The perfect ending at the perfect park, the Damn Am Netherlands Finals are one to remember. Daiki Ikeda takes his SECOND win of the 2022 Damn Am contest series.
Here’s how Daiki Ikeda won Damn Am LA 2022.
The Damn Am is a completely different kind of Battle at The Berrics. This one was all about who could put down the best 60 seconds of ripping, and the skaters from Japan proved they were up to the challenge. All of the 12 Finalists earned their spots into Tampa Am in November so the battle rages on.
The Saturday Qualifier consists of the cream of the crop in amateur talent. And by the end of the day 70 out of the original 100 will get the axe. Worth the trouble? Definitely. Easy? Not so much.
The most legendary contest in skateboarding is BACK! It’s the 27th Tampa Am and more than 250 skaters from everywhere have returned to SPoT for a crack at shredding their way to stoke and glory.
