In a night full of surprises on Britain’s Got Talent Episode 4 (airing tonight at 6:45 PM UK time on ITV/ITVX), the high-octane stunt group The Skate Squad delivered an adrenaline-pumping performance that had the judges and audience roaring with excitement.

This multi-member UK-based team combined scooter tricks, skateboarding, and roller-skating elements into a fast-paced, synchronized routine packed with ramps, flips, grinds, and daring jumps.

Their act brought pure energy and teamwork to the stage, fitting perfectly into the episode’s mix of variety—from James Miller’s soaring vocals to Aditya Kodmur’s card-throwing chaos with KSI.

The Skate Squad advanced with strong yes votes from judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, KSI, and guest Stacey Solomon (who appeared in Birmingham-filmed segments).

While no Golden Buzzer act was pressed for them in previews or initial coverage, their precision stunts and crowd-pleasing spectacle earned widespread praise for raising the bar on extreme sports acts.

Judges were visibly impressed by the risk level and coordination—Simon and Amanda often react strongly to high-danger performances, and this one delivered thrills without major mishaps.

Who Are The Skate Squad?

  • Act Type: Scooter stunt / extreme sports collective (scooters, skateboards, roller skates)
  • Members: A dynamic group of riders from across the UK, emphasizing teamwork and urban sports flair
  • Style: High-speed flips, synchronized moves, and showmanship that blends BMX/scooter culture with entertainment

They represent the UK’s thriving extreme sports scene, drawing inspiration from past BGT skating acts like Rollabatics (Rosie & Adam) or Billy & Emily England, but scaled up with squad energy for bigger impact.

Background & Journey

The team members honed their skills in skate parks and competitions nationwide, building expertise through years of practice and community events.

This BGT audition—filmed during the Birmingham sessions—was their major breakout TV moment, showcasing how dedication turns street skills into stage spectacle. No prior major TV appearances are noted, making tonight’s performance their national spotlight.

Tonight’s Performance Context

Aired as part of Episode 1904 (after a brief scheduling break for the Six Nations Final), the routine featured rapid builds, near-misses for tension, and impressive group coordination.

It stood out amid the episode’s lineup, including The Hawkstone Farmers Choir’s heartfelt singing, Anastasiia & Salsa’s dance, and Aqua Dance’s sexy vibes. The Skate Squad’s high-risk tricks added edge-of-your-seat excitement, proving variety is key this season.

Fans online are already calling it one of the episode’s most thrilling highlights, with clips likely exploding on the official BGT YouTube and socials. Could their style earn them a spot in the semi-finals or inspire a future Golden Buzzer push?
