Tampa Am 2023 is coming…
Tampa Am returns for the 29th time. In 1995 there were no nationally recognized amateur skate contests. Then came Tampa Am. After the first year as a mostly local event, the second Tampa Am, which was famously won by Donny Barley, created a phenomenon. Today, Tampa Am is an institution that’s accepted as the Amateur National Championship. As the level of skating continues to rise, so does Tampa Am’s reputation as the most important contest in skateboarding.
