Notable:
Kurt Wastell is an incredibly well-rounded rider who excels in the pipe, park, urban environment, or big mountain. He has been plagued with injuries that have kept him from showing his skills to the world. From a bulging disc after WX IV, to a bruised kidney and blown right ACL after WX V, Kurt has been down, but not out.

"Since the injuries I've learned a lot about the importance of the gym and staying in shape, My therapist and good friend Scott Blatt in southern CA has helped me get in the best shape I think I've ever been in. During the downtime I just do physical therapy and try to stay positive."
