Ryan Sheckler Wins The Dew Tour In Boston

It was just like old times in Boston as the Dew Tour held its first skateboarding event of the season — the Dew Tour’s Skate Open, which also served as the first-ever ISF (Internation Skateboarding Federation) Skateboarding World Championships. Three-time Dew Cup champ Ryan Sheckler took the Skate Park title and two-time Dew Cup winner Bucky Lasek scored first in Skate Vert.
Both were also crowned the first ever ISF Skateboarding World Champions of their respective disciplines
With a score of 91.03, Sheckler beat out an all-star list of skaters in the park finals including first-time Dew Tour competitors Ryan Decenzo (second place) and Dennis Busenitz as well as Dew Tour podium regulars Chaz Ortiz, Paul Rodriguez and Greg Lutzka. Sheckler’s first-place finish included back-to-back frontside lips, boardslides and 5-0’s.
“It’s crazy that I’m the World Champion,” said Sheckler. “These guys out here are absolutely amazing and it could have been anyone’s day. Today was my day, and I’m excited to see what happens on the rest of the Dew Tour stops.”
Decenzo went through four rounds of International Qualifiers in his professional debut and came out with a second-place finish, pulling tricks like a nollie heel to flat and a switch 180 to Smith down the rail. Chris Cole wowed the crowd with a front blunt to fakie down the rail and a 360 lip down the rail to round out the podium with a score of 87.93.
“What a great way to start the Dew Tour here in Boston,” said Cole. “Being from Philly, it’s always great to skate on the East Coast.”

Bucky Lasek Wins The Dew Tour In Boston

Lasek took home the world title at the skateboard vert finals, with a run that included a heelflip stalefish and a nollie heel stale, earning him a score of 92.50. Lasek’s last first-place podium finish on the Dew Tour was at the first stop of the 2008 season.
“The first Dew Tour stop this season kind of crept up on me but I had a lot of fun out there,” said Lasek. “I usually ride on a bowl so I wasn’t used to wall-to-wall, but it was great and feels good to be the world champion.”
Pierre-Luc Gagnon pulled out a 720 and a fakie 540 to earn his second-place finish with a score of 90.75. A hometown crowd cheered on Andy Macdonald’s runs, which included a backside 540 and a gay twist to earn him the third-place spot.

Ryan Sheckler was born in San Clemente, California. When he was just 18 months old, Sheckler found his dad’s old-school skateboard. Sheckler taught himself to push it around using one knee, and eventually stood up on the skateboard.

He developed his own trick called the Sheck-lair – an indy kickflip flyout. This video was taken of Ryan when he was about 9 years old. It has his mom and dad at the beginning, young ryan pushing around vans skatepark back in the day and it ends with his brother Shane ollieing off a quarter pipe at the end.

Plan B Skateboards new line of skateboard decks are coming out soon and they are looking good. New decks for Danny Way, Colin McKay, Pat Duffy, Ryan Sheckler, Paul Rodriguez, Jereme Rogers, PJ Ladd, Ryan Gallant and Brian Wenning.

Here is a video clip shot back in 2000 at an event called the Cybernet 2000 Festival. We brought out the Red Bull Vert Ramp and had Tony Hawk and Ryan Sheckler come out and do a little doubles skateboarding. I remember this day very well because it was the first day that I dropped in on the ramp and I ended up busting my elbow. I had to shoot this video clip with a busted elbow which sucked and needless to say that was the day my vert career ended and it was very short lived. Anyway Ryan was a little kid back then and he could skate vert pretty good. The ramp was very slick and and hard to skate but those guys ripped it up anyway. Until I rendered myself useless I was part of the set up crew for the vert ramp. Everything went so fast because it is all built out of steel and a forklift can move all of the heavy parts around with ease. The Red Bull ramp actually snaps together in 4 foot sections with the deck and coping. All of the transitions get connected on the ground and you just stand it up and pop it into place and this is all done in about 4 hours.
