AUSTRALIA’S ARISA TREW MADE HISTORY ON MAY 29…
…becoming the first woman skateboarder to land a 900.
It’s been a wild 12 months for the teen. She enjoyed the best X Games of any 13-year-old ever in 2023, earning gold medals in Women’s Skateboard Park AND Skateboard Vert. That smashed a record Shaun White set 20 years ago as the youngest to win two gold at one X Games and made Arisa the first female skateboarder to do the double. Oh, and she also used the first 720 in a woman’s vert contest for a dramatic walk-off victory.
And now the just-turned 14-year-old has a 900. Prepare for more never-been-dones at X Games Ventura 2024: “My personal goals for X Games will be to win Vert and Park and Vert Best Trick, and also land a 900, hopefully,” Arisa says matter-of-factly.
