The American professional skateboarder Zion Wright has fully forced his way on winning the Men's Park Finals Dew Tour in Des Moines 2021.
Wright was ranked #16 for USA Skateboarding and #114 internationally in the World Skate points ranking for Olympic quota spots.
Wright was super hyped when he realized he made the cut.
He said. “I was dealing with a bunch of injuries in the past when all of this started to get points, so my approach to this event was just kind of to dedicate my all to it, go hard, and see what comes out of it. I guess it paid off! I’ve dealt with so many emotions… it’s been a journey for sure. It feels really good.”
The regular-footed skater also said that he felt good because he got to share the podium with his good friends Oskar Rozeneberg and with Gavin Bottger.
“It’s skateboarding at the end and beginning of the day,” Wright said. “Skateboarding is a cultural type thing and it’s all love: we all love each other so it’s like, why not be able to support everyone and be able to give it up for each other.”
