About This Episode

Alex and Marcos Macías built Bayskate to bring something Miami has been missing for years — a world-class roller skating experience rooted in music, culture, and pure nostalgia. In this episode they walk us through the idea behind Bayskate, the cultural importance of roller skating, and how they created 10,000 square feet of skating space right in the heart of Coconut Grove.

We get into the music, the production, special nights, skate rentals, tickets, party reservations, and the inspiration they drew from Oasis in NYC. This isn't just a skating rink — it's an experience designed to bring people together and bring back a feeling Miami hasn't had in a long time.
