Men’s Skateboard Vert | Skateboard Vert Best Trick
Pierre-Luc Gagnon (PLG) made history by winning gold in Skateboard Vert and taking home Gold in Best Trick. Friday night marked the first time a skateboarder has won X Vert three times in a row. PLG landed two nearly perfect runs to take home Vert Gold, he landed a Nollie Varial Indy 540, which secured him the Gold in Vert Best Trick.

Women’s Skateboard Vert
Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins Take home the Silver Medal. Lyn-Z is one of the worlds best Women’s Vert skater and if she would have landed her Mctwist, she not only would have won but also be the first Girl to land a Mctwist in a contest run.
Moto X Best Whip
Electric’s young Australian Jarryd McNeil took home a Silver Medal doing some of the best turn downs I have ever witnessed in Best Whip. Jarryd pretty much through his bike around like it was a toy. Stay tuned for this young Moto star as we will be seeing more and more of him.
Shouts go out to all the Electric Athletes who competed in Summer X Games 16.
