Best skaters of 2008

Friday January 2, 2009
With the year coming crashing to a close, and it's time to look back and honor the best skaters of the year. But, ranking the best skater is almost impossible, since some of the best skaters don't like to compete! But we do have World Cup Skateboarding, and they have released their list of the top 3 skaters in each discipline, according to pointed skateboarding competitions. Take a look at the Top skaters of 2008!

There are also a couple of other things to look at when thinking about the top pro skaters in competition this year - the X Games, where the World Cup Skateboarding points lead, and the AST Dew Tour, which has quickly grown into a huge force in skateboarding. You can check out the final rankings for X Games, and the AST Dew Tour, for more.
