Chris Joslin
A skater’s skater, Chris Joslin has been inspiring for years. Both a father and the purest form of skate rat he’s an all-around threat any time he steps on a skateboard. Boasting an impressive resume of contest results and podium finishes at the highest level of competition, Joslin is a deserving member of USA Skateboarding’s Olympic National team. And while the results are all well and good, the man has also produced some of the most talked about video parts in skateboarding.
Spending the majority of his childhood at the local skatepark, his breakout year came in 2014 when he dropped a game changing video part in Plan B Skateboards’ “True,” which led to him being awarded the coveted “AM of the Year” award. The rest is history as Joslin has only continued to take the sport to new heights.
Off his board, Joslin stays busy working with his sponsors to constantly progress and innovate product and the industry with his signature lines of shoes, boards, wheels and clothing, all while raising two young kids.

I learned a lot through skateboarding: confidence, determination—I didn’t even know I was practicing. I was so young that I just thought it was fun.
