Back Board back bling can be earned by completing challenges

The Back Board back bling has several different styles that players can choose from. Two of them, Cuddle Kickflip and Llamasploded, will be obtainable from Fall Fest challenges.

Besides the free back bling, Fortnite Battle Royale players will also be able to earn the Taco Takeoff loading screen and Above the Clouds wrap.

It's important to note that the Back Board back bling has a couple of other styles. At the moment, it is unclear if players will be able to obtain the others for free. However, there are chances that Epic Games will release them to the Item Shop where gamers will be able to buy them for V-Bucks.

Fall Fest challenges are all about the Creative mode and players will have to join custom maps in order to complete them. However, the good news is that most of them are extremely easy, so earning the Back Board back bling shouldn't be difficult.


A look at other Fall Fest challenges

The Fall Fest Fortnite Battle Royale challenges go live on August 30 and players have until September 6 to complete them. Epic Games will most likely release v21.51 on September 6, which will be a smaller update, but the final one for Chapter 3 Season 3.

The Back Board has two other styles, Goofy Fin and Brite Boarder. However, it appears that they haven't been released yet.

Here is the list of all Fall Fest challenges that are available in the game:
