What a hero... Kurt destroys everything you put in front of him on a snowboard or skateboard. Downhill, freeride, miniramp, bowls, slalom - he skates it all. Currently ranked as one of the fastest ten people down a hill on a skateboard on the planet, the chances are he's going to be drafting and passing you pretty quick. But more important than that, he's more than likely the dude behind the decks and on the mic at the race afterparty, keeping everyone cool after a hard day of bombing hills. He's super mellow, really amped to be on a skateboard, and you'd never know all the crazy stuff that runs through his head - there's a lot going on in there... THE RACE IS THE REASON FOR THE PARTY!

Kurt rides: Globe 33 Globe 41 Kilima Spooky (look out for his new race board coming soon...)
