| TERRY KENNEDY From appearing on MTV and getting the covers of magazines to running with gangs and even getting shot, TK's been through it all. True to his "I gotta be me" attitude Terry was let go from Element because he wasn't wearing enough of their product. So he went back to Baker, his first pro home. Growing up in Long Beach was a tough go with lots of opportunity to go wrong but Terry made it through. Check some of his big style here: TK | | |

| MARK APPLEYARD Hailing from Toronto Ontario, Canada, Mark would actually shovel snow from his local skatepark in the winter so he could rip the frozen icy concrete.

| GREG LUTZKA Greg has been basically hitting a lot of contests and bank deposit machines as he racks up his winnings. Greg's consistency has won him many high profile contests in the last year, but his win at the prestigious "Slam City Jam" is the one that may have propelled him to super stardom, that's if he was not already one. A great all around guy that everyone cannot help but like, Greg's charisma is a big selling point for his sponsors. HURRY UP & DIE | | |
