Notable:
X Games will be blessed once again with the skating of Ricky Oyola, one of last true skaters who has made his living off of skating the streets. In the mid-90's he put Philadelphia on the global skate map with his aggressive approach to street skating. He is now married and has two children but that doesn't keep him off his skateboard. The best thing about Ricky is his personality; he isn't concerned with what people think of him, especially not the industry.

Quote:
"Always being out in the street pushing and being within the environment is my favorite thing to do."
