Ryan Sheckler invites the world’s best skateboarders to a one-of-a-kind street course in Detroit’s Hart Plaza. Returning for its third year with an improved course layout, Hart Lines will have even more room for skaters to stomp stylish tricks.
Rolling With Leticia Bufoni at Hart Lines
When Leticia Bufoni got a personal message from Ryan Sheckler inviting her to compete at his signature street skateboarding event, she was naturally skeptical. She’d never been to Detroit, the course was unlike anything she’d ever seen and, well, no girls had ever skated in the comp before. So it took some peer pressure from Felipe Gustavo to get her to commit, and that’s how she found herself competing with the boys in Hart Plaza.
Nyjah Huston, Curren Caples & More Throw Down at Red Bull Hart Lines 2016
Snow flurries fell from the Detroit sky above Hart Plaza, and with thousands hanging over the walls of the Hart Lines course, they witnessed a level of street skateboarding beyond anything expected. Nyjah Huston, skating at the event for the first time in 2016, put on a technical masterclass over the two-lane course. He’ll take the trophy and a clean $35,000 back to California for his efforts. Last year’s defending champ, Curren Caples, flew through the course on pace for his second-place finish, and the Belgian blur Axel Cruysberghs came in third. Take a look back at some of the top moments from the event.
Final Results:
1. Nyjah Huston
2. Curren Caples
3. Axel Cruysberghs
4. Louie Lopez
5. Evan Smith
