Fortnite: Player celebrates new driftboard, builds spectacular skate park

Fortnite Battle Royale Skate Drift Board Titel

The Drift-Board is popular among many players in Fortnite . Some are so happy about it that they build skate parks and perform tricks there. But basketball fans also get their money’s worth.

What is the Driftboard? This is a new mode of transportation from Patch 7.40 in Fortnite: Battle Royale. While you ride on the board, you can use weapons and items. The boards are scattered all over the map.

However, the boards will only remain in Fortnite for a few days. Some players are already making the most of it and showing cool tricks.
