Bob Burnquist

An innovator of modern vert skating. The first person to do the loop switch. Moved from Sau Paulo, Brazil, to the US in the early 90s. He swiftly gained great respect from the skateboarding world. At his first pro contest in the US he left his peers awe struck with his groundbreaking switch stance trickery; an area of vert skating that, at the time, had not been explored. To this day he is still an innovator. He is currently in the process if building the worlds first permanant big air ramp.
