When asked what’s your career highlight so far, Luka said “being the first kid to wear tight pants in Slovenia (now everybody do it haha).” That’s why we love Luka. Apart from the tight pant thing, Luka is just 19 years old and already getting coverage in top Euro mags, on the Forum Young Blood team and managing to Podium at a bunch of Euro competitions. This Slovenian ripper is the one to watch out for!

AKA: yugo

DOB: 6.4.1991

Born: Slovenj Gradec, SLO

Resides: Braslovče, SLO

Hobbies: motocross, traveling

Favourite Quote: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger

It’s not easy being a Slovenian snowboarder trying to break out onto the Euro scene. But if you shred hard, have good style and are generally an all round awesome kid, then someone is bound to take notice. That’s exactly why Luka is on the European Dragon team.

Luka will be travelling the globe from comp to comp, filming, shooting with photographers and getting a few more tricks in the bag. So keep your eye out for this 19 year old Yugo in 2011/12.

Spencer Obrien wins Dew Cup!!!Read more...
The women kicked off the event bright and early at 9 am. There were 6 women in today’s final, but it really was just a battle between two, Spencer O’Brien and Enni Rukajärvi. Enni was in the lead all morning with her run that consisted of an amazing backside 540 indy, to a cab 5. But right at the very end, during the final run of the contest, Spencer O’Brien put down her run of a switch backside 540 to a frontside rodeo 720. It was clearly the winning run, and she took home the win and the Dew cup. I don’t know what it is about the women’s events this weekend, but they sure loved to d... [ more ]
