Nyjah Huston
Appropriately deemed "The X-Factor" by ESPN Magazine as the sole pro-skater who will change the course of the sport over the next decade, pro streetskating phenom and newest addition to the prestigious Nike SB team, NYJAH HUSTON has monopolized the world of action sports. Bringing home seven X-Games gold medals and winning the "Best Male Action Sports Athlete" award at the 2013 and 2014 ESPY Awards consecutively, he aptly remains the face of skateboarding worldwide.
Well on his way to eclipsing the iconic careers of his predecessors, 23-year-old Huston stands supported by no accomplishments but his own. The record youngest X-Games competitor since the age of 11 has collected back-to-back Street League championships (including the inaugural crown and this year's 2017 Supercrown), and remains the coveted Trans-world title holder for "Best Street," "Reader's Choice," and "Best Video Part" for "Rise & Shine"— only the second time in the 17-year history of the awards that a skater has won three categories.
