Professional skateboarder Ryan Gallant has spent years perfecting his skills on a skateboard, known for his smooth style and technical ability on gaps, handrails and ledges.
But recently, he’s been focusing on something entirely different - water treatment.
The longtime pro skater has officially stepped into a new role, earning his Household Sales Representative Certification with Culligan, a well-known name in water filtration and treatment systems.
For those who’ve followed Gallant’s career, this might seem like a fresh direction, but for him, it’s all about growth and securing his future.
Skateboarding requires dedication, precision, and the ability to adapt on the dot. All of which came in handy during his training with Culligan.
The Household Sales Representative Bootcamp isn’t just about selling a product; it’s an in-depth program covering water science, filtration technology, customer engagement, and the best ways to help households find the right solutions.
Participants go through sales pitch development, field exercises, and real-world case studies to sharpen their ability to connect with customers.
Understanding lead generation, effective negotiation, and ethical selling is key to making an impact in the industry, and Gallant took it all in stride.
Gallant’s experience in the skate world gave him a unique edge.
Years of working with sponsors, promoting brands, and engaging with the community meant he already understood the basics of marketing and customer relationships.
Instead of selling skateboards, he’s now helping people improve their water quality. A shift that feels just as rewarding.
Though he’s now a certified sales rep, Gallant hasn’t hung up his board.
He’s still skating regularly and staying involved in the community. Whether it’s dropping a new clip, hitting a demo, or helping someone find the best water filtration system for their home, he’s bringing the same dedication to everything he does.
And just like that, one of skateboarding’s smoothest stylists is making moves on and off the board.
