Curren Caples
Pro Since 2013BIOGRAPHY
Curren Caples is no longer the newcomer with promise. The Ventura native is the present and future of skateboarding. Since making his X Games debut in 2010, he's added two gold medals and a silver to his trophy case, won specialty events around the globe and established himself as one of premiere talents in the world. With a style that is equal parts surf and skate inspired – a la Jay Adams of Z-Boys fame – Caples attacks the park and street course with an approach that is 100-percent his own. With a mix of flashy airs and smooth tech tricks, he's one of the most dynamic skaters in the scene.
