X-Games 16 - Electric Athletes - Four Medals

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.

X-Games 16 - Electric Athletes - Four Medals

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.

ISF Skateboarding World Championships

Electric’s Pierre-Luc Gagnon - 2010 ISF Skateboarding World Champ

SATURDAY, JUNE 26TH, 2010 | ISF SKATEBOARDING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS | BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS

PLG takes the Vert Win and becomes ISF World Champ. With four 30-second runs allotted in the 12-minute finals, the ordered jam rewarded event winner Pierre-Luc Gagnon for his consistency and endless flip tricks, naming him the 2010 ISF Skateboarding World Champ and Dew Tour points leader.

PLG’s highest scored runs included a big 540 into a kickflip mute, another big 540 over the channel, then four flip tricks back-to-back. He busted out a kickflip melon, kickflip Indy, kickflip mute to fakie and switch heelflip 360. Even after nailing his runs, he couldn’t help thinking about Bob and Bucky missing from the final competition.

Electric’s Pierre-Luc Gagnon - 2010 ISF Skateboarding World Champ

Electric would like to extend a huge shout out to PLG for being one of the best Vert skaters in the world and continuing to be on top at every contest he enters.

Wild In The Parks Championships

Wild in the parks championships

SEPT 26TH 2009 | WILD IN THE PARKS CHAMPIONSHIPS | RIO VISTA SKATEPARK — PEORIA, AZ

This past Saturday brought out the finest collection of amateur skateboarders to the Rio Vista Skatepark for the season ender of the WITP Champs. With 212 competitors all skating in well over 100 degree weather, you knew it was going to be a long hot day of pure talent. The kids started showing up well before the contest started just to get some practice in and work on their tricks for the day.

Wild in the parks championships

All the kids were stoked to win the big cash prizes and couldn’t wait for the product give-a-ways!

Wild in the parks championships

The groms in the 14 & Under division kicked it off and really set the bar high for the 15 & Over and Pro-Am divisions to follow them up.

Wild in the parks championships

The “OOOHS & AAAHS” from the crowds in all three zones were making each and every competitor take it to the next level. So by the time the sun was setting and the finals were underway the real talent and competitive attitudes were starting to shine.

Wild in the parks championships

Big shout out to Electric’s $1,000 check “Hype of the Day” winner, Matt Penington, for his 360 Hardflip.

Wild in the parks championships

Electric would like to give big high fives to Volcom and Jeff Arnold’s Crew for making the 2009 WITP Championships a day to remember. Bang, Bang, Bang!!!
