Lace up for some monster-sized big air! UNLEASHED welcomes Mega Ramp skateboard innovator and five-time X Games gold medalist Elliot Sloan. In the exclusive interview with podcast hosts The Dingo and Danny, the 33-year-old shares his rags to riches journey from unknown East Coast skate rat to the world’s #1 competitor in Skateboard Big Air.
Born and raised in New York City, Sloan started skateboarding outside the industry’s spotlight. After building his halfpipe skills at local parks out East, he took the gamble of moving to California with dreams of becoming a sponsored pro. And it worked: After claiming his first X Games gold in the Big Air discipline in 2013, Sloan joined the elite field of Mega Ramp innovators. Today, he owns 13 X Games medals (5 gold, 6 silver, 2 bronze) and endorses a pro model skateboard on Tony Hawk’s company, Birdhouse. Training at his private compound in Vista, California, Sloan continues pushing the boundaries of vertical skateboarding and living the dream.
