Vert Finals

Skateboarder: Rebecca Aimee Davies

Photographer: Jamie O'Clock
The Vert Finals at Slam City Jam were intense - Native Canadian Pierre-Luc Gagnon took first and $15,000 US. Bob Burnquist won second and a check for $8,000, while Bucky Lasek took third and $5,000. With last week's stop on the Dew Tour, Bucky has had a good month!

In Women's vert, Cara-Beth Burnside won first for $2,500, Mimi Knoop won second for $1,250, and Lyn-Z Adams Hawkins won third and $800.

This photo is of Rebecca Aimee Davies - a 13 year old girl from North Wales, Great Britain. Rebecca is new to the world competitive skateboarding scene, was on the practice ramp every moment she could, and held her own with the pros, winning 7th out of 9! It's exciting to see young new skaters from all over the world at events like Slam City Jam!
