Defending Big Air gold medalist Bob Burnquist has three things in his life: family, skateboarding and flying. Between the latter two, he's rarely on the ground. He has his personal backyard mega ramp, he's a newly certified helicopter pilot and he's been flying aerobatic tailwheel airplanes. Always innovative, he was the first skater in history to land a 900 on a big air quarterpipe (his was fakie-to-fakie). He'll flash his skill, including switch, in XG Big Air and Vert. Bob is one of just four athletes who has competed at every X Games, and his skill and dedication has earned him 21 XG medals, tied for second-most in XG history.
