If you’re playing Schedule 1 and want to grab the legendary Golden Skateboard for free without actually losing your money, there’s a clever in-game trick you need to know. This method not only lets you get the Golden skateboard for free, but also turns into a free money glitch if you repeat it right.
First, you’ll need $1,500 in-game currency. Just take it out from any ATM—don’t stress about it, because you’ll be getting it right back.

Once you’ve got the cash, wait until around 5 PM and head over to the Shred Shack, the skate shop that sells the golden skateboard. You can check your phone for the time.

💡 Tip: You might want to save the game at this point just in case you mess up.
Before it’s 6 PM buy the Golden Skateboard. Pay the $1,500, and walk away with your board, don’t worry, you will be getting your money back. Here’s where things get interesting.

Stick around the outside of the skate shop and hide—behind a tree or just near the building works fine. Wait until the clock hits 6:00 PM, because that’s when the shop owner (Jeff) will lock up and walk out the side door.
As soon as he does, sneak behind him and pickpocket the $1,500 right back.

💡 Tip: If you mess up, don’t worry—just reload a saved game right before the moment and try again. Eventually, you’ll get it clean.
Once you have the golden skateboard and your money back, head over to the pawn shop. You can sell the golden board there, and if you repeat the trick, you can sell multiple at once. In one run, selling two golden skateboards earned us $2,900, all without spending a dime.

This is one of the best free money tricks in Schedule 1 right now, and it’s completely repeatable. Just time it right, don’t get caught, and you’ll be stacking cash and skateboards in no time.
