Welcome to the 0.29.5 patch notes! This patch goes live on December 15, and includes bug fixes for issues discovered after Season 2’s launch, and some gameplay improvements. If you haven’t yet, take a look at our Season 2 article to discover the new skateable locations, brands, soundtrack additions, and skate.Pass that arrived on December 2.
General Improvements
Replaced the Peach Puree Cargoes cosmetic with the Brown Tie-Dye Jeans in the Down Low Product Box.
Gameplay Improvements
Routine maintenance of San Van’s infrastructure has had some unexpected results. Liability details can be found on page seven of your ‘Welcome to the Rip Initiative’ introductory booklet.
Community Parks will now consist of natural wood tones to be more visually appealing.
Developer’s Note: The aesthetic of Community Parks will change to natural wood tones on December 15. From December 16–January 14, the aesthetic will change again for Winter Rollstice, our holiday event. After the event concludes, Community Parks will revert back to their new default wood tones.

We’ve made an update to the UI of the Quick Drop menu, adding a new category called Interactive. This category is where items like the bouncy Quick Drop umbrella (previously located under the Props category) will be moving forward.
