MESA, Calif., May 30, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Vans Global Skateboarder Arisa Trew is making history in skateboarding.
In 2023, she shattered barriers by becoming the first woman to land
a 720 on a skateboard and then the first to perform the trick in a
competition run, clinching the Women's Skateboard Vert gold at X
Games California 2023. The next day, she added another feather to
her cap by winning the Women's Skateboard Park Gold, making her the
youngest X Games double gold medalist at 13. These remarkable
achievements led to her being honored with the 2024 Laureus World
Sports Award for Action Sports Person of the Year. Following the
award, Arisa became the first woman to land a Switch 540. Now,
she's taking Skateboarding to even greater heights by becoming the
first female to land a 900, a feat accomplished 25 years after
Tony Hawk's groundbreaking
achievement.

"I was in so much shock when I landed the 900; it's been a dream
of mine since I made my first 540. It's just awesome pushing
women's skateboarding," said Arisa
Trew.
Congratulations to Arisa for her unwavering determination in
pushing skateboarding forward, a testament to her relentless
pursuit of progression that continues to inspire future
generations.
