This is How Tom Asta Became One of the Best Skateboarders Alive: True Grit | Santa Cruz Skateboards

Life comes at all of us differently. Some people use their situation as an excuse and others use it to fuel their fire. Tom Asta grew up in Langhorne, Pennsylvania and still calls it home to this day. One of the more humble people we’ve met, Tom takes you through coming up in the skate industry that was based on the other side of the country, with no plans of ever “Going Pro”. Natural talent and his great attitude brought him to the likes of Chris Cole and Jamie Thomas who helped him become the seasoned Pro he is today. Santa Cruz is proud to present to you the Tom Asta True Grit.
