more than just a competition—it’s a statement on the evolution of art, movement, and innovation. It’s a celebration of those who push boundaries, redefine culture, and ride the edge of the future.

Are you ready to witness the next chapter in skating and art? Stay locked in. The battle begins soon.
